On The Mall, Edwin Franko Goldman's most popular march, was composed in 1923 for the dedication of the splendid new bandstand in New York City's Central Park, where the famous Goldman Band had given its summer concerts for many years. This concert version is the one used by Dr. Goldman in his own renditions at the Mall concerts. The march derives its name from the Park's spacious Mall or Promenade, where the bandstand is located, and where thousands of New Yorkers gathered to stroll or listen to the strains of melodious music. On The Mall is a musical suggestion of the enthusiasm and spirit of the huge audiences, which attended these concerts. Its animation and cheerfulness are direct and spontaneous and it never fails to arouse in the auditors a mood of brisk alertness — a definite indication of a truly great march. The enjoyment derived from joining in the singing and whistling refrains has further endeared this march to millions of music lovers. The march enjoys enormous and deserved popularity.
