There was no specific drum & bugle music published during the war, but Nevins' 1861/64 manual "ARMY REGULATIONS FOR THE DRUM, FIFE & BUGLE", carried by some sutlers, contains 2/4 and 6/8 bugle quicksteps which can be paired very nicely with drum quicksteps.

What Joe suggests is a good idea.

We've been using these at times, along with some of the trios. If you have a good drummer or two, they can ad lib the beat well.

We have fife and drums, but sometimes they get bored and let me do some of the Quick Steps, etc. :cool:
