The Last Post..played on violin with much feeling...
Permalink  

G'day, I know its supposed to be played on Bugle however this violin version of 'The Last Post' loses nothing in feeling and sincerity.....the timbre of the lower notes are so rich and vibrant, and is highly recommended....

My late father was 37 years in the Australian Infantry and the melancholy sound of the Army Bugler playing 'The Last Post' as they lowered his coffin complete with his hat, cap, Sam Browne Belting, medals etc literally reduces me, every time I hear it...particularly as I attended every Dawn Service with him through the years.......Hoo Roo
