United States Navy Band - Inno e Marcia Pontificale
The United States Navy Band performing the Pontifical Anthem

I am nominating this file because the sound quality is clear and crisp, the band as a whole is in time, no one section stands out which is good and because overall this is a fantastic file that really does add to the article.

  • Conditional support Looking at WP:FS?, the sound description page needs to give the composer and date of composition; if the date of recording and the name of the conductor are available, those ought to be added too. If this is added, I will support promotion. BencherliteTalk 13:53, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support But there is absolutely nothing wrong with individual sections "standing out." That is often the composer's intent. Has the nominator ever composed, directed, or performed a work for band? Edison (talk) 00:36, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment I understand that, what I meant was one section is not the ONLY thing you hear, in every piece there needs to be balance and I have been participating in band for 6 years now. —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 1:29pm • 02:29, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question How do we know the recording is the work of the U.S. Government? The links provided do not indicate the source. Zginder 2010-12-24T22:17Z (UTC)
    • At a guess, The band's home page says "National Anthems and Ceremonial Music performed by the Ceremonial Band", which links to this then to this where the file comes from. The nominator may be able to help further, I suppose. BencherliteTalk 08:09, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • Based on what I see, the legal status of this submission is not or is no longer an issue. Sven Manguard Wha? 21:40, 29 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

My guess is as good as Bencherlite's, it says performed by the Ceremonial Band. Also re copyright this is from their http://www.navyband.navy.mil/Disclaimer.shtml disclaimer]:

  • So what does that mean? I was under the assumption that the current copyright information listed for the image was correct. It's clearly the Navy band. No obvious signs that this is excluded from the Public Domain. Is this still an issue or not? Sven Manguard Wha? 02:10, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Appropriate byline is used in the file description I believe and no, it's not an issue. —Ancient Apparition • Champagne? • 1:20pm • 02:20, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support It appears to meet all of the requirements. Zginder 2010-12-30T02:41Z (UTC)
