march music
Brass band fare
March music is music composed to accompany or evoke marching, characterized by a strong, regular beat and typically written in duple or quadruple meter.
Military marches coordinate troop movements; concert marches like Sousa's "Stars and Stripes Forever" are performed for entertainment.
The genre's steady rhythm and bright instrumentation make it a staple of parades and ceremonies: The band struck up some march music as the veterans passed by.
