This edition of Brass, Reeds, and Percussion features music performed by the Royal Australian Navy Band. Brass, Reeds, and Percussion is pleased to offer music from military bands from around the world.
But this edition opens with two marches by the Czech composer Franz Krommer, who lived from 1759 to 1831. The instrumentation of these marches is two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, and two horns as well as a trumpet and a contrabassoon. At the time of publication, this instrumentation made the marches very saleable to military bands of the Austro-Hungarian Empire because this was the basic instrumentation of such bands. Franz Krommer eventually became the court composer of the Austro-Hungarian Emperor Franz I.
