Nine days to go and nine Santa Clauses are on the march! Well, at least the Santa Claus March is my gift to you. This obscure two step was composed by Fred Vokoun in 1907. Vokoun is a mystery, in fact my search turned up nothing about him aside from the fact he composed the Santa Claus March in 1907 and that he dedicated it to "Wm. J. Schwarz of Boston, Mass. (A Prince of Good fellows)". The publisher of the Santa Claus March, the Sam Fox Publishing Company, was located in Cleveland but from the websites I checked, nothing else has been discovered about Mr. Vokoun.
So, my 9th day gift is a mystery, just like a neatly wrapped package under the Christmas tree!
