In-universe, during the time of Palpatine's reign over the Empire, was there a preferred musical theme designed to accompany Imperial troop displays and marches?
Answer
According to Wookieepedia, referenced to Star Wars Rebels, the answer is yes:
The Imperial anthem was a patriotic musical piece adopted by the Galactic Empire. During Empire Day parades, an upbeat version of the anthem was played, representing everything that the Empire stood for. By 3272 LY, on the Outer Rim planet of Lothal, the Imperial anthem was also played before official grav-ball championship matches, as well as on the Empire's fifteenth annual Empire Day.
The in-universe Imperial anthem is a variation of the considerably more famous out-of-universe Imperial March by John Williams.
