This compilation of thirteen songs incorporates drums, fifes, bugles and other instruments used during the Civil War to perform such notable tunes as Aura Lee; Hail Columbia; Tenting on the Old Campground; My Old Kentucky Home; Maryland, My Maryland; and others. Approximately 49 minutes.

Civil War Military Music
Regimental bands of the Confederacy and Union armies served their units in many ways. They were highly effective in attracting new recruits and were morale boosters of the first magnitude - playing lively marches and quicksteps to lift the spirits of war-weary soldiers on the march and to inspire them before and during battle. Step back in time as you listen to the same music performed on authentic period instruments by The Heritage Americana Brass Band and The Fife & Drums of Musick Virginia. 59 minutes.

Civil War Tribute Collection
The Cumberlands. During the Civil War, music was a major source of entertainment for the troops and for the people at home. This fifteen-song collection expresses the people's feelings of the era, tells stories, records the histories of the great battles and catches the mood of the lonely soldier on the battlefront. The band uses the fiddle, the mandolin, the banjo and the acoustic bass - all instruments prevalently used during the period - to create a stirring bluegrass tribute to the Civil War. Approximately 51 minutes.

Confederate Sheet Music
As one music publisher said, "The South must not only fight her own battles but sing her own songs and dance to music composed by her own children." This reference book is distinguished by three major differences from previously published works: it lists sheet music that is listed nowhere else; it gives complete lyrics for all extant songs, making it a rich source for researchers; and it provides a brief historical background for many of the songs. 264 pages, 86 photographs and illustrations, 7"x 10", hardcover.

Hard Road
The 2nd South Carolina String Band is one of the most active and popular Civil War camp bands in America and is enjoyed by reenactors and everyone else who likes a rollicking good time. Their music is boisterous and high-spirited, evoking the days when soldiers entertained their comrades around the campfire with the tunes of minstrel composers such as Dan Emmett and Stephen Foster. "The players of the 2nd South Carolina String Band are clearly 'musical reenactors' striving to re-create the real sound of Confederate soldier-musicians." - Civil War Times Illustrated. 71 min.
