| Notes |
Composed in 1915. "One of twelve marches Sousa composed for various expositions
or fairs, 'The Pathfinder of Panama' was dedicated to the Panama Canal and the
Panama-Pacific Exposition, held in San Francisco in 1915. Sousa's Band played a
nine-week engagement at the exposition. The march was composed at the request of
Walter Anthony, a reporter for the 'San Francisco Call'. The Panama Canal was
the pathfinder of Sousa's title; it shortened the ocean voyage between San
Francisco and New York by 8,000 miles."
