Overall: Intriguing survey of Sousa's marches. Sound file is in public domain. GeneralPoxter (talk • contribs) 13:56, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
Add keys/time signatures?
editAn idea I had for this list, adding a column for the key an time signature for each march. It would be useful to sort out the marches by 6/8 vs 2/2, for example. Justin Tokke (talk) 00:24, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
Did this work. I need help filling out the columns for the marches not in public domain (therefore not easily accessible from the Marine Band). Everything from roughly Old Ironsides down. Justin Tokke (talk) 02:53, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
