I believe Pomp and Circumstance, in its simplest form, is just what it says. A celebration (Pomp) of the current/existing situation unfolding (Circumstance). Not just for graduation, although the song will immediately remind us of that. Very much used in British older times for celebratory occasions....even Churchill was ‘presented’ with that music.
