"...the paragon of such a piece can only be achieved by those with virtuosic skill... This isn't a good use of "paragon" here. --Wetman 00:05, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sousa's intentions[edit]

John Philip Sousa, who wrote the Presidential Polonaise, intended to keep visitors moving briskly through the White House receiving line.

What business did Sousa have in intending to keep visitors moving briskly through the White House receiving line? Surely it was the White House officials or the President who had this intention, and they asked Sousa to provide some music to facilitate such an outcome. -- Jack of Oz ... speak! ... 17:20, 23 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Original name of the dance[edit]

The French variation should not be used for the name of the Polish national dance. I am however leaving this thread for a further discussion of the issue.

Please mind that the "polonaise" was used used two centuries ago. Before we used to called it "pieszy" or "chodzony". That has changed in XX century and ever since we call it Polonez, until this very day.
