About "La Reine De La Mer: Waltzes" by United States Marine Band
'La Reine de la Mer' waltzes with oceanic grace—strings swelling like tides, brass glinting like sunlight on waves. Sousa's sea-queen is serene yet restless, the triple-time lilt hiding a current of melancholy, as if the ballroom floor might dissolve into salt water.
