The marches that Elgar wrote, whether for public occasions or as an incidental part of other works, represent only one aspect of his achievement as a composer. If not necessarily the most important of his orchestral works, they often represent music of profounder achievement, by no means jingoistic or merely brash in conception. The ever-popular Pomp and Circumstance Marches demonstrate a consummate command of orchestration, with the March No. 1 in D major, in Elgar's own words 'a tune that will knock 'em flat', justifiably famous as the melody for Land of Hope and Glory.
