Notes |
Composed in 1915. "One of twelve marches Sousa composed for various expositions or fairs, 'The Pathfinder of Panama' was dedicated to the Panama Canal and the Panama-Pacific Exposition, held in San Francisco in 1915. Sousa's Band played a nine-week engagement at the exposition. The march was composed at the request of Walter Anthony, a reporter for the 'San Francisco Call'. The Panama Canal was the pathfinder of Sousa's title; it shortened the ocean voyage between San Francisco and New York by 8,000 miles." The Works of John Philip Sousa pgs. 76-77 Paul E. Bierley Integrity Press 1984 Missing Solo Trumpet part. |
