Description:
Edwin Eugene (E.E.) Bagley's "National Emblem" is one of the most famous and best-known American marches alongside Sousa's "Stars and Stripes Forever". Bagley composed the march during a train journey with his band, "Wheeler's Band", in 1902. He was not entirely satisfied with the ending and threw the composition in the dustbin. Members of his band noticed this, took the sheet music out again and secretly rehearsed it in the baggage car. Bagley was very surprised when the band told him a few minutes before the next concert that they would now be performing the new march "National Emblem". As history has shown, it became Bagley's most famous march. Musical note: In the first part of his march "National Emblem", Bagley uses the first twelve notes of the American national anthem "The Star-Spangled Banner", but in duple instead of triple meter. The remaining notes, however, were all written by him.
