The Battle of Shiloh, was a major battle in the Western Theater of the American Civil War, fought on April 6 and April 7, 1862, in southwestern Tennessee. Confederate forces under Generals Albert Sidney Johnston and P.G.T. Beauregard launched a surprise attack against the Union Army of Maj. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant. The Confederates achieved some initial success on the first day but were ultimately defeated on the second day.

I love
a song with some history behind it. The horns sound so desperate against the tense violins an excellent composition. I can see the men creeping up on Ulysses. The build up towards the end is subtle enough to turn the tide in the battle. Excellent

Thanks Tim,
Don't always do it myself but I like a story or in this case some HIStory behind a song.
Best,
Charlie

I like the way
the music conveys the tension of the story - I agree with Tim about the slow relentless build up too. Certainly held my attention, enjoyed.
Cheers

Thanks Len,
I'm amazed I can hold someone's attention for 6 seconds let alone 6 minutes.
Take Care,
Charlie

Battle music
Is fun to do and you have done a nice job here. I hear the march... the foreboding... the ebbing pride and the pangs of regret. I might have pulled back the repeated notes in the mix... or perhaps had them build... but this certainly well thought out and nicely executed. Good work...

You have a fighting chance
if you can find the right balance.
Hey maybe I'm taking this war thing too far.
Thanks Bob.

Since I was a teenager I've been making short films. I always loved making them but there was something very special about taking the footage into a quiet editing room then placing one shot against another. That's when the magic really happened. And ... [see more]
