Excellent video, once again an outstandig combination of entertainment and history lesson
Thank you for explaining each instrument- very interesting
Outstanding information. I have been researching the history of the Norfolk Volunteer Rifles in the UK. They would have looked identical to Confederate soldiers and would have sounded very much like this. It is a period of music history that is not re-enacted as much on this side of the pond so it is lovely to get a sense of exactly how they would have come across.
Always loved the sound of a marching snare drum. Brings back memories of my HS marching band days...
The drums are wonderful to listen to. I love reenactments.

Excellent video guys, just to point out I am on the credits twice (Robert Dickson). Keep up the good work!
very well done 73rd OVI. although I'm more familiar with the musket and gunpowder I do truly enjoy field music at events. Hope to hear you in person this marching season. *LIKED* the video pards.
It's so weird that how I learned basic music (without instruction) that Eb (flat) to me is a D# (sharp). Regardless, I really enjoyed this video, and am so jealous of how much these guys know musically. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful video and brass band lesson. Would like some info on where I can find brass band music to listen to while working in my home making Civil War reproduction quilts.

Why is the saber always worn with the blade facing behind the person. I've never understood that.

It is not when worn by cavalry. Rather, it is usually simply hooked up there. In this case, wrapping the leather around the scabbard helps it to stay put when I walk. It is meant to be lowered off the hook before being drawn. Hope this helps! Will

@@CivilWarDigitalDigest yes. I found this helpful and am now better able to help others who may be wondering why it is like that.
