Walch, Funeral March (c. 1830) performed at the procession for Queen Elizabeth II

The funeral march performed as the first piece during the funeral procession for Queen Elizabeth II (and for many other members of the royal family including the Queen Mother and Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh). The media incorrectly call it Beethoven's Funeral March No. 1 but in fact it was composed by Johann Heinrich Walch (c. 1830). The version played at the Queen's funeral was at a proximately 75 beats per minute. For a faster version you could listen to the version played at the funeral of President John F. Kennedy, which was played at approximately 100 beats per minute:    • Walch, Funeral March (c. 1830) performed a...   #militaryband #windband #concertband #funeralmarch Recording created with Avid Sibelius and Wallander Instruments NotePerformer3. ✉️ Subscribe for a free conducting eBook: https://bit.ly/maximes-news 🌐 Download our complete catalog: https://concertbandmusicstore.com Three more videos you should watch: 1️⃣ Mendelssohn, Funeral March:    • Mendelssohn, Funeral March (1843) performe...   2️⃣ Chopin, Funeral March:    • Chopin, Funeral March (1837) performed at ...   3️⃣ God Save the Queen/King, arr.
