He was a prolific composer, with over 300 marches, polkas and waltzes to his name. As most of his work was for military bands he is sometimes known as the Bohemian Sousa.

Julius Fucik is known primarily for a single work, The Entrance March of the Gladiators, and really, though almost everyone knows the work, few know the composer's name. In fact most people know only the first third of the work and they know it as circus music, usually played when the clowns appear. Perhaps it could have been called The Entrance March of the Clowns, as it always did sound a bit too jolly for gladiators, but in fact Fucik first titled it "Grande Marche Chromatique". The marches here oddly do not include his other famous one, The Florentine March. Of the three included, the Attila is the most interesting as it actually sounds Hungarian. Yes, Attila was a Hun from central Asia and not a Hungarian, but they do claim him as their own). Julius Fucik is one of the greatest 19th century composers The album was great.
