Military music is probably as old as warfare itself: soldier's trumpets were found in the tomb of the Pharaoh Tutankhamen, and the armies of ancient Greece and Rome marched to the sound of a reed pipe. Music has played a practical part in a soldier's life all through the centuries, as well as adding to the splendor of ceremonial military occasions and providing entertainment for the soldiers leisure hours.
