I love the sound on the Civil War era bugle. I may NEED one of those. Or, simply be as good as the bugler is another option. Practice, practice, practice.
I was in the Army many years ago. I would like to learn how to play Taps on the bugle and then take part in funerals/ceremonies. How do I do this?
Thanks, Gary
great for school
I served in the Army for 34 years 10 months 7 days i would like to have taps played when i die and i love it

Is there any chance I can get a copy of the john wayne version of this? And do you know who owns the rights to the recording, I want to use it in a song I am recording… thanks!
Thank you for this website.and your service to our country.
I have looked all over for a correct rendition in sheet music for Echo Taps, I assume (and hope, anyway), roughly the way we were taught to perform it as Marine buglers. Do you know where or if such music exists, or if it’s just been passed down from bugler to bugler over the years?
