Prinz Eugen


"Prinz Eugen" by Austria is a German-language military march in the key of B-flat major. The melody was composed by Julius Herrmann in 1912, and the lyrics were later added by Oskar Böhme. The song is a tribute to Prince Eugene of Savoy, a highly successful Austrian military commander of the 17th and 18th centuries. A curiosity about this piece is that it was adopted by the Austrian Navy as their anthem. The melody is characterized by its strong and proud rhythm, creating a powerful and uplifting atmosphere.
