i can tell you that at my dad's funeral it was played live. VERY impressive, as well as the flag folding. Very proud of the whole thing. held it together pretty well until i heard that horn start......

Having said that, i cannot play anything outside of the air drums.

I was in DC Monday and visited Arlington Cemetary. I was able to see a group of Honor Flight veterans from Texas. They presented the wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown. Seeing the process, watching those elderly veterans get out of their wheel chairs to salute was something to appreciate. Then while Taps was being played there was a 21 gun salute from a funeral that was in progress. There were not many dry eyes there.
