330 .. $a Music and dance are only rarely mentioned in eyewitness accounts of the siege of the
Alamo. But the joining together of men from diverse backgrounds, desperate, yet determined
to go down fighting for the cause of freedom, would undoubtedly have given rise to
a wealth of music and dances. The Alamo defenders could have shared them whole-heartedly,
had the circumstances been less dramatic. As it became clear to them that they were
doomed, they probably thought back ~on their lives, seeking courage and comfort from
their memories. Perhaps the tholqtt of a jolly celebration, with music and dances
from a distant home, momentarily distracted them from their present predicamenl ln
the absence of specific documentation, the only way to surmise the sort of tunes they
might have sung, played, or danced to cheer themselves is to refer to their ancestral
traditions. ln this book, Gérard Dôle, f olklorist, field researcher and musician,
took the liberty to wonder about David Crockett's fiddle, John McGregor's bagpipes,
and, in general, the wealth of music and dance found in Texas at the time of its war
for independence. He also unveils part of the mystery of Moses Rose, "Soldier of the
Alamo." $2 éditeur
