DIXIE'S LAND
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2017
- Back in 2010, Ryan Kelley of Intersection Films asked us if we would contribute our treatment of “Dixie’s Land” to be the opening of the film documentary that Ryan and his partner, Trent Reeves, were making about the classic Dan Emmett song. We were flattered to be so considered and of course readily agreed. We rendezvoused with the film-makers during the July Gettysburg reenactment that year and filmed our all-acoustic, all-authentic period instrument version.
It took quite a while for Intersection to get the piece completed, but in 2017 they were finally able to get it screened on various individual PBS and other TV broadcast stations across the country, as well as in various college and university settings. Intersection Films’ “Dixie” is an interesting and entertaining piece - clearly relevant in today’s turbulent and politically charged atmosphere.
Unfortunately, the full documentary is no longer available, but a ‘revised trailer’ may be found on RUclips: • Dixie Documentary Revi...
We are presenting here the full recording made that day, which Ryan generously provided to us at our request. We feel it’s especially appealing due to its relaxed and comfortable air, yet vital and energetic presentation. It’s just plain FUN ! It is our hope that when watching, folks can put aside any prejudices they might feel and simply try to enjoy this classic American song in the context of the period.

My family is from the south but most of them chose to fight with the union. My 4th great grand uncle was David “Tinker” Beaty, and he’s so badass I wish I was a direct descendent. He organized a guerrilla militia in Tennessee in response to the Confederate Champ Ferguson Gang, which actually shot and killed another relative of mine from a family the Beatys would marry into. The Union army provided ammunition and general support to David Beaty as he lead one of the most brutal anti confederate guerrilla groups in the war and killed several dozen of the Champ Ferguson Gang, and testified against Champ after the war in a trial that would see the hanging of Champ. All but one of my ancestors, many from Kentucky or Tennessee, chose to fight for the Union. Only one, from Virginia, fought for the Confederacy and he died at the battle of Spotsylvania, VA. This music and that land is my heritage, and it does not equate to racism or hate.
My Alabama mother married my North Dakota father in 1955. She used to sing this song to me when I was child. Always loved it!

It’s a good song but what it represents because of movements after the war like the white league makes it something to be disdained, much like how the battle flag of the army of northern Virginia is a good flag but because of what people used it to represent after the war it became very much a symbol of oppression.

i think that many people often associate this song with racism due to the fact it was made for minstrel shows. some versions of the song do actually have lyrics that support abolition but the original was supposed to be for a black face performer talking about how, despite being freed, he wants to go back to the plantation
i do genuinely like the song but i cant support many of the racist views the song originally intended
They call everything racist.
Why can’t a song be a song. A fine song at that. Thanks for your skill and joy in playing music.

What I love about this song, is that in WWI 1917 when the first american soldiers were getting off the boat in England/ France in preperation to attack Germany, the bands that were hired to greet them, played this song, as they were unable to think of a song that better represented the States at the time, not because of any racial reasons, but becasue it was unusually upbeat considering the state our country and in turn the world was, yet our attitude was unwavering, and to the Europeans, they saw no difference between north and south, Yank or Dixie. We were just the crazy bastards happy to go to war for them, and considering this and the union version were representatives of our bloodiest war, saw it fitting to play it for us.

"Dixie" is a song with music and lyrics by the Northerner Daniel Decatur Emmett (included in the Artists, Movements and Ideas section of the Song of America database.) His song was first performed in a minstrel show in New York City in 1859, but it soon swept the South, and when Confederate President Jefferson Davis took the oath of office in 1861, the band played “Dixie.” Southern troops marched into battle singing the song, and it lifted the spirits of the pro-slavery South for all the years of the war. The composer, who supported the Union, is reported to have said, “If I had known to what use they were going to put my song, I’ll be damned if I’d have written it.”
--Sheila Gaffney
Hmmm. All true. Y'know, they say hindsight is always 20/20. I wonder - if he had known how blatantly racist black-face minstrelsy would become, would he have given up his very successful career (as a minstrel performer for which he wrote the song...) ? Just sayin'.
If I ever go in to combat, whether it's forming a musket line or climbing out of a dropship on another planet, I want this song playing in the background.

"DixieLand" History: "Although known as a Southern anthem, “Dixie’s Land,” aka “Dixie” was written for the minstrel stage by Daniel Decatur Emmett in New York City. The song was so popular in the South that it became generally accepted as the rallying song of the Confederacy.
Abraham Lincoln loved the song since he first heard it at a show by the Rumsey and Newcomb Minstrels in Chicago in 1860. According to a fellow attorney who attended the show with him, after “Dixie’s Land” was played, Lincoln clapped and shouted “Let’s have it again! Let’s have it again!”
Edit: I made a mistake about the roots of the Dix (and I knew better). Thanks to Ted Lawrence for reminding me. "DixieLand" comes from The Citizen's Bank of Louisiana, chartered in 1833. The bank issued 10-dollar notes, with the red colored notes printed with the French "dix" ("ten") on the back. They were known as "dixie" notes and were traded especially in the cotton trade up the Mississippi. To have a pocketful of Dixies meant you came from New Orleans and had sold your cotton. Up north, they knew "DixieLand" was down south where they traded in "dixies".
Excellent work, George !!! One of the best depositions on the subject to date ! Something new, too ! I never heard the 2nd paragraph before. Interesting !
Louisiane, DIX, Chesapeake battle, Lafayette, french armies fighting the brits, GT de Beauregard, Gen Mouton, the French left an impressive mark on US history didn't they?
Saddly, we didn't find good land for wine...
Cool history!
Lincoln was a Southerner. He probably had to sleep on the couch a lot, his wife's family owned slaves.🤔
that's not surprising, Kentucky is actually the land of Lincoln. Like everything around here the North took credit for thing's in our society😔

The Stars and Bars is already restricted, ,, will be prohibited within 20 years.
Blatant expressions of White Southern Culture will follow close behind.
Statues , symbols , songs, artifacts, even true History will be either modified to fit the agenda,,, or eliminated completely. The South will fall to the Agenda of Rejection and Repentance for all aspects of Western Civilization.. It's a World Wide phenomenon driven by demographic replacement.
The Waves of Replacement on a global scale, are relentless.
White women = below replacement fertility
POC= just open your eyes and look around, you will see the future.
Reasonable Speculation Unless we fight it and make a nation of our own. Have you heard of the Northwest imperative and the Northwest front?
The Northwest Imperative gets Bad Press (supremacism, Nazi, murderous, hatefully Whites),,or NO press at all.
So bad start right there.
The entire Great Replacement conversation has been dismissed as the ridiculous hallucinations of privilaged Whites.
Currently no Governmental Authority, whether Local, State, Federal, will tolerate even a designated White School District, ,let alone a White Region.
A single All White School would not be tolerated.
A grassroots movement to the Northwest may gain some traction. But in an environment of strong POC activism(sanctioned by Gov, Corporations, and private donors),,,,
and weak, unrecognized, silenced or even Outlawed White activism,
any progress made will be broken up by forced integration.
Parts of Eastern Europe seem to be the only possibility for a future White Homeland.. The UN and EU will fight hard to stop it..
I was born down south and my grandfather lives in the middle of Appalachian Virginia. I’d ride with him in his truck and we’d listen to bluegrass with the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in the background. Every stay at his place was always so magical.

Hooray for Dixie! Greetings from Slovakia.
The Confederate's song was always a happier tune than the Union's, imo.
I've long thought the same. Here's a Yankee song I once had framed: "Mother, I'm Coming Home to Die." How's that for a cheery title ?
Idk, Union Dixie slaps
I mean, it isn't even "the Confederate's" song... it's from before the war, and was (and still is, imo) a folksong. This is no display of racism, its preservation of culture, a culture which is under constant scrutiny by people today, saying statues and pieces of cloth offend them. This is all coming from a yankee, but I swear, after moving here to NC, god, I'm really trying to prove to my native neighbors that I am a southerner at heart. This is something to admire. God bless Dixie's Land! And thank the 2nd South Carolina String Band! You guys are masters of your art, and the fact that whenever you hear Dixie's Land being played anywhere, it's most likely being played by them, speaks volumes about their talent. Thank you all for preserving history! God bless
@@2ndSouthCarolinaStringBand no joke, no idea the North had a song. What is it called?
@@lanadellhatestheclock3325 They had lots of songs. It's just that many were not very happy-ish... Example: "Mother Dear, I'm Coming to You Dead", "The Vacant Chair", "All Quiet Along the Potomac Tonight," ("Except now and then a stray picket Is shot as he walks on his beat to and fro, By a rifleman hid in the thicket.") How's that for cheery ? I could go on... You could Google 'favorite Civil War Union songs'.
I practiced this song when I got English training in Japanese military.
thank you very much from Japan!
I always loved to hear this played at Georgia football games
I am a born American northerner but have lived in the South most of my life. I couldn't care less to ever live in the North. The South is where my heart lives. God bless the South.
As someone born and raised in the south there’s only 2 negatives no snow and high humidity so if you like the heat then there’s no better place in the Americas
South's music always makes us feel a je-ne-sais-quoi... Greeting from France!
Panzee le Creusois oui oui
who's still listening to this in 1863?
Seriously ! Am I right ?!
Amazing job, one of if not the best renditions I've heard. Keep up the good work boys.
Is that the 'Jim Bob' I used to serve with ? 7th Tenn ? Thanks for the kind word either way !!!
@@2ndSouthCarolinaStringBand Unfortunately not, I had no such honor. I'm from New Jersey, sorry to disappoint.
I just love the southern music. Greetings from Australia.
Even as a nonwhite; I admire this. Beautiful music, prideful people. God bless dixie!

Greetings from Colombia. South America
Que Colombia resuelva su propia guerra civil!
Hello from columbia south Carolina lol
I thought you would say South Carolina 🤣
My wife is Colombian from Cali. I am a from Petersburg. We dont need a national government for nothing!
@Messenger Colombia is a mess politically, in the past the country suffered from centralism, then came the separation of Venezuela and Ecuador and later a civil war.
Then the government decided to split offices only between the two main political parties to end the war and the commies got angry, but most importantly, they've also got a nice argument to use as a banner for people to join their cause - corruption and a new oligarchy.
Their arguments where real, the government was truly corrupted, but their objectives as a faction where socialist crap.
Then came the bandorelism criminals and later the everlasting guerrillas supported bot by Cuba, Venezuela, Ecuador (for some time) and even Nicaragua.
The conflict has been long and violent, the commies lost support. But the governments from the right are into way too many corruption scandals, they own a lot of land and distribute a lot of tax money into their own families, so the left is gaining way too much support, those idiots don't think about politics but of some sort of revenge. And their populist representative is as corrupt as their counterparts in office, even worse as he was an ex-guerrilla member and the destitute mayor of Bogotá for not doing actually anything and messing up with the city. It's confusing speech is what has many people who seem to suffer from amnesia supporting him
What's left clean of the country's political environment are the Center and Center-right parties. The rest is a bunch of chimpanzees who only use the congress to throw rocks at each other and sleep rather than to do something useful for the country.
But you know, as Plato criticized democracy for most people to choice sofists, populists and clowns as leaders rather than actual politicians, philosophers and people with actual knowledge who are truly commited to that charge.
For now our country is a polarised mess and advance is slow.
We don't need more liberalism or left policies, we just need to end corruption and the conflict will be over.
As a president myself, I really enjoyed it. 5 dollars for you !
Washington lead a war of rebellion and won there is no way he wouldn’t love this song
@@torpid5092 here you are foolish enough to question the man himself. smh
I stand with Texas
Yes🤠💪
Texas para los texanos, cuiden su tierra y raíces, y fck California. Saludos desde México
@@vicktordangp2520Incredibly based take
@@adamkerman475Damn straight.
It gives me some hope to see people who still love the the southern culture of old.
I don't really mind if the people display confederate flags, as long as its the right one. The one that is all white.
@Cameron Putt Yeah you mean playing a song that supported slavery... You don't see germans going around celebrating nazi history do you?
@Cameron Putt It's a southern song and many southerners supported slavery
VirtualizingReality germany has statues of nazi soldiers, most of them respect that they gave their lives for something they truly believed in
@Cameron Putt Typical leftist response
Love the song!
God bless the South
Greetings from El Salvador
J Guevara Howdy! El Salvador is great! To bad it’s corrupt!
Opa Locka Elementary School, Florida - we sang 'Dixie' at every assembly - it was our favorite song.
Theres nothing wrong with being proud of where you were born or live!!
All my ancestors fought for the Union, as I probably would have. But we had nothing on this song.
There will always be a place in our hearts and history for Southern treasure like this.
Thanks, Tim, for your thoughtful forbearance and understanding. My brother and my ggf was 4 years in the 26th Illinois Vol. Inf'y Reg't. The other, 7th Tenn Cavalry under N.B. Forrest for 4 years. True students of the conflict soon recognize the profound respect both sides had for the other. The Union definitely won,
but the south absolutely had the best music...
The Union had a Union version to mock them and it is actually kinda creative but there are stereotypes in the song so this one gets a 1-up
What decided where you fought was where you lived and nothing more unless your ancestors were the president of a border state.
So you would fight for federal tyranny?
@FREEDOMFIGHTER47 sure it was . . . . .
Very nice, greetings from Brazil. And you are right in defending your history. #HeritagenotHate
Such a catchy tune and a song of pride, you really have to appreciate the 1800’s clothing and instruments, the old-style house and greenery etc.... I just really feel this presentation would be complete if something was hanging in the background.
And what did you have in mind, I'm wondering...?
@@2ndSouthCarolinaStringBand well, just like a banner or confederate flag hanging off the house, maybe even a Jesus cross standing upright on the lawn. Adds a bit more context
Oh, thank goodness ! No context needed beyond the obvious here: a Confederate camp band playing one of their favorite tunes.@@bastymanguy
Dixie can be a sad song when played slow, happy when fast.
🎼💖🎼
I am from England
The brave men of the south and the north Should always be remembered this is history of america
Amen.
never have I agreed with something so much.
Gave it the 61st like :D
I’m biracial and proud to be southern. Because of the the media and hate groups who refuse to let the horrible past die, they have given the south a bad image. Most southerners are proud, hard working, God fearing people. No different than anyone else.
Who Dat Mafia sorry that your parents did that to you
@@steviechampagne lol
Who Dat Mafia - Jewry
Yup, the anti white media is getting old, we just want to be happy and get along with everyone.
Why are people in the replies insulting you for bieng biracial? Or are these just edgy jokes that im about to get whooshed to?
(And im pretty sure most people are biracial in someway)
Those rebs sure can play.
Thanks, Micah !!!
Tunes from this era originated from British Isles and Ireland of course - either way worth dancing to to
