Volume 8

The 1st Brigade Band recreates the music of the 26th North Carolina Band, Gen. Robert E. Lee's favorite band. presented here is an album of quicksteps, ballads, dance tunes, and anthems taken from the original 26th North Carolina band's repertoire of old favorites. The recording was performed with a small band and a very diverse group of instruments, probably as most Confederate bands would have done.
