Old Guard Solo & Ensemble Festival - Roy Wulf

This video was uploaded so that Roy could participate in the Old Guard's Solo & Ensemble Festival in 2020. The songs played are Jefferson and Liberty, Some Distance from Prussia, Rally Round the Flag, and Ed Kellogg's Quickstep.

I would love to see more fife videos from Roy. KZbin has hardly any beginner instruction for the instrument, and Roy is such an amazing ambassador for the music.

Hey, that's a very good idea! I know that when Roy started fifing, we looked for videos for how to play simple tunes on the fife. Roy could certainly do that with tunes as well as with explaining the instrument.

@@mr.roywulfYou certainly should!

loved the field music pard, especially when on the march .. thanks pard for music *LIKED* the video --LT

[@mr.roywulf]

So glad you enjoyed it. This was the first video we ever posted on this channel!

[@sp00k48]

I've begun playing fife in the last couple months, and just recently, I finally went out and purchased myself a Peeler Fife copied from an original Firth and Pond.

[@mr.roywulf]

That's quite a coincidence! I own a Peeler Ferrary fife, and I also purchased another Peeler Ferrary (in the mopane wood) as a gift for a friend who plays the flute. I'm very happy with the Ferrary, so I am sure you will like the Firth and Pond replica.

​@@mr.roywulf Also, any advice on fifing would be greatly appreciated.

[@mr.roywulf]

@@sp00k48 I'll see if I can find time to get around to posting some videos about that.

Didn't you reenact as a fifer with the Regiment von Huyn and play German tunes on the violin at The Hunters Head Tavern in Upperville, Virginia after a Field Day in Waterford?

[@mr.roywulf]

Yes, that's me too. facebook.com/regtvonhuyn/videos/we-are-now-5-days-away-for-the-regimental-field-day-this-saturday-march-9th-in-w/720656926570828
