    Drummer's Call is a weekend devoted to the demonstration of regional regimental field music. During the war for American independence, armies relied on field music to communicate orders, signal tactical maneuvers, and provide musical entertainment. The fife and drum were the primary instruments used by British and American armies. Hear the music of Revolution-era military units in this demonstration. Helpful Information: This event will take place on Magazine Yard.
