Programme note:
'Entrance of the Gladiators', Op. 68 or 'Entry of the Gladiators' (Czech: Vjezd gladiatoru; German: Einzug der Gladiatoren) is a military march composed in 1897 by the Czech composer Julius FuÄÃk (1872 - 1916). FuÄÃk originally titled the piece 'Grande Marche Chromatique', reflecting the use of chromatic scales, but changed the title based on his interest in the Roman Empire. The piece is widely known as one of the most popular theme tunes for circus performers, often under the title 'Thunder and Blazes'.
