The song playing is "The Battle Hymn of the Republic".

Julia Ward Howe wrote this song after having visited
some of the Union troops with her doctor husband
during the Civil War.

Often she had thought of making new lyrics for the
song, popular at that time, "John Brown's Body" and
early one morning, the words came to her.
