Coleraine Fife and Drum at the Lord Mayor Show in London 2019 #164143070
Description
Coleraine Fife and Drum is a musical ensemble consisting of fifes and drums. Fifes are an ancient wind instrument, referred to in Europe as the `Schweizerpfeife`, or Swiss flute. Fifes have been in use by military organizations in their modern form since the 16th century. Fifes originally accompanied companies of soldiers, providing music while on the march and in camp. Drums have had a role in militaries going back farther in history. Fifes have always been an infantry musical instrument. Modern non-military Fife and Drum Corps are organizations with volunteer or paid performers.
