A Kiwi rocker has gone viral after performing an emotional and powerful guitar solo of the Last Post as a tribute to New Zealanders who lost their lives fighting for our freedom. [5] In addition to its normal garrison use, the "Last Post" call had another function at the close of a day of battle. The "Last Post" as played at the end of inspection typically lasted for about 45 seconds; when played ceremonially with notes held for longer, pauses extended, and the expression mournful, typical duration could be 75 seconds or more.[6]. And of course, our fellow ANZACs across the ditch also got in on the act, with musicians across New Zealand standing in solidarity and performing the tune as well. p. 178. "We know Anzac Day is not going to happen. The taptoe was also used to signal the end of the day, but originated from a signal that beer taps had to be shut, hence that the day had ended. The Last Post is the title of a theatre play by David Owen Smith and Peter Came performed during Armistice Week at Lincoln Drill Hall, Lincoln in November 2014. And, as the practice developed - back home now as well as abroad - … The plan of musical action began in April when legendary jazz musician James Morrison put the call out for brass players around the country to help their fellow Aussies. In 2015, Lee Kernaghan recorded a version for his album Spirit of the Anzacs. The "Last Post" is either an A or a B♭ bugle call, primarily within British infantry and Australian infantry regiments, or a D or an E♭ cavalry trumpet call in British cavalry and Royal Regiment of Artillery (Royal Horse Artillery and Royal Artillery), and is used at Commonwealth military funerals, and ceremonies commemorating those who have been killed in war. The Last Post Association uses both silver B♭ bugles and E♭ cavalry trumpets, with either British Army tradition being respected during services at the gate. During services organised by the Royal British Legion, it is expected that no salute is given during the "Last Post" and Silence, as all personnel will have removed head dress as in church service prayer, have heads bowed, weapons inverted, and flags and standards lowered. The ceremony will be broadcast on AFL.com.au, the AFL Live Official App, collingwoodfc.com.au (and the club's app), essendonfc.com.au (and the club's app), and other media platforms on Saturday afternoon, before what would have been the annual Essendon-Collingwood Anzac Day match. In Australia and New Zealand it is also played on Anzac Day, usually before the two-minute silence, which concludes with "The Rouse". It is also incorporated into Karl Jenkins's orchestral mass The Armed Man, and in the movement entitled Small Town, in Peter Sculthorpe's 1963 chamber orchestra work The Fifth Continent. When the post is played during services such as Anzac Day, it is required of all current serving military members to salute for the duration of the call. Amy Beechey had eight sons who all enlisted to fight during the First World War; only three of them survived. Both sides running through the ANZAC banner before the game. COVID-19 may have stopped the Essendon-Collingwood Anzac Day blockbuster, but it won't stop the AFL's annual Anzac Day ceremony. Those without instruments played the song on portable speakers. Robert Graves's poem "The Last Post" describes a soldier's funeral during World War I. Ford Madox Ford used The Last Post as title for part of his tetralogy Parade's End.
