Originally written for orchestra, Fame and Glory came into prominence when it was played by the massed bands of the Brigade of Guards at the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley Stadium in 1924 and 1925. For many years it was played at the Parade of Standards in the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance, and it is still heard at the Cenotaph Service.
