Info

Albert Parlow was a German composer. As a military musician, he composed several naval marches. The popular "Amboss Polka" (Anvil Polka) was more of a coincidence. In 1852, Albert Parlow was the first German naval music master to set up the first German naval music corps. His march composition "Mit vollen Segeln" (With full sails) is the first German naval march to be put on record. After his regimental band was relocated to Rastatt in 1859, he often gave concerts in Baden-Baden. There he aroused the interest of Johannes Brahms, who entrusted him with the instrumentation of his Hungarian Dances Nos. 5, 6 and 11-16. Albert Parlow was music director of the Prussian Army until 1880. As an honorary laureate of European military music, he was from Emperor Napoleon III. highly decorated.
