Program Notes
With this march, the composer impressively proves that not only professional musicians can successfully write marches. Popularity and temperament characterise the march of Meissner, who lived as a customs official and composer in Stralsund at the turn of the century.
The march, composed in Stralsund (Pomerania) in 1908, was for a time a march in use by the German naval battalions of the imperial era. In October 1999, the march Zum Städtel hinaus was awarded the status of official troop march of the Naval Engineering School.
The march was performed for the first time in this context at the benefit concert on 4 November 1999 at the Stralsund Theatre. It was played by the North Sea Naval Music Corps under the direction of Frigate Captain Michael Wintering.
