American Originals Fife & Drum Corps

This performance at the Rochester International Marine Tattoo highlights traditional fife music to contemporary music with precision drumming and marching. The American Originals Fife & Drum Corps was formed in 1991 by military musicians to preserve the sounds of our historical past while incorporating Military Precision, Techniques and Execution in order to provide a well rounded presentation of musical excellence. The Corps is comprised of some of the finest fifers and drummers in the United States and has become one of the most popular musical organizations in the Drum Corps world. The corps performs regularly for patriotic events throughout the Eastern United States and especially in our Nation's Capitol.

[MrDanmeyers]

nice act--but others did it first.

[CJCbassman09]

very interestion, and why does only one of the snare drummers have a drag rope?

[DuckerDuckerDunkman]

That was pretty cool but I still prefer the elite awsomness of the Swiss top secret drummers. These people are still pretty good though.

[TWBaltz]

American Originals drum instructor went to Switzerland and taught Top Secret the American Originals drum solo. AO did not borrow from Top Secret, it was the other way around. American Originals instructor also taught the same drum solo to the 21st Grey Coat Batallion FDC.
