The Charge of the Light Brigade was a colossal error of mistaken orders, carried out by brave men, despite the men knowing it meant almost certain death. During the Battle of Balaclava they were mistakenly ordered to charge into a valley that was flanked on both sides by Russian and at the end of the valley was the Russian heavy artillery. This tragic and cataclysmic event for the British military shocked the public and inspired Alfred, Lord Tennyson to write his stirring poem of the events just 6 weeks after the event occurred. A veteran of the charge, Trumpeter Martin Leonard Landfried, from the 17th Lancers made a recording on an Edison cylinder which we use in this film of him playing the same trumpet that he used on that fateful day in the Crimea in 1854.
