Musician Memorial

jcookHW — 2018-03-11 21:44:27 UTC

As the Titanic struck an iceberg and began to sink beneath the waves, the eight musicians (a string trio and a five-piece band) kept playing, comforting and calming the passengers as panic mounted. Reportedly, they played until the very end. All eight of these courageous and selfless musicians perished in the disaster. Their incredible courage, though, lives on as one of the Titanic's most enduring legends.
