"Under The Double Eagle" March

[panzermadam]

I am coming back to listen to this wunderbar song again wit volume up high!!!!!!

[JBC814]

Remarkable fidelity for a 78.

[churromaster100]

4 people are just retarded and deaf

[panzermadam]

Beuatiful music, 5 *****!!!!!!!!!!

[EmmetEarwax]

My old 12" Victor padded out the extra disk space by repeating the music immediately after the last note of the march. After inventory, I was surprized that I do not have the Thunderer march on a Victor disk. I played the one on Archives.Org, but then one day the sound quit on me. I finally just - deleted- the website from my favorites function. YouTube plays just about everything -and shows the machines playing.

[GooglFascists]

Very Good! Austria fought the annexation with Nazi Germany until they were

given no other choice. My folks were from Strasburg, land of Albert Schweitzer

and "The Sound Of Music".

Many people do believe this is a Sousa march, and as John Philip Sousa

is known world-over as "The March King" we can take that as high praise!

[DaFlow994]

great song.. but that song did not come from Germany! Its a march from Austria!

sorry for my bad english :)

[MsPlayfulspirit]

i have a music box that plays this VERY version, its awesome

[Myles0Harcourt]

This sounds more like an American march to be honest. But the name gives it away.

[walzi2001]

for the files... its not german , it is austrian; the double eagle is habsburg

[bigcitybrian]

I love this old song! Thanks for sharing this.

[hmvscf]

For those interested, this track was recorded in Berlin on 31.08.1928; conductor is Carl Woitschach.

Cheers,

Ivan

@archangell44: it's the first thing that comes to my mind too when I hear this march, haha (dancing teeth)

[GlennMagusHarvey]

Also, anyone who can't tell that "J. F. Wagner" isn't Richard Wagner has no business criticizing this music as Nazi or anti-Semitic.

[GlennMagusHarvey]

For anyone who's coming here to find Parodius music:

The tune from Parodius Da! that you are looking for starts at 1:26

[ExcelsiorElectric]

This has got to be one of my favorite marches. The trio is so beautiful.

[uperds]

@ExcelsiorElectric My Grandfather who served in the Royal Horse Artillery during WW1 used play this music on an old gramaphone when I was a child.He would climb upon our furniture waving a cavalry sword about his head.Quite,quite mad!

[Angelfire2020]

The Wagner whose music Hitler loved was a German and another one. He set German mythology topowerfull music. This one was an Austrian bandmaster and composer. He wrote mostly marches and polkas.

[GuteMusikfreund]

@Angelfire2020 but there are two wagners. The one who Hitler loved so much was Richard Wagner and he was a german composer. The Austrian one was called Josef Wagner and he wrote many marches, like this beautiful one here!

[SounzNice]

wow that old clunker cranks out awesome sounds!

[kumiumiu]

i missed this music , when i was a teenger.

[PaulWaffe]

Great Sound !!!

[bigcitybrian]

Thank you for sharing this. Great song! I have this same record on 78 but my victrola doesn't sound this good. Danke! Ja?

[MrLexylex3]

thats an austrian march

[subg88]

Strange how this became a country music standard.

[breeof2003]

we're playing this song in band for festival

[ls15236]

i East Texas, its still very common for the High School marching band to march to this song! We did last year :)

[agentgfh]

lucky to think we get stuck performing this for a winter concert =/

[plushmoon02]

it is so hard to find a performance of this song that is clean and delightful such as this one

[fabvier]

Although a great march it is not german unless you take us back to Anschluss.

[archangell44]

Conrad Pooh!!! LOLOLOL

[therealquade]

omfg! This IS what they used for that isn't it! ROFL!

[archangell44]

I am imagining dancing teeth!!! I'M LMAO!

[GoldenOldies60and70s]

Would you take a thousand dollars CDN for that album? Not that I like the fuher, But I collect oldies!

[northforge]

Its Austrian, Josef Wagner's 1856-1908 had nothing to do with Hitler of the Nazi's or Germany.

[pintofnewcastle]

@northforge, you are correct. unfortunately however, Wagner's music has been tainted by the fact that Hitler considered it inspirational. of course it's not Wagner's fault, but it does have that association. the swastika, an ancient symbol of peace used for 5000 years, has been forever perverted.

[monaleisure]

@pintofnewcastle

Different Wagner!

[schwaebinbayerin]

@pintofnewcastle

in your mind, but in many other minds, NOT....if everybody that ever did something wrong to another, nobody would be innocent....get over the 2nd world war....and stop living in the past.... look at Israel now, the great opressor and war monger....sorry for the good israelis that are not of like mind with their leaders...

[Shockwave474]

@schwaebinbayerin You are absolutely right. My great-grandfather died at Dachau, so if I can love Germans anyone can. Of course, not everyone has a mind like mine. Let's just enjoy the music now, because Double Eagle ROCKS!

[GVbroker2]

@pintofnewcastle How ignorant! Study your Wagners.

[geggi21]

This is an Austrian march...

[computerjunkie2009]

GREAT tone... especially the low brass. I guess that's why they're the German Military Band, though...

[organist12345]

well it hasnt happened idiot, ur wasting ur time.

[rafitrompeta]

VERY GOOD!!!

[1313HarborBlvd]

Great song, they played this song all the time at Busch Gardens Williamsburg.

[tflover1221]

im playing it next year as our march....... GO EL RANCHO HIGH

[cowmilk9999]

awesome!!! my band is playing this next year for parades!!!

[computerjunkie2009]

This is one of the best marches ever... my band played this a few years ago and butchered it. This band does it great, though...

[justinemiller1946]

The Mullens High marching band of the early 60's could really play this song. Gene Allen was the director and he had that WV band swingin!

[gagafan4]

im playing this song now in bad

[ajferet]

AUSTRIAN march... Dude... the Double Eagle was the emblem of the Austro-Hungarian Empire... ARGGGH

[grelthogthemighty]

While this was originally written as an Austrian march, Austria was considered by many to be part of Germany; thus the song got grandfathered into being a German march.

[ajferet]

Eh, now I know... but I had been pretty sure that anything related to the Hapsburgs would have been fairly verboten under the Third Reich, almost as dangerous as flying the Weimar Flag...

[moffbombadil]

Yes, that's true. Actually the surviving heir to the Habsburg dynasty, Crown Prince Otto, was an outspoken opponent of the German annexation of Austria in 1938, and an enemy of the Austrian Nazi party before that.

[ajferet]

Just remember Georg von Trapp and the Sound of Music... :)

[northforge]

Actually the Double Headed Eagle was the Imperial emblem of the Ertsen Reich or the 1st Empire also known as the Holy Roman Empire

[ShawnnaTheAwesomenes]

I CAN PLAY THAT SONG It doesnt sound as good cause we r only in 7th grade

[Egnima268]

My marching band played it for our march onto the field, and we didn't do it near this good.... I think they are called professionals for a reason haha

[vic605]

The song sounds very much like the first Natl anthem of Mexico, "La Marcha Zacatecas"

[samas107]

cool. i play this in my school band on tuba. thanks for posting this! =)

[hfk0123]

GO TUBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Barron5000]

No it isn`t. Its from Josef Franz Wagner who lived in Vienna. Its an Austro-Hungarian March like the Radetzky-March.

[patlaborcrewman]

Is that American music??

[mrtaylor52732]

Yes- it was composed by Sousa!

[dudemantwo]

This video is exciting...

[johncare]

Where are the Englanders the INZEL AFFAS

[zulajasplash]

Deutschland für immer!!!

[cptlulz]

pshh Austria ftw

[majorwhatshisname]

it's a bootleg plus the Austrians played the original then Wagner came along and copied it.....the world never changes......

[thEannoyingE]

were did you get this magnificent record?

[usedtodance]

Fine old march.

[Wellch]

I heard this song played on a Beverly Hillbillies old episode.

[Mitsukini321]

yaya hihara kazuki plays this! from la corda d'oro

[majorwhatshisname]

yes but he doesn't play it as well as I do on my spoons! check out my webpage plus 'watashi wah nihongo dekimasu!' gambatte!

[SakuHira]

I think this is a very happy sounding song :D

[sreca2810]

march is very funy

[Jaggedrus]

nice man this song is awesome... i hope we play it next season :D

[Retloth]

made in Japan!

[BrassyFool]

Well, I think it doesn´t matter if its a German or Austrian march...if you go back wide enough in history, its both the same...:P

[031bet26]

No, it´s not, never...

[23danb]

super nice! Can i find this song anywhere else on youtube or anywhere?

[PremiumBavaricum]

Try searching for "Unter dem Doppeladler", greetings from Bavaria

[eragon812]

yess at me!!!

[CarlBusPas]

This March was Writen by Wagner. and the Double Eagle was A Symbol from Byzantion and the than insign of the Holy Roman Empire of German Nations was then the simbol from the Royal Line of Habsburg you can see also the insign in the coat of Arms of Castilla & Aragon the Coat of arms of the Katholik kings

[websafari]

AEIOU !!!!

[ArturAxmann]

You have the best old records.

[mutagen007]

der ist richtig klasse... der rhythmus geht echt ins blut^^

[crash1932]

its all good to me, being an ex squad instructor at the Guards Depot at Caterham I think I know what I like and it is the 'lilt' and 'swing' of the german military music that depicts to me discipline and pleasure of listening

[fredcambuse]

This march is not a german one - this is from austria. the double eagle is the symbol of austria-hungary in former times.

it´s only performed by a german band but the austrians can do it better:-)

[CarlBusPas]

and this March where played in Spain *Bajo la Doble Aguila* Viva la Linie de los Habsburgo

[eragon812]

you are absolutely right

you can see for yourself at me if you want

[CarlBusPas]

The Double Eagle is the Symbol Of Byzantion an the Holy Roman Empire
