@Adamhistorybuff Because only British bands can properly play British marches - even an American like me knows that. There's a particular British march style that U.S. bands just can't imitate. We'll stick to Sousa so you can stick to Alford.
One of my favourite marches! As a french horn- player, marches are boring! But not "Army of the Nile"! I love this! :-) (And I still can play the french horn part...) ;-)
I played this song with the Royal Australian Air force band i can tell you it is literally a killer LOL..... but i LOVE IT!!! good old brit marches XD
I loved playing this in high school band, although I switched to euphonium the year AFTER we played it, so I missed out on the awesome solo. Everytime I listen to this, I somehow become energized. That's how a march should make you feel.

Damn! What's the rush? Can't even hear the clarinet obligato at the trio section.

Sounds great...until you have to play it in a brass band as the sop. That sop solo in the middle is a killer, especially when marching.

Being an American, it is really hard for me to play with that epic British style vibrato. After listening to this, I think I'll get it.
