Details
This is a song with an anthem-like feel from the musical "The American Civil War", inspired by the real-life story of Albert Cashier, an immigrant from Ireland. Cashier served in the Union Army under a male identity during the American Civil War and continued to live as a man for the majority of her life. She gained recognition as one of several women who fought as men during the Civil War. It's a piece that's both accessible and suitable for any educational or concert environment.
