Hands Across the Sea (march) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Hands Across the Sea (march)
"Hands Across the Sea" is an American military march composed by John Philip Sousa in 1899. ==History== The march was written in 1899. When the march premiered the same year at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia, the audience insisted that it be repeated three times.〔''(Journal of Band Research )'', Vols. 38-39, p. 54.〕 The march is "addressed to no particular nation, but to all of America's friends abroad."〔Paul E. Bierley, ''(The Works of John Philip Sousa )'' (1984), p. 60.〕 Sousa prefaced the sheet music's score with a quotation from the English diplomat John Hookham Frere: "A sudden thought strikes me; let us swear eternal friendship."〔''(All Music Guide to Classical Music: The Definitive Guide to Classical Music )'' (Blackbeat, 2005: eds. Chris Woodstra, Gerald Brennan & Allen Schrott), p. 1295.〕〔''(Music: A Monthly Magazine ),'' Vol. 16.〕 The march was composed in the wake of the Spanish-American War and is idealistic, in addition to patriotic, in nature.〔 "Hands Across the Sea" remains as one of Sousa's more popular marches, and is still performed widely by bands.〔
