A military march composed by Chaim Kopelman, a Jewish musician from Kishinev, in honor of the coronation ceremonies for King Carol this September has been accepted by the King. The King today notified Kopelman that he was touched by this attention of one of his subjects and would permit the march to be named the “March of King Carol II.”
The King has submitted the new march to the ceremonial committee with the expressed desire that it be played during the coronation ceremonies.
