Hi, I‘m from Germany and I saw your book on a Facebook group from Spain. I deal with especially Bavarian duty marches of the 18th and 19th century. The second duty march of the official bavarian militia troops ordinance is called „General Marsch“. Maybe there is a connection between the „General“ in your book and the bavarian General Marsch. General Marsch was a signal for departure in the 18th century, and an emergency signal for an unforeseen departure in the 19th century. Compareable with „To Arms“ from Mr. Goulding. Another interesting aspect is, that the german word „Alarm“ (english: emergency) derives from the french „A les armes -> A‘l armes“ which means „To Arms“! A little bit crazy 😅
Looking at the older Bavarian sources, I do see some rhythmic similarity in the 1781 Churfürstlich pfalzbayerische regiments-streich version of the General Marsch. I’m not a Bavarian expert by any means, and I had not noticed this before. I did check the Italian signal against the Austrian, Swiss, Spanish, and Sicilian/Neapolitan signals that outwardly correspond and they are not very rhythmically similar. The British and American signals are very similar. I’m not sure if I looked at the Bavarian closely when writing this book. The 1807 Bürger-Militärs version is definitely less similar. That is certainly interesting that the Bavarian signal somewhat corresponds to the unlikely club of Italy and England/America. Much of the rest of the Italian duty is based on the French. This seems to warrant further investigation. Thanks for mentioning it. Please share any other insights you may think of. Thanks!
@@RyanAlexanderBloom wow, I‘m impressed you know the churpfalz baierische and Bürgermilitärs Ordinances! I talked about the Bürgermilitärs version. But fact is, that the signal General Marsch in german speaking armies (Switzerland, Austria, Bavaria and so on) is an emergency signal. By the way I ordered your book 👍🥁
I know about a lot of things. I’m not always sure I understand them, but I have a collection of primary Bavarian sources from 1781 to the 1892 Gesichte des Königlich Bayerischen. If you have recommendations please let me know, perhaps I’m missing something crucial in my collection. I am planning to go back through the many Alarms or General marches from other regions now and see if I missed any others that would rhythmically match the Italian/Bavarian/Anglo-American tradition. It seems I haven’t been thorough enough in checking.
hi, i hope you get more recognition soon, came here from how not to bury the beater video, also wonder why it's there no rudimentia app on Android?
Apparently the same features are harder or impossible to create in android and the app generally just would not work as well. That’s what I’m told.
ordered!!!
You’ll be one of just a handful of experts worldwide. Literally nobody knows about this stuff.
@@RyanAlexanderBloom another excellent and well put together book!
