Kampen Janitsjar

edit

In the text, Kampen Janitsjar is called a "Janissary Orchestra". This seems to be a "Norwenglish" term based on a very literal translation of "Janitsjarorkester". The term "Janissary Orchestra" is extremely seldom, e.g. a Google search for "Janissary Orchestra" returns only a few hundred hits, with this Wikipedia article as one of the first...

It would be much more in line with common practice to use the term "Marching Band" instead. The term "Marching Band" is well described in Wikipedia, and fits very well to Kampen Janitsjar. 109.189.184.206 (talk) 10:41, 1 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
