Programme notes: The "41st Regimental March" by Josef Lassletzberger: Historical and Musical Context The "41st Regimental March," also known as the "41st War March," is an important work of military music of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The march was composed by Josef Lassletzberger (1862–1939), a composer who made a name for himself primarily through his contributions to military and brass music. The work is dedicated to the 41st Infantry Regiment "Archduke Eugene," a regiment rich in tradition, founded in Czernowitz in 1701. *** Historical Background of the 41st Infantry Regiment *** The 41st Infantry Regiment "Archduke Eugene" is one of the oldest and most traditional units of the Austro-Hungarian Army. Its roots date back to the early 18th century, when it was established in Czernowitz, now Chernivtsi in Ukraine. The regiment was active in various military conflicts of the Habsburg Monarchy for centuries and developed its own musical tradition, closely linked to the military music of that era. *** Origin and Dedication of the "41st Regimental March" *** Josef Lassletzberger created the "41st Regimental March" as a musical homage to the "Archduke Eugen" Regiment. The march reflects the military discipline and pride of the unit and originally served as marching music for parades, roll calls, and other military occasions. The dedication to the 41st Infantry Regiment underscores the close connection between music and military identity in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. *** Musical Features of the March *** The "41st Regimental March" is characterized by a clear, concise melody and a rhythmically distinctive march rhythm, typical of military music of that era. The composition combines solemn and energetic elements, giving it both a festive and marching character. The structure follows the classic march structure with a catchy main theme carried by various instrumental groups. *** Arrangement for Modern Wind Orchestra by Hans Kliment *** As wind music evolved, the "41st Regimental March" was arranged by Hans Kliment for the modern wind orchestra. This arrangement allows today's wind bands to perform the piece with contemporary instrumentation and timbre without losing its historical character. Kliment's arrangement takes into account the expanded tonal possibilities of modern wind orchestras and ensures that the march has a permanent place in both traditional and modern concert programs. *** Significance and Relevance Today *** The "41st Regimental March" is an important testament to the military music of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and a valuable part of the repertoire of many brass bands dedicated to the preservation of historical marching music. The combination of history, musical quality, and modern arrangement makes the work a classic that keeps the tradition of the 41st Infantry Regiment "Archduke Eugen" alive while appealing to new generations of musicians.
