| The New York Ancients Fife & Drum Corps |
The New York Ancients Fife and Drum Corps was organized in 1976 in the
Bicentennial year of the founding of our nation. Our original members were
drawn from well known organizations in the New York area such as the
Chippewa Fife & Drum Corps and the New York Regimental Fife and Drum
Band. During the past third of a century we have grown and spread out to
include fifers and drummers from Connecticut to Florida and from the East
Coast to as far west as Arizona. During that period we have participated in
numerous patriotic and civic events as well as parades, musters and
competitions. Our aim is to help perpetuate the early American martial and
folk music reminiscent of the spirit which led to our nation's founding.
