Musicians - how do I find out about the Regimental March?

[Jane Lewis]

I am trying to track down the sheet music for the Royal Welch Regimental march (we have a tape of it, but need to get the actul sheetmusic). The only thing I can find on the web is the March of the Royal Welch Fusiliers (No 1) by Sousa. Is this what you would generally recognise as the Regimental March? If not, what is?

I am organising a memorial concert for my father, John Lewis (also known as the Bish) who died last year. He was an organist, so it's going to be an organ recital. And someone has suggested we include the Royal Welch Regimental March in the recital - he always talked of his time in the Royal Welch with great affection. So any help in making sure we have the correct sheet music would be really appreciated - and if it's scored for the organ, so much the better!

Thanks in advance

Hello Jane,
I remember marhing off Adjutants parade in Jamaica and else where, to either "Men of Harlech" and "The British Grenadier" (Some talk ofAlexandra and such great names as these etcetera)There is also an inspection march, but I cannot go into this as I only know the squaddies words to it and these would not be nice on an open e mail.

Regards Don

Hi
just thought I'd put my ten pence worth in. The Regimenal Marches of the Royal Welch Fusiliers are The Men Of Harlech and The British Grenadiers. The Royal Welch Fusiliers written by Sousa was a tribute to the Regiment when he was the Bandmaster of the USMC who fought along side the Regiment in the Boxer Rebellion. I am sure if you will get a copy of the sheet music if you do a search on the net. I will have a browse and let you know how I get on. Hop this helps.
