SOUSA Pet of the Petticoats (1883) - "The President's Own" United States Marine Band

"The President's Own" United States Marine Band presents The Complete Marches of John Philip Sousa, a multi-year project to record and publish scores for all of Sousa's Marches. Sousa, known as "The March King," was director of the Marine Band from 1880 to 1892. Recording directed by Lieutenant Col. Jason K. Fettig. http://www.marineband.marines.mil/

Discussions of this obscure composition are not to be found among Sousa’s writings. The printed music offers no clue to the origin of the title.
