EDITORS COMMENTS
- a captivating and evocative title for this music cover, selected and arranged by J. Ord Hume during the tumultuous year of 1915, amidst the backdrop of the First World War. The cover, a vibrant and patriotic display of military might, invites listeners to join the ranks and contribute to the war effort. The image is a rich tapestry of vignettes, each one showcasing a distinct moment in the life of a British soldier. A recruit, clad in the iconic khaki uniform, eagerly signs up, his eyes filled with determination and resolve. Elsewhere, soldiers are seen charging into battle, their faces set in grim determination, their bayonets fixed and ready for action. The cover also depicts moments of camaraderie and solidarity, with soldiers huddled around a makeshift campfire, sharing stories and laughter. Yet, even in the midst of these moments of respite, the looming threat of the enemy is never far away. Soldiers are shown disembarking from ships, ready to set foot on foreign soil and engage in the frontline action. Despite the dangers and hardships of war, the cover exudes an undeniable sense of hope and optimism. The victorious return of soldiers, their faces beaming with pride and relief, is a testament to the enduring spirit of the British army. The title, "For King & Country," serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during this time, and the unwavering patriotism that drove them to fight for their country. This music cover, a descriptive and grand military fantasia, is a poignant reminder of the events and emotions that defined the First World War. Arranged by J. Ord Hume in 1915, it stands as a testament to the power of music to evoke emotion and inspire action.
