The primary purpose for this page is for Scouts to be able to hear these calls as an aid to learning them. Feel free to link to this page, or to copy these calls to a floppy or flash drive to send home with your aspiring buglers. (I encourage our Scouts to learn Assembly, Taps, and To The Colors first).


This is the complete set of calls from the Music and Bugling Merit Badge booklet, published by the Boy Scouts of America.

I entered the music into the NoteWorthy Composer music program and exported as MIDI files.

Other notes: MIDI is a very compact form for this music. The quality (how much it actually sounds like a bugle) is marginal and will vary with your sound card.
