Excerpt from The Great in Music: A Systematic Course of Study in the Music of Classical and Modern Composers

To this extremely powerful and virile work has been given the name of military polonaise. Certainly one could not march to it as to a strict march in common time, but the energy, ambition, determination and tri umph uttered in its stirring strophes can not be mistaken as to their significance, and they rouse the pulses like a fanfare of trumpets.
