American Civil War Band Music Audio
When I heard the music of the bands from the Civil War I was transported to another era and remembered my history and all the classics that one has read about the time. It was another world altogether, even though the war lasted nearly a decade, the grace and valor of the people could not be denied. May be I am a die hard romantic but I cannot help being captivated by those times when even musicians accompanied the armies into the battle field, urging and inspiring the soldiers to venture forth into battle and fight for victory alone. In this day and age when music is played to our solders over the wireless from thousands of miles away, this audio CD, with 22 files or numbers, will help you appreciate that well trained people who made up the Band and went to the war front with only their musical instruments, not guns, just to egg the soldiers on. Performing under fire became commonplace for bands and many performed at the front during battle playing the liveliest airs in their repertory. They too were heroes, though unsung, who helped win the war as General Sheridan rightly remarked while paying tribute to Army bands "Music has done its share, and more than its share, in winning this war."
