    As a lifelong resident of Southampton, myself and two other local songwriters thought it appropriate a couple of years ago to create a respectful tribute to the hundreds of local Titanic crew who died in the sinking.

    What kind of music was played in 3rd class common room

    Many impromptu concerts were apparently held here. I know the room had a piano which was used quite a bit, I've also read that many other passengers had instruments such as violins and even bagpipes. But are there any specific recollections of songs being played? Folk songs, vaudeville, music hall?

    And the Band Played On by Christopher Ward

    Preview of a book soon to be published. Persevere past the first bit, which we all know one way or another, to read a rather depressing account. Tried to find if this was elsewhere on the Board, but it doesn't seem to be...

    This piece of music

    I am being killed trying to recall the name of a certain piece of music. There is a scene where it is played in A Night to Remember. It is the scene in the boat with Molly Brown's "plenty of fat" line, a slow waltz tune please tell me :D

    So, I'm watching Raise the Titanic (it's a great movie to cuddle up with for a Sunday afternoon nap) yesterday. And, as always, the score is one of the two best parts of the film...the other being the special effects, especially the ship breaking the water. Thinking of the score, I think that...

    Are the popular music records of 19001912 available online as mp3 recordings

    I am a huge fan of 1930s,40s and 50s radio drama, and downloaded a library of mp3 recordings of my favorites shows.... I would love to build a library of music that was popular music from the time of the advent of the phonograph up until about 1920. Rather than track down the actual discs- does...

    Until what time did the band play?

    I'm surprised there isn't any thread about the band during the aftermath of the collision and subsequent sinking of the ship. Perhaps I haven't looked in the right places? I'm specifically interested in knowing how long Wallace Hartley and his companions played after the collision. Is there...
