RE: Lilliburlero



I have a feeling that Lilliburlero is the Regimental March of the Irish
Guards - I certainly remember hearing it & playing it during my spell in
HM
Forces.
It appears as part of Gordon Langford's "Famous British Marches", publish=
ed
by Chandos.

Kevin,
Well, I'm not a 'Brit', but I do have a recording of 'Lilliburlero' by th=
e
Philip Jones Ensemble, on their CD entitled 'Grand March', by London
Records,
number 417 329-2.
According to the liner, it describes it as traditional with this particul=
ar
arrangement by Kenneth J. Alford, of all people. The liner goes on to say=

"...a tune of unknown origin, first published in 1686 and set to words wi=
th
satirical political overtones, is representative of the popular tunes of
the
day, then employed to accompany marching troops..."
Hope this helps.

This one is for all you Brits out there.

I recently acquired a cheesy Canadian produced cd of British wind band
marches and was quite taken with some tasty little tunes. Lilliburlero is=

one
in which I am particularly interested. The cd was so cheaply made that
composers weren't even listed. Some were even lifted off vinyl recordings=

evident by the popping and hiss associated with vinyl records. I would
appreciate any info avalailable including:composer, availabilty of a bras=
s
band arrangement, and any historical significance or background info
attached
to the march.

Thank You and Regards,
Kevin Miller
