PROGRAMME NOTES

The Marines Hymn is the official hymn of the United States Marine Corps and the oldest official song in the US Armed Forces, authorised for use by the Commandant of the Marine Corps in 1929. The lyrics for the hymn were written by an anonymous author prior to this and includes lines referencing famous battles such as To the shores of Tripoli referring to the First Barbary War and The Halls of Montezuma referencing the Battle of Chapultepec. The music, however, originates from the Gendarmes Duet from Offenbachs 1859 opera Genevieve de Brabant.

Sammy Nestico, whilst best known as a composer, arranger, and conductor for the Count Basie Orchestra and as a prolific composer of television themes including shows such as M*A*S*H*, and Charlies Angels, was also the director of the U.S. Marine Band under both John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson. In 1968, Nestico took the original version of the hymn and revamped it in his own inimitable style.
