Echoes of Poltava - I - March of the Danish Grenadier

From the 1715 manuscript of Gustaf Blidström, a Swedish soldier and oboist taken to Tobolsk as a prisoner of war during the Great Northern War. The album is  A collaborative album from Swedish duo "Laude Novella" and Russian troupe "Insula Magica" which collects marches, dances, folk songs, and church chants inspired by and contemporary to the Great Northern War of 1700-1721, in both the Swedish and Russian languages. With the distance of time, the sound of the guns is gone, but the thoughts of the men and women of the age live on through new performances. Listen to the culture of empire, greed, and fear; love, relief and rejoicing - as from any age, they are compelling still today.

soldier c1720

the wiki reads This cherubic wooden figure designed for comic effect is one of the earliest representations of a Scottish soldier in service with the British Army. It was one of several that decorated the 'Old Chelsea Bun-House', a London coffee-house close to the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, a home for discharged soldiers founded in the 1680s. The uniform is that of the Royal North British Fusiliers, an infantry regiment formed in 1678. The regiment's name reveals its Scottish identity, as does the figure's thistle cap badge . It is one of three such figures now displayed in the Scottish National War Museum in Edinburgh Castle.
