The Commencement of the Duty
Military Music of the War of 1812

This is a well research, wonderfully mastered collection of fife, drum and bugle music. This CD wakes you up in the morning with the Revielle, takes you through the duties, trials, and amusement of a soldier's day, and put you to bed with the retreat and taptoo. For the scholar, each tune has its melody, harmony and drum beating documented and cited. In addition to this, you the listener are placed in the mood for each piece by a brief narration drawn from an 1812 soldier's account or army orders.

You will not find this anywhere else on the internet!
