Patrick S. Gilmore
In G minor, range D2 to D3
A whole town waits for its soldier to come home from the war: the church bell rings, the men cheer, the boys shout, and everyone turns out to welcome Johnny. The bandmaster Patrick Gilmore published it in Boston in 1863, during the American Civil War, under the name Louis Lambert; the piano part is his own.
