Info

For a long time, the composer Theodor Rupprecht (1873-1934) was thought to be an Austrian among band researchers. What really triggered this assumption, nobody knew for sure. On the occasion of more complex efforts to trace down data on this composer, it became evident that the student of the Royal Bavarian Court Music Director Joseph Rheinberger (1839-1901) was a thoroughbred inhabitant of Munich. He played cello there in the orchestra of the State Theater and became known as composer of light operas, marches and dances. His march “Don Quixote” survived as one of the marches from the pen of this composer that are still known today – and it presents itself as a bonfire of satiric ideas. It truly is a very special piece among the marches of its time.
