Comment | There was little interest in or promotion of this title, which was probably initiated by E. Paul Hamilton, the lyricist, in connection with his piano-store business in New York, confirmed in part by the advertisement on the back cover. Together with the piano rolls and the trade journal notices, this suggests that Remick issued the title at Hamilton’s instigation; in effect, this was probably more promotional self-publication than commercial release. |
Historical Note |
|
Musical Note | A march song (marked “Tempo di marcia”) but with a verse in free time (marked “alla recitative”). The music of the verse is fully chromatic; on the fifth line (“he found a chance to hit at France”) the bass line, accented, quotes “La Marseillaise.” A rat-a-tat-tat fill is used at the end of the verse and in the repeat of the chorus. The chorus is marked “with spirit” and is a conventional march in 2/4, with mild syncopation and melodic sequences harmonised with secondary dominants. |
