Taps In Entirety

Recommended Posts

Maybe more appropriate for Remembrance Day, but I got the e-mail today, thought I'd share

 

This is the first time I had ever heard TAPS played in full. Talented young lady and appropriate for Remembrance Day, and to honour all those who have served or are serving their country
