On the battlefield, the sound of fifes and drums could be heard up to a mile away. Experience the majesty of 18th-century military music up close as the Colonial Williamsburg Fifes and Drums lead visiting corps from around the country in a Grand March from the Capitol down Duke of Gloucester Street to Market Square. The musicians will assemble behind the Courthouse for a Grand Review, with each group performing. This event is part of Colonial Williamsburg’s Drummers Call weekend.
