RETREAT MEDLEY - WAV (320K)

O'Carolan's Lament
Colin's Cattle
Soldier's Return

Retreat was the final duty ceremony of the camp musicians' day. All men were to be in tents, the camp secured for the night and guards posted after "Retreat" was beaten. Retreat tunes were often of a reflective mood. Here are two Gaelic laments and a march with a melancholy air that is well matched with the preceding tunes.
Fife arrangements by John Benoit and John Ciaglia

Stony Point
Welsh March
A Hessian Air

The fort at Stony Point, New York was the scene of a daring victory in 1779 by American General Anthony Wayne. The disarmingly lyrical 3/4 time air may be the most beautiful piece we have ever come across. The composers' original harmonies are used in the last two pieces.
Drum score by Scott Mitchell
