The Sound of Fife and Drum

“The Sound of Fife and Drum” is a deep dive into the vibrant and driving rhythms of traditional military and folk music, tracing a lineage from Revolutionary War fields to Civil War camps and beyond. This playlist blends the sharp crack of snares with the piercing, melodic voice of the fife, capturing the pulse of historical pageantry and battlefield cadence.

With selections from a wide range of ensembles—including the Middlesex County Volunteers Fifes & Drums, US Army Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps, and Moodus Drum and Fife Corps—the mix features time-honored tunes like “Yankee Doodle,” “The Downfall of Paris,” and “Road to Boston.” It also taps into deeper cuts and medleys that explore European influences and African American fife traditions. Whether you’re into historical reenactment, drum corps precision, or just the raw power of ancient instrumentation, this playlist stays locked in step.
