The 10th Illinois Volunteer Cavalry Band was formed shortly after the Regiment was mustered in 1861 and was one of the few Cavalry Regiments to have its own 12 member band. The band was only one of several that stayed with their respective Regiment throughout their length of service. Today's band members are music teachers, musicians, and citizens from Central Illinois who enjoy providing music on original period instruments, as it was played during the War of the Rebellion.
