Entrance of the Gladiators
military march by Julius Fučík / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Entrance of the Gladiators op. 68 or Entry of the Gladiators is a march that is mainly used in circuses. It was composed by Julius Fučík. He wrote the march on October 17, 1897 in Sarajevo.
The march receives the occasional concert hall performance, such as at the 2007 Last Night of the Proms. The phrase "entry of the gladiators" is known in two descriptions of Pompeii in 1877 and is probably older.
