Sir Edward Elgar wrote his Pomp and Circumstance March no. 2 in 1901 and dedicated it to the composer Granville Bantock. Although this second march is less known than the first, it is not less beautiful. A loud call for attention by the brass section is followed by a nice staccato theme with the woodwinds, completed by different instruments in a construction leading to the trio. This trio in major key contains a simple melody written in thirds played respectively by the woodwinds and the brass. The work ends with a short but powerful coda.
