Military Fife & Drum Corps - 30th Pennsylvania Infantry Drum Corps (Courtesy of the LOC)

What was the role of a Civil War Fife & Drum Corps in the army? Every daily activity of the infantry soldier was controlled by the drums and fifes. They played some fifty short pieces of music everyday. Each piece of music had a specific purpose, such as starting or ending a military activity, or playing during a military activity. For example, the fife and drums played pieces of music alerting soldiers to go to sleep, wakeup, charged the enemy, or retreated from the battlefield. Moving soldiers across the battlefield and into battle was also done by specific pieces of music played by the fife and drum corps. Because of the responsibility that the fife and drum corps had, their musical training was far harder than those in brass bands. Most field musicians in the fife and drums corps were young boys between ages 12 to 16. The fife and drum corps consisted of snare drums, bass drums, cymbals, and fifes. (Courtesy of the LOC)
