Certian instruments were extremely important during the battle. - The fife of piccolo could be heard over the sound of the cannon and other battle noises. - The drum gave out orders and kept the soilders in step. - The bugle was used in cavalry regiments, for they didn't use fifes or drums because they were on horses.

Sources: [] []

After battle soilders used music in many ways - Soilders used music after battle when they were sad over a lost friend form the battle. -They also used the music to lift their spirits. These songs were usually inspirational marching songs. -A song called "Oh, come you from the Battle-field?' shows how people were relieved to see their loved ones and or friends come back to camp after a battle, because it just feels good to see them alive. What can you conclude from these facts? I can conclude that music after battle was important because they needed it to feel safe and have a moral high so that they will not freak out and end up with post tramatic stress disorder.

 * What is your THIRD reason and three to five facts to support it?**

Music applied relief for soilders that were missing home, while they were waiting back at camp. - When soilders were missing home they would sing songs that reminded them of their loved ones. - Music was important back at camp because it would lift their spirits and make them enjoy the time they have because if they didn't enjoy it thats how they would must likely remember their last moments alive. - "But memory, waked by music's art, Expressed in simplest numbers, Subdued the sternest Yankee heart, Made light the Rebel's slumber"
 * What is your FOURTH reason and three to five facts to support it?**

This excerpt from a song entitiled //Music in Camp// show's that music helped to relax the soilders and almost make them forget that they were even there risking their lives for us.

What can you conclude from these facts? I can conclude that soilders needed music to apply relif and almost forget about the horrible war that they are in.
