Wellington's Victory...
Can someone summarize the movements of this piece for a report that I have to do?

It begins with a representation of the Battle, with the British drums and Trumpets, followed by 'Rule Britannia'. Then comes the French drums and trumpets with the French song 'Malbrouk s'en va-t-en guerre'. The account of the battle gives way to storm music that ends with an Andante, the French theme modulating to the minor to symbolize defeat. The second part of the work is the victory Symphony which culminates in a lively fugato on the British national anthem.
