Great job guys. Was it cold enough for ya?! My only critisim is that you are playing the wrong version of The British Grenadiers. The version you are playing is from the Napoleonic Wars, a mistake also made in The Patriot.
We weren't portraying Rev War, so no we wouldn't be American's. Also their uniform is a different design, cut and look, but they are similar. In the 1770s, the British musicians wore lavishly decorated coats to distinguish themselves on the battlefield as well as the tall bear fur hats.
Thanks for the comments on the fifing, it's always good to get constructive criticism. Next time try wording it more constructively, you sound a bit superior. Cheers!
If you play British Grenadiers in that key, be sure to use the C natural fingering. Oh, and musicians wore the reverse colors, so you would actually be Americans.
You are not dorks!!! That is my favorite type of fife and drum music, the random spontaneous kind. I just transferred into the 10th Foot as a fifer, what regiment are you with? Nice drum by the way...
ok, im trying to learn fife, iv got a lot, but i was wondering if this fife is in B Flat?
