Komponist: Rudolf Herzer 1912
--------------------------------------------
The concert march "Hoch Heidecksburg" was composed in 1912 by Rudolf Herzer. He was from Thüringen area of Germany and he named the march after the Heidecksburg Castle in Rudolstadt, where he was stationed with the third battalion of the 96th Infantry Regiment. The march was also sometimes known as Heil Heidecksburg and was subtitled The Watchtower - apparently because this part of the building towered above the rest of the beautiful castle. (The castle originally dated from the ninth century, but was rebuilt in 1735 and has since been converted into a museum)
When his march was first performed in 1912 before top brass, it was not well received. It can only be assumed that he was ahead of his time, and it may not have sounded sufficiently military in style. Herzer, a non-commissioned officer, was to resign from army life and move to Berlin, but when the first world war broke out, he rejoined and on 20 October 1914 he was critically wounded and died in an army hospital.
Little was known about him until a study of his life in 1985, but he did compose other works because his famous Hoch Heidecksburg was listed as Opus 10.
To this day Hoch Heidecksburg is the most played march in Germany, not just by military bands, but it is frequently heard at beer festivals, university functions, and in concert programmes.

One of the BEST performance of Hoch Heidecksburg I have ever heard. Congratulations !
Agree!
Being Dutch (Nederlander; Duitsch=German!) I'm still proud of this superb performance. We don't have many professional military bands but those we have have high standards. In this case the former Johan Willem Friso Kapel played in the Breda military tattoo just before it had to combine with the KMK (Royal Military Band) into the 'Koninklijke Militaire Kapel 'Johan Willem Friso'. They just knew that the danger of being disbanded completely in favor of the KMK was over and the combined new band was to remain in their home barracks in Assen, which was clearly audible in their music that evening.
Well done Koninklijke Militaire Kapel Johan Willem Friso. Thanks voor the video.
Gänsehaut! Super Auftritt! Die Holländer können stolz sein auf dieses Musikkorps!
Grüße aus Deutschland.
Grüße aus Rudolstadt

Exemplo Ducemus! Wish we'd had this recording on my pass out (RMPTA Course No 88) back in 1990 :)
name of the march is Hoch Heidecksburg from Rudolstat in Thüringen. Maybe the Royal Military police should be investigated some!!

The Regimental March of the Royal Military Police of the British Army. If played at formal dinners with other regiments or corps in attendance, our tradition was to stand to attention, standing on the table, much to the surprise of others lol.
it's a german march. lots of other people use it too for some reason or another.
Ich speiel den so gerne im Stadtorchestra ich liebe es Drummer zu sein bei den märschen

Proud to be dutch!
Nog steeds mijn Fafoo, de KMK, uit herinnering en ervaring.
Dit optreden had niets met de KMK te doen. Onze laatste zelfstandige Taptoe...
Great performance. I'd liked to have heard the repeats played as I missed the Euphonium counter melody in the first strain. Only a small point though.
I like the uniforms,especially the shako's their wearing
Gruss Deutschland...( because Dutch comes from the word Deutsch ).
Alpen Jodler It is the uniform of the Regiment Johan Willem Friso.
In old Dutch its Diets...😁
@Winnie9212 yeah but that's part of Germany, isn't it???
Sorry, Winnie9212, I couldn't resist lol
