  • Johann Heinrich Walch (1776–1855), was a German conductor, chamber musician and choral master for both the Duke of Saxe-Gotha-Altenburg as well as of the Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, in Gotha in the current German state of Thüringen. He was also the composer of many well-known marches. Napoleon's war took on its final end, when the allies of Austria, Prussia and Russia marched into Paris on 31 March 1814 to the tune of the "Pariser Einzugsmarsch". This tune was also used as the climax of the 1940 Victory parade of the Germans through Paris. Although attributed initially to Beethoven, Walch is the composer. Another march by Walch is the famous "Beethoven Funeral March Number 1" played at the funeral of King Edward VII and also at the National Service of Remembrance in London on Remembrance Sunday each year on the Sunday nearest to 11 November. It is played after the playing of the Last Post, and during the Wreath Laying Ceremony. It is also announced as "Beethoven's Funeral March" on the BBC Television commentary. For a long time, the march was wrongly attributed to Beethoven, and catalogued as WoO (work without opus number), Anh. 13. The march was played during the processions to the lying in state at Westminster of Queen Elizabeth II and Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, at the procession to St Paul's Cathedral at the funeral of former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher on 17 April 2013, and during the procession to St George's Chapel at the funeral of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh on 17 April 2021. On 25 March 2015, this same march was also played by the Singapore Armed Forces Band during the foot procession from the Istana to the lying in state of Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore's first Prime Minister, at the Parliament House of Singapore. The march was also played during the funeral procession from the Capitol to the White House at the state funeral of President Kennedy on November 25, 1963. Many marches supposedly written for several cavalry regiments by Queen Victoria's consort Prince Albert, who was also the Prince of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha and the Duke of Saxony, are actually by Walch, including the British regiment march, the Regimental quick march of the Somerset Light Infantry.

  • Johann Heinrich Walch (Großneuhausen, 21 novembre 1775 – Gotha, 2 ottobre 1855) è stato un compositore tedesco, direttore d'orchestra e maestro di cappella per i duchi di Sassonia-Gotha-Altenburg e di Sassonia-Coburgo-Gotha nella città di Gotha in Turingia. Da compositore è noto come autore di molte celebri marce, le più note delle quali sono state erroneamente attribuite a Beethoven. Si ricordano la Pariser Einzugsmarsch (eseguita il 31 marzo 1814 all'entrata delle truppe della sesta coalizione in Parigi e ancora nella parata nazista del 1940 in occasione dell'occupazione della città) e la Marcia funebre in fa minore usata nel Regno Unito per il funerale di Edoardo VII e anche, tutti gli anni, nella celebrazione della Domenica del ricordo. Quest'ultima è ancora indicata come «Marcia funebre n. 1 di Ludwig van Beethoven» sia dalla BBC sia da fonti ufficiali del governo britannico, nelle occasioni in cui è eseguita, come ad esempio nel 2013 per il corteo funebre solenne di Margaret Thatcher. Altre marce per reggimenti di cavalleria furono invece attribuite al principe consorte della regina Vittoria, Alberto. (it)
