These stirring recordings by the United States Marine Band ("The President's Own") go beyond the tunes everyone knows to paint a broader picture of Sousa's genius as a great American composer and consummate entertainer. The 76 selections include waltzes and other dances, humoresques, fantasies, many marches (of course), and a suite called "The Last Days of Pompeii". 5 hrs, 8 CDs.
