Tune of the Day: Der Coburger
Austrian/German march
This cavalry march was composed around 1792 by Michael Haydn, brother of the more famous Austrian composer Joseph Haydn. It was dedicated to Prince Josias of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, and that's why the piece also goes by the name of “Josias Coburg-Marsch”.
Thanks to Freddie for suggesting this tune!
