La Marseillaise (Epiphany day 5)

Here, for no good reason at all, is the French national anthem, "La Marseillaise," played by the Jazz Protagonists.

A filmmaker friend needed a jazz version of this for the closing credits of a movie he was directing. The only instructions were that it was to be done in a jazz style, and it had to be precisely 42 seconds. We failed at both.

Beutifull, the Marseillaise can be played with differents instruments and style, always nice. The military orchestra with chors is still the most powerful one.

Much better than any french army band's rendition for sure. they just don't do military bands like the brits. anyway, love you guys, thanx!
