If the link is military, Elgar wrote a Military March.

He did, but it's a different one you're after....but the link isn't military, though.

Ian, the Walton could have been in my group, but isn't....it could lead you to the correct Elgar march, however.  Wink

No to the Rameau, btw

Now, if 'militaire' and 'Imperial' connect, the link must be moderately loose, associating imperialism and militarism (perfectly justified, but they are not the same thing) - correct?

'Moderately loose' would be correct thinking! In fact, I wouldn't pursue the actual link between the two words particularly far. Confused? It will all become horribly clear...eventually!

No to the Walton fanfares, I'm afraid.

Lots of Telemann would fit, including 'Herr, wir danken deiner Gnade'
Air pour l'heureux progrès des armées alliées en Hesse
