It is hard to explain just what a musical force the Sousa Band was from the 1890s until the 1930s and John Philip Sousa's death in 1932. Take the most influential Big Band Era organization or the most popular rock band in history and none have ever approached the hold Sousa and his band had on the nation. They filled every big city concert hall and small town auditorium throughout the land with such innovations as having female singers & introducing popular new dances.

Listen bandmasters--ONE piccolo, and the piccolo tune finishes with three clear and distinct notes, not a slur or swoosh.

The cylinders recorded to be issued as 4-minute wax releases and then later made available as Blue Amberols have such great sound. Thanks for this video.
