0:01 The first march ( tail end of a march )
0:06 The Second march
1:49 The Third theme march
2:28 The Forth and last march is called Egerländer Regimentsmarsch.

So, it's actually only two marches. The first two 0:01 and 0:06 are the middle of the Egerländer Marsch https://youtu.be/3-yYk0sWL3U?t=59, then it segues into Wien bleibt Wien Marsch https://youtu.be/uGSym7oeSbo?t=77 and then back to the Egerländer Marsch.

Thank you very much

Carrot I have to know. How did you find out the name these Marches - The app Shazam failed me.

They're both listed on the IMDB page under soundtracks https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059712/soundtrack/?ref_=tt_trv_snd and as far as the Egerländer Marsch goes, I noticed after about a minute the music matched the first few seconds of the movie clip.

The piece that runs from approximately the 0:58 to 2:25 mark (there is a break in the audio in that clip) is a march titled Wien bleibt Wien by Austrian composer Johann Schrammel (1850-1893):

It is sometimes known in English as Vienna Forever ("Wien bleibt Wien" literally means "Vienna remains Vienna.")

EDIT: Oops! Carrot beat my response by five minutes. 🙂

The only German march I know is the one where they are goosestepping in time with each other with the one hand raised up out in front and the leader shouting something in Klingon.
