Music had an important place role  in the First World War.

Firstly, she it helped the soldiers and encouraged them. Then, It could serve as propaganda to convey direct messages from the government to the privates. Then, the soldiers played or listened to music to entertain themselves and think about something other than war for a short time. Always during the war, the most used instruments on at the front, in the trenches mainly, were cellos and trumpets made with materials found on the spot whereas often in the music that they could listen to, they were accompanied in addition to with a violin or even piano. As soon as they could the  French, the Yanks, the English or other soldiers made this music à a performance.

Secondly, these songs "Your King and Country Want you" and "Keep the home fire burning" (??) say they have to fight on behalf of their homeland. In this music, "Stay down home were you belong", it's a dialogue between the devil and his son. And "Good-bye ee ! ", here, these women are singing to say good-bye to privates going to war. Unlike the songs "Over there" and "The ban played walzing Mathilda" sung after the war (not 'Over there') , to pay tribute to the soldiers who died for their country contrary to those here were sung during the war to encourage and entertain them, mainly.
Today, when we want to pay tribute on a feast day, like the armistice day for example, we go near a war memorial and we sing the Marseillaise accompanied by rum-tumming of drums to have a side a little more warrior.

The war inspired many writers and poets. So, armed with their feather, they wrote their memoirs to free themselves from the grip of war. The received ideas of writers or other artists were that they built their works under the sun, near a tree but which one ? An oak ? A peine ? A willow ? All this to help them in concentration. Some war lad could have written during the war to decompress this way can be ? (What do you mean...???)

During the first world war, the music played a very important role, and that is what (?) all the different moments when the soldiers sang practising an instrument. We can see that the soldiers sang on any occasion, when they walked towards the trenches, in the cafes or during the long periods of pause when the enemy did not attack.  There were even fanfares to accompany the troops. Each division had each one of an entertainment group so the music was popular. This one will allow the soldiers to be solder stuck together  as well as to cheer up and reduce the fear but it served more especially as entertainment. Music had a very important role also at home, we note that the population of the time having neither radio nor television had to be entertained by the music.  It was also very party (??) in pubs. At the time the music was very popular not for entertainment but for recruitment like "We Don’t Want to Lose, But We Think You Ought to Go" or anti-German songs like "When Belgium Put  the Kybosh on the Kaiser ". By the end of 1914, 30 or more specially composed songs promoting recruitment had been written. There were still 3 million pianos in 1914 in Great Britain.

During the first world war, music had a very important place. she It gave conveyed the possitive feelings during a rather tensed period. In a first time we will talk about all the possitive aspects of music and then in a second time we will talk about the availability of listening to music at this time.

For the soldiers the music makes it possible to be solidarized united between them, in fact the soldiers fight fought in team but the morale mental health is not necessarily always present. Thanks to the music the soldiers will be able to unify by singing the same words on the same melody. In spite of the often sad war, the music will allow the fighter to get out of the way of a song and travel to forget the context in which they are.They will be able to escape and be distracted entertained. in addition to giving a fighter to the fighter (???)  the music also perets (???) to supporte and convince (???) the fear of dying in the trenches, with solidarity and united the feelings of "stronger" is multiplied and the soldiers become invisible. (?????)

The music was very accessible at the time.Today the music is also very accessible but thanks to the new technologies, before we used other means to be able to make our ears go (???). A few years ago the bars, cafes, pubs were very popular (they still are !!)and the music was constant in a loop. the customers put their favorite musics and the other customers heard listened to  their music. (Sens?) is like that of needle in the need the musics were made known (sens ?????), that to pass the time plupard in theaters at the time in the families (Sens ????), minimum a membre of the family could play the piano, there was necessarily a piano in every home (no !). the instruments of music were also much privileged. the radio, the cinema were not yet at their apogee a few years ago at the time  so the music did not undergo any competition while now everything has changed.

In order to finish, the music has generally only possitive points, from the point of view of the civilians the music is the best way to transmit the compasion to the listeners for the war but for from  the point of view of the government the music is a kind tool of propagnade propaganda.

The music during the first world war was used first by soldiers and then by civilians but mainly to get messages for or against the war.

The soldiers listened to these musics and created their own versions of the songs to be able to sing them in the trenches, during the waiting periods of the next attacks, when they returned to the rear lines, during the cold and boredom.  Soldiers used music to keep the spirit, to stay alive, to support and understand each other between groups.

For civilians, music was mainly entertainment. In pubs or in homes, a piano always accompanied the songs of the soldiers. Some music also served as propaganda and encouraged the soldiers to engage to go fight for their country.  They used different ways like women sent to search for possible men to recruit at the end of music hall. Music hall was the best place to sing songs and enlist new soldiers.

However some songs were composed and written by soldiers or former soldiers to show the atrocity of the war.

We notice that these new songs differ from others because George M. Cohan's "overthere" is a song that expresses more "the duty" to go to war and is not a simple music of encouragement to enlist.

In On the contrary, the song "and the band played waltzing Matilda" by The Pogues differs extremely differs from others songs because in this song the singer is Australian ( not English as in the other songs) which allows us to see the war from another angle (You should have developed your study, your research...). This song shows the real consequences of the war: the loss of his leg,the  loss of his friends, trauma, etc.
However, it was not written during the First World War but much later (during the Vietnam war). It denounces all wars.
So we can say that the music, during the first world war but also for all the wars, is an aid for the soldiers to express themselves but also for the State which used the music to make propaganda.

During the first world war, the music had an important role because it was the most (?)way to make propaganda, through the music. It is what we can listen to in on the following songs : Over there and And the band played but what characterizes the role of music during WW1 and in what way do these last two songs differ from the previous ones ? To answer this these questions we are going to talk about in a first part of the main features of the following songs, and in a second part we are going to compare them with the previous ones.

So firstly we can listen on to the first song that the singer sings « get your gun get your gun »; indeed he is talking to a soldier and he tries to convince him to go to the war; but we realize that he says at the end of the music « We'll be over, we're coming over And we won't come back till it's over » and even if he convinces the soldier to go to the war, he explains that he is probably going to die, so we understand that this song is ironic, and that it wants to denounce the government which who makes propaganda all the time, maybe it wants to show the ridiculous that the how ridiculous the government is. About the second song, we can listen that it is the same that as the first song , indeed it is an ironic song because at the end the singer says « And the young people ask "What are they marching for?" (you should have deepened your study of this second song...origin? Date of publication...)

And I ask myself the same question. that can show us that the music used during the first world war aims to show ». This sentence wants to show the same thing that as the first song, namely that they don’t told tell them the truth about the real reasons to fight on the front during that war.

So to conclude we can say that the music during the World War One was a way to make a kind of solidarity between soldiers. It also allowed to make propaganda, as we have said, to denounce the government which don’t told did not tell the truth so through the music, we could denounce it making irony to avoid de censorship

What characterizes the role of music during WW1 ?

Music can be a vocal or instrument sounds combined in such as a way to produce beauty of harmony and expression of emotions. During the First WW1 music played an important role as specially in the trenches and in the houses. It was almost vital for the troops who would sing together for the solidarity but also for the morale (?) and to prepare themselves for the battlefield. Keeping the moral Being in high spirits was very important in their daily life because it gave them hope, maybe heat (?) themselves, make a decision between the bad and the good. Values of reflect (?) an individual spirituality and opinion about the war, as well as those bad conditions they had to face because of their duty? (what do you mean??) Or just because they had to! Keeping the moral up Being in high spirits help's  helps everybody in the trenches, building good relationships. It was known that pianos and violin where the mostly played. Usually made out off boxes and strings for there boots laces (?) or even hair. Music was a vital need. Even for recruiting soldiers to incite young men to sign up, to show that you are a men, you are brave and you can protect the one's you care about.

In the previous songs, women's in "Your King and Country Want You" are persuading men's to go fight for there their country and their king. "Stay down home where you belong" is a conversation between the devil and his son as shown in the picture. "Keep the home fires burning" is a patriotic song very famous. And "good-bye ee!" is a groupe of girls from a factory screaming good bye to the soldiers. So they all are sang before or even during the war. In fact these two new songs "Over there" and "the band played walzing Mathilda" are sang sung after the war (not both !!), after the effort and they pay tribute to all the dead soldiers who gave their life to protect what they loved (it is not the case for 'Over there')
(You should have looked for information about these two songs, read and study the lyrics...+ read the text seriously to find the extra information provided...your work lacks a deep study of the songs and text focused on in this part, therefore you miss the point...)
