Barnum and Bailey's Favorite
"Barnum and Bailey's Favorite" is a circus march written by Karl King for the circus of the same name in 1913.
==Composition of the march==
"Barnum and Bailey's Favorite", often referred to as "The Granddaddy of Circus Marches", was composed by Karl King in 1913〔Osborn, William, Music in Ohio, Kent State University Press, Kent, Ohio, 2004, P. 458〕 and was published through C. L. Barnhouse Company. King's earliest known compositions date from 1909 with this, his most famous work, being composed in only his fifth year of composing.〔
King played euphonium in many circus bands including Barnum and Bailey's, for more than a decade.〔 As is common in his compositions, Karl King made the euphonium part a major voice in the march.〔Hudson, David, Bergman, Marria, and Horton,Lauren, Biographical Dictionary of Iowa, University of Iowa Press, Iowa City, 2008, P.284〕
King was asked by the bandmaster of the Barnum and Bailey Circus Ned Brill to write a march for the circus. This has become his most famous composition, being called "the finest work written to celebrate 'The Greatest Show on Earth'"〔Wood, Lucile, Barnum and Bailey's Favorite - jacket notes, Alfred Publishing, 1999〕 and is one of the most recognizable marches of all time.〔
