La Reine de la Mer Valses - John Philip Sousa - Piano Solo Waltz
27"La Reine de la Mer" Valses (The Queen of the Sea) by John Philip Sousa, composed in 1886.
This waltz is written with a dedication to Mrs. W. C. Whitney, then the wife of the Secretary of the Navy and was chosen as one of the numbers for Sousa's farewell concert with the U.S. Marine Band in 1892. It was also said to be his favorite waltz, and it's easy to see why.
This piece was commissioned by John McDonnell who has a website dedicated to Sousa and other composers of the period: https://www.angelfire.com/ks/landzastanza/pianomusic.html#01 Enjoy! 🌊👑🎵
