Additional Information: Campaign Dances is drawn from the opera Democracy: An American Comedy, with a libretto by Romulus Linney. The spoken texts, which are sung by the chorus in the opera, are drawn from campaign songs and slogans of Ulysses S. Grant. The music of Campaign Dances is drawn from Act I Scene 1 of the opera, a party at the White House, and Act I Scene 5, at Mount Vernon, where the characters observe a Revolutionary War re-enactment with fife and drum
