True To Who I Am (Rehearsal Track)

This is a song with an anthem-like feel, showcased in the musical "The American Civil War". The composition draws inspiration from the real-life story of Albert Cashier, an immigrant from Ireland who joined the Union Army in the American Civil War. Cashier took on a male persona prior to enlisting and continued with it for the majority of her life. She gained recognition as one of the several women who served disguised as men during the Civil War. It is suitable and easily understood in any educational or concert environment.
