Prince of Denmark's March (Trumpet Voluntary)

The Prince of Denmark's March, commonly, though erroneously known as the "Trumpet Voluntary", was composed by Jeremiah Clarke around 1699. For many years the piece was incorrectly attributed to his more well known contemporary, Henry Purcell. According to some sources, the march was originally written in honor of George, Prince of Denmark, the consort of the then Princess, later Queen Anne of Great Britain. The march is very popular as wedding music and was played during the wedding of Lady Diana and Prince Charles.
