The music performed on this album was chosen to highlight the countries and styles of music found at Yorktown - music from Britain and its mercenaries, the Hessians (Germans), and the music of America and its ally, the French. Some of the music can be directly traced to a unit or action at Yorktown, while other tunes trace their origins to one of the countries that fought in 1781.

The album "The World Turned Upside Down," featuring the Fifes and Drums of Colonial Williamsburg, was first released on cd in 2003.
