The first in a new series of fife and drum music: "Marches des Nations à la Guerre de Sept Ans", composed by me in the style of the 18th century. As the title of this series implies, it is inspired by the combattants of the Seven Years War (1756–1763).
This one has the title "La Francaise" - "the French". The image depicts the French army with King Louis XV at the battle of Fontenoy that was part of the War of the Austrian Succession about a decade before the Seven Years War.
Enjoy!
