A march is a musical composition characterized by a strong, regular rhythm that is easy to follow while walking in step. Traditionally associated with the military, it is often used for parades, ceremonies, and formal processions. Marches typically feature a clear, repetitive structure and a tempo that matches the pace of marching soldiers or participants. Beyond military use, marches are also found in classical music, brass band repertoires, and sporting events, where they help create a sense of order, pride, and forward movement. The term can refer both to the style and to specific pieces.
