Post-WWII compositions
[Several topics dealing with post-WWII compositions have been merged by the host, Ivan Ž.]
This [so-called] "Großes Potpourri der Wehrmacht" has German military marches included. It has 36:20 length. I can hear the first one is "Westerwaldlied" and the last one is "Lili Marleen". It also includes some famous songs like "Panzerlied", "Erika". But most of it I can't identify what it is, even the melody is very acquaintance. I want to find out every march. Could you give me some informations?
Thanks a lot.

Re: Drei Lilien, drei Lilien... [Potpourri]
These are the first German marching songs I've ever heard - and still are my favourite They are also the very last German true old-school-style military recordings. They were made in 1959 in Hamburg by Musikkorps 6 der Bundeswehr under Hauptmann Gerhard Scholz and sung by Soldatenchor des Lehr-Bataillons der Heeresoffizierschule II. The medley is called "Drei Lilien, drei Lilien..." and it was composed by Gustav Kneip (1905-1992). The ridiculous title "Großes Potpourri der Wehrmacht" is just a modern, internet-fiction. It is a Bundeswehr medley - the most famous Bundeswehr medley actually. The included songs are mainly German folk songs from the XIX century; there is one WWI song and four from the III Reich period (there are no songs from WWII). All of them are simple soldiers' and hunters' love songs.

Re: Drei Lilien, drei Lilien... [Potpourri]
There is no full version of that particular piece you posted. That is an excerpt from a medley of many songs called "Drei Lilien, drei Lilien..."

Re: Wohlauf, Kameraden! [Potpourri]
Those were all cut from the post-WWII medley "Wohlauf, Kameraden!", composed by Gerhard Scholz and Gerhard Pätzig. It was performed by Musikkorps 6 der Bundeswehr under Major Gerhard Scholz and sung by Soldatenchor des Lehr-Bataillons der Heeresoffizierschule II (the very same performer as in the famous "Drei Lilien, drei Lilien..." medley).

Re: Wohlauf, Kameraden! [Potpourri]
Ivan, thank you very much! It is "Wohlauf, Kameraden". And where can I get its full version, not fragments?
Re: Wohlauf, Kameraden! [Potpourri]
These look very much like the post war recordings I have on LP's. (bought in Canada in 1965) Even the sequence is the same. Alas, I don't have them on my computer, so I cannot help you download. It might pay off to scrounge some second hand records stores, the Goodwill, or the Salvation Army. I have picked up some pretty nice records there through the years.

Re: Wohlauf in Gottes schöne Welt [EP]
The medley (a compilation actually) was made after WWII and had nothing to do with the HJ.
It contains the following songs:
- Wilde Gesellen vom Sturmwind durchweht
- Wir sind des Geyers schwarze Haufen
- Vom Barette schwankt die Feder
- Die blauen Dragoner
- Gute Nacht, Kameraden
The performer is a Hamburger Jugendgruppe conducted by Heinz Zabel. The songs originate from a Telefunken 45 rpm record "Wohlauf in Gottes schöne Welt", from where they were copied on the Documentary Series' LP "Wir Jungen tragen die Fahne" (vols. 3 & 4), where they were (shamelessly) published as HJ songs. And from this (fake HJ) LP, they were copied on the internet.
