Perhaps more than anyone else, John Philip Sousa is responsible for bringing the United States Marine Band to an unprecedented level of excellence: a standard upheld by every Marine Band Director since. Sousa grew up with the Marine Band and his intimate knowledge of the band coupled with his great ability provided the ideal medium to showcase the marches which would earn him the title, the "March King." Sousa was born November 6, 1854, at 636 G Street, SE, Washington, D.C., near the Marine Barracks where his father, Antonio, was a musician in the Marine Band. He received his grammar school education in Washington and for several of his school years enrolled in a private conservatory of music operated by John Esputa, Jr. There he studied piano and most of the orchestral instruments, but his first love was the violin. John Philip Sousa gained great proficiency on the violin and at the age of 13 he was almost persuaded to join a circus band. However, his father intervened and enlisted him as an apprentice musician in the Marine Band. Except for a period of 6 months, Sousa remained in the band until he was 20. In addition to his musical training in the Marine Band, he studied music theory and composition with George Felix Benkert, a noted Washington orchestra leader and teacher.

John Philip Sousa (1854-1932) Washington, Estados Unidos Obras: Semper Fidelis Washington Post March (1889) Stars and Stripes Forever King Cotton (1897) Biografía: Director y compositor estadounidense. Nació en Washington, D.C. y a la edad de 13 años fue aceptado en la Marine Band, la banda oficial del presidente de Estados Unidos. A los 18 años comenzó a actuar como violinista en orquestas teatrales. En 1880 fue nombrado director de la Marine Band y 12 años después renunció a este puesto para formar su propia orquesta, la Sousa's Band, con la que alcanzó gran popularidad en sus giras por Estados Unidos y Europa. Sousa era un perfeccionista y mejoró la calidad interpretativa y la riqueza de la instrumentación de las bandas de música. Sus marchas, alrededor de 140, de gran brillantez y emotividad y típicamente estadounidenses, le valieron el sobrenombre de El rey de las marchas. De entre ellas destacan "Semper Fidelis" (1888), "Washington Post March" (1889), "King Cotton" (1897) y "Stars and Stripes Forever" (1897), la más popular de todas. Sousa también compuso 11 óperas cómicas y 2 poemas sinfónicos. Inventó una variante del helicón que consistía en una gran tuba contrabajo curvada en forma de círculo, con un pabellón inmóvil, y que lleva su nombre: sousafón. © eMe Archivo Midi epdlp Webmasters: salva@epdlp.com

The Marches Of John Philip Sousa Explanation of his relationship with the University of Illinois Division of Bands includes samples Category Arts Music Composition Composers S sousa, john philip......The Marches of john philip sousa. The great john philip sousa wasclosely related to the University of Illinois Division of Bands http://umgawa.bands.uiuc.edu/MI.old/background/sousa.html

The Marches of John Philip Sousa The great John Philip Sousa was closely related to the University of Illinois Division of Bands, being a close friend of the first Director of Bands, A.A. Harding, and was quite proud of the Illinois Band of the early 1900s, calling it "The World's Greatest College Band". "Stars and Stripes Forever" is his most recognized masterpiece, as well as the official march of the United States, and as such is played by the Marching Illini as part of the closing sequence for most of the sit-down concerts that we are involved in. "University of Illinois" was written expressly for and dedicated to the University. It is not known if it was composed at Harding's request, or if Sousa simply wanted to express his admiration for the Illinois Band. Sousa completed it June 6, 1929 and it was premiered on June 17th in a Sousa Band broadcast. During the era of live band broadcasts over WILL radio, this march was used as signature music for the Illinois Band. "The Glory of the Yankee Navy" was composed to assist the struggling musical comedy "The Yankee Girl" starring Blanche Ring, to whom the march was dedicated. Prior to the opening of the show, the march was titled "The Honor of the Yankee Navy" for a time. It is a march that is typical of the type used by the Marching Illini during halftime performances and parades in the 1950s. Upon the death of Mr. Sousa, over 70% of his original manuscripts were bequeathed to the Division of Bands along with many of his personal instruments and effects. They are currently on display in the Sousa Library on the second floor of the Harding Band Building. Since then, Mr. Sousa has been declared a

THINK TANK WITH HOST: BEN WATTENBERG SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2000 ANNOUNCER: Funding for Think Tank is provided by the John M. Olin Foundation, the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation, the Smith Richardson Foundation, and the Donner Canadian Foundation. (Musical break.) MR. WATTENBERG: Hello, I’m Ben Wattenberg. You are listening to the most famous, and perhaps most frequently played piece of American music ever written, John Phillip Sousa’s The Stars and Stripes Forever. This week Think Tank takes a look at Sousa the man, the composer, and the promoter. Just who was The March King, and how is it that almost 150 years after his birth his music is still such a central part of the American experience. The topic before the house, John Phillip Sousa, the first American musical superstar, this week on Think Tank. To most people the name John Phillip Sousa is synonymous with patriotism. For over 100 years orchestras and bands around the world have been playing his songs nonstop. He was the most famous band leader the world has ever known, and American’s first superstar. John Phillip Sousa was born on November 6th, 1854 in Washington, D.C., just a block and a half away from the Marine barracks. His parents, Elizabeth and Antonio were immigrants. His Portuguese father played trombone with the Marine band, and encourage young John to join him as an apprentice musician at the age of 13. In 1880, at the age of 26, Sousa began a career as the leader of the Marine band. In his 12 years at the helm Sousa transformed this Marine outfit into the country’s premier military band, known as The President’s Own. Their concerts attracted large and appreciative audiences. The band’s reputation spread. In 1889 Sousa wrote what would become the most popular song in America and in Europe, the Washington Post March.

The conventional wisdom has held that the instrument was invented by the C.G. Conn company. Indeed, Conn instruments were in use by the Sousa band by 1898. In the course of researching the history of the Pepper company we have found reason to believe that the first bell upright, bass brass instrument was built by the J.W. Pepper Co. in 1893 and displayed at the industrial exhibt in Philadelphia of that same year. The instrument pictured below is that horn.
