The Massed Music of the Brigade
A Collection of Standardized Fife Tunes and Drum Accompanyment From the Period 1775-1783
The Collection is an comprehensive source of 18th century martial music, for both the drum and fife. It is organized in four sections: camp duties, tunes for special occasions, march tunes, and an appendix with facsimiles of many of the primary sources. All tunes are carefully copied from the orginials, with the source indicated on each piece.
The Brigade has also produced a companion audio cassette, Military Musick of the American Revolution (Cassette), to serve as an instructional aid for those interested in learning drum signals and camp duties as played on fife or drum.
