  • Julius Ernest Wilhelm Fučík (18 July 1872 - 25 September 1916) was a Czech composer and conductor of military bands. He became a prolific composer, with over 400 marches, polkas, and waltzes to his name. As most of his works were for military bands, he is sometimes known as the "Bohemian Sousa".

    I remember this piece. Our conductor would always be telling us: "FASTER! LOUDER!"
    This is a very fun march, even for the bassoon!

    Fucik had some rather brilliant music, it's kind of a shame it's all overshadowed by Entrance of the Gladiators (despite that it's a brilliant as hell song). I'm a huge Sousa and Rickettes fan and a fan of marches in general, I'd love to be able to hear some more by this man.

    Discovered this guy through a random wikipedia page. His nephew was an author and was executed by the nazis in WW2. His nephew wrote about his torture and interrogation while he was in prison by writing on cigarette papers and hiding them in a pickle jar under the floor where they were smuggled out through the help of a prison guard. Just some random info i thought id share.

  • @shadrickwilliams

    Yes, piccolo, flute, and E-flat clarinet (the parts are all the same). You have to practice it very slow and gradually play it a little faster. If you try to play it too fast from the beginning, you finger will learn it the wrong way and it will be hard to train your fingers to play it correctly.

    It is my opinion that if your name is spelled a certain way in the enhanced latin alphabet, it is your right that your name is spelled that way, even if you move to another country that doesn't have those symbols.
    For instance: If your name is Patočka and you move from Czech Republic to Austria, you shouldn't have to change your name to Patocka.
    Or if your name is Schröder and you move to the UK you shouldn't change your name to Schroeder or Schroder.

    In a short, brilliant career, during which he served as bandmaster to the 86th Hungarian Infantry Regiment at Budapest, he developed his own wide-ranging style of writing marches, a popular dual profession among bandmasters amidst the on-going nationalism then flourishing in Europe. Thus it is not surprising to find a Hungarian writing an Italian grand march and out-doing many Italians in the process.

    Une très belle marche que nous jouions avec l'harmonie municipale d'Aix (en Provence) dans les années 1975, notamment en Allemagne à Tûbinguen. Julius Fucik était l'oncle de Julius Fucik (23 février 1903 - 8 septembre 1943) écrivain, journaliste tchécoslovaque, critique de théâtre, membre actif du Parti communiste tchécoslovaque qui fut l'un des principaux résistants au nazisme. J. Fucik fut emprisonné, torturé et tué par les nais.
