The Storming of El Caney

"The Storming of El Caney" is a descriptive musical work by Russell Alexander. It is frequently performed at a galop tempo, and has been recorded by bands including Merle Evans' Ringling Bros.-Barnum and Bailey circus band and The Washington Winds.

"The Storming of El Caney" played by the Bensenville Municipal Band conducted by Fred Lewis. Recorded in concert May 17, 1986.

Named after a famous Spanish–American War battle, this work was published in 1903. It is believed that this work originally had a different title, as a manuscript of an entirely different work with this same title is in the archives of Alexander's primary publisher, the C. L. Barnhouse Company.
