Please could you add to your presentation of the traditional four? You have already shared the Koniggraetzer and the Badenweiler; could we have the Fehrbelliner, for its music, and the Hohenfriedberger, because of the sentimental song to Alte Fritze the Prussian soldiers sang?

I was fascinated at your including the not very well known Pappenheimermarsch, which refers to an Imperial general of the Thirty Years War.

From the classical side, you gave us the stirring Preussens Gloria. I am convinced that you will not be averse to the Doppel Adler, in spite of its other imperial associations, and Beethoven's stirring composition, the March dedicated to General Yorck.

Thanks, my aim is to post every German march song, both from during the period of WW2 as well as from the era of Imperial Germany, on this thread since i believe these marches deserve their own section and will be easily accessible.

My knowledge of Prussian March's is slightly weak, the ones that i am aware of is due to them being widely used during military parades under Nazi regime. Perhaps you can assist me in updating this thread with more German march songs, both pre WW2 and WW2. I would appreciate that.
