As the title so succinctly states, this album presents "brilliant" (yet old and sometimes forgotten) German marches that have been "rediscovered" in ancient archives and libraries and have been expertly arranged and newly recorded here - in most cases for the very first time! The veteran musicians of the State Police Orchestra of Brandenburg, under the direction of Peter Brünsing, superbly perform all twenty-one selections (many by composers who are virtually unknown today) with a style that breathes new life into these august marches from long ago. Complete contents include: Mein Kunstlergruss an Johann Strauss (Hamm) / Parademarsch im Schritt (von Weber) / Prinz Carl Dragoner-Marsch (Claus) / Kaiser Friedrich-Fanfare (Voigt) / Markommanen-Marsch (Fürst) / Parademarsch Nr. 1 (Hamm) / Münchener Industrie Austellungs-Marsch (Hamm) / L'Attaque (Hamm) / Markgraf August von Baden-Baden-Marsch (Kaiser) / Hansa-Marsch (Teike) / Fahnenguss (Teike) / Vivat Badenia! (Cellarius) / Zähringer-Marsch (Gruss) / "Badener bei Drie-Grachten" (Glaser) / Gruss an die Grossherzoglich Badenshce Rezidenzsatadt Carlsruhe (Vogel) / Schneidige Wehr (Sauter) / Unsere 107er (Krimmling) / Armee-Marsch (Frick) / Cravant-Marsch (Havemann) / Blaul-Marsch (Burow).
