El Deguello at The Alamo, ft. Ron Lawrence Trumpet

- March 6th is the anniversary of the final assault on the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas. To honor those who lost their lives on that day in 1836, we put together a short music video. The music chosen to record for the video is “El Degüello.” The first tune is the original, historical Spanish bugle call used to commence the battle. The second melody is the tune composed by Dmitri Tiomkin for use in the John Wayne movies “The Alamo’’ and “Rio Bravo.” The music, along with the images of the battle and its aftermath, combine to leave a lasting impression of the violence that occurred that dark day in March 1836.

The trumpet shall sound
And the dead shall be raised
Incorruptible!
My son, on his mother's side of the family, has an ancestor who fought in Santa Ana's Army at the Alamo. He was wounded there, and died of
his wounds a couple of months later.
So his mother tells me.
My great, great relative was fourteen years old and part of the runaway scrape from the Brenham area.
It was the greatest display of human courage (on both sides) in the history of warfare
God Bless Texas ❤️
Not sure about both sides. 200 for Texas against thousands with Santa Anna?
Good version of this classic song
God Bless Texas
What (actually) happened may be disputed for many years to come, what we CAN agree on is that the Texan Defenders held as long as they could and that they took a hell of a lot of Santa Anna's troops with them.
Bless your heart, fredy.
@Fredy Angel Cab Gómez
Depends on which accounts you choose to believe.
They took 600 mexican troops when Texas had about 200 soldiers
BUT ...it was one battle at the end. The USA won the war. And Texas as a country of it's own for I believe three years. Then It was brought into the Union.
@Henry Horner proof that you a racist bigoted POS
This was also in Rio bravo with John wayne
I am born and raised in San Antonio! I regret that I did not take note of what the ALAMO and the CENOTAPH represented. One of these days I will return to my hometown and find out!
Beautiful and authentic!
May God bless them all!
Thirteen bands playing this tune day and night for thirteen days on the last day the Alamo defenders made their peace with God and consigned their souls to Him they knew they were going to die but they would die as heroes for a cause
Scumbag mercenaries and slave owners. They all deserved to die.
what a horrifying battle that must've been. Knowing you were doomed all along
Not as horrifying as Japanese defenders being "barbequed" in their pillboxes via flamethrower.
(Not implying Too Much sympathy)
@@yeldarbarrow3172 yes. but THEY could've surrendered
the call to defend Texas carries on to this day
yeah now just from a different enemy
I am a Texan (San Antonio is my hometown).
The Alamo is a testament to the courage and pride of Texans who believe in freedom.
Thanks to the brave defenders who took a stand and gave no quarter in the battle for liberty.
They were just a bunch of filibusters
@@AlexVanChezlaw Obviously you are using a word, the meaning of which, you do not truly understand. Stupidity is a perfectly understandable state in which to find oneself. You cannot be blamed for being stupid. There is however no excuse for ignorance. Ignorance reveals itself in slothful knowledge sloppily obtained, and even more inadequately expressed.
@@wm.courtney9114 feeling like a big boy using those grown up words, eh fella? Truly you must have felt an adrenaline rush and I'll give it to you this time, it happens to those who can't keep their heads out of their asses. English isn't my first language as you can see and I couldn't remember that the word is freebooter so i just translated it from my native language to english. Excuse me for not knowing the correct word, i wasn't born knowing it all. Complain all you want about my spelling mistakes and wording, feel like a big man calling someone stupid all you want, it doesn't change the fact those man were freebooters.
@@wm.courtney9114 There is some pretty damning evidence that suggests a good number of Houston’s soldiers and the early leaders of the Texas Revolution were indeed filibusters working on behalf of the government of the United States
I have family from Texas and I’m proud of my roots but I gotta agree with Houston to an extent as brave as Travis and his men were, other than delaying Santa Anna for 2 weeks all that was accomplished was Houston losing the only experienced soldiers he had
Great video, Ron!
I hope to one day pay a visit to the Alamo and pay my respect for the fallen
It's a cool place to be. Get one of the images of overhead of the buildings to understand where you are standing. Guesstimating that about 3/4ths of the fort has been built over by modern structures. Phil Collins used to have a little museum of memorabilia nearby. San Felipe de Bexar is the heart of Texas. The Alamo de Valero is the Soul of Texas. The San Jacinto Battlegrounds is the Spirit of Texas.
Love this piece of music!
Richard, Thanks for listening. Every time I visit The Alamo, Goliad, and San Jacinto I am awed by the courage the Texians made so apparent. I sincerely hope that my recordings honor those brave souls. Again, thanks for listening. RL
@@TheLyricalTrumpeter Yes, they do, but I grew up with the Nelson Riddle version. Oops.
So many do not understand the fierceness of the Texas Army at San Jacinto. It is because of the fallen at Goliad and the Alamo - No Quarter - No Mercy. The defenders were Tejano and Anglo - young and old, even from other countries.
Yes mainly foreign born mercenaries fighting for money and the promise of land grants
To the 200 fallen defenders of the Alamo, you will never be forgotten.
SALUTE!!!
Mercenaries, slave owners and rebels they all deserved to die.
I forgot
@@jondon808 who cares
Nor will the 63 Mexican patriots who died on the Alamo battlefield ever be forgotten!

Jerry, Thanks for listening & watching. Yes, El DeGuello is a haunting melody, and ancient. It was first played by the Moors during the Crusades and later "borrowed" by the Spanish & finally made its way to Mexico.
Even where military suicide information existed, the causal relationship between the Civil War and suicide received little attention, even though Army
Surgeons arguably compiled some of the best statistics of the era. The Union Army maintained a fairly elaborate system requiring “the senior medical officer of each hospital, post, regiment or detachment, to make monthly, to the Medical Director, and quarterly to the Surgeon General a report of Sick and Wounded, of Deaths and of Discharges…” During the war years from 1861 through 1865, the Union Army reported on suicides. For the vast majority of these cases, the Army
Surgeon only listed the name, military unit, and cause of research
Well now pardner, he plays a mighty "mean trumpet"📯
Meraviglioso!
Haunting.
I'm Iowan but there 184 souls will be honored God rest there souls remember the alamo
So you honor slave owners and mercenaries, jajajaja The American way?
No I honor the men that died in the fight against an evil dictator slave will be freed in 20 years pri6

@@thehumbleiowanpotato7890 Alamo 1836, emancipation of slaves 1863, 27 more years of slave owning or half a lifetime expectancy at the time. Texas at the time was a part of Mexico the rebels were rebels and Santa Anna was several years away from being a dictator. The armed insurrection by gringo mercenaries on behalf of slave owners who refused to obey Mexican law or pay taxes to the Mexican government all deserved to die.
Read some real history, not Hollywood white wash, your honour is misplaced and not deserved by these people.
@@robertvictor3237 get over yourself
Tiomkin's contribution sounds like a lament for all those poor bastards after the battle.
the way that these comments are made you'd think that the Mexican army had no business there. the fact is that this was mexico not the us and mexico had the right to impose it's laws and rules. I could go on about other serious discrepancies but not. I'm proud to be a Texan of Mexican desert and a us navy Vietnam veteran.
I agree Santa Anna may have been a tyrannical bastard and a asshole but it was mexico he wasn't a foreign invader.
This is minimized it shouldn't be .if for no other reason than to keep the story straight .
So many gringos are completely closed minded, ignorant and bigoted. Thanks for your service.
And you are very lucky to be a documented Mexican unlike other veterans that were deported back to Mexico after their service.
Santa Anna’s thirteen bands played deguello for thirteen days and nights until it was all over
Great. Music this
There were no cowards at The Alamo
NEVER FORGET .
I am not a Texan but my heart glows with pride at these brave defenders
@Kratos Ghost You are truly ignorant. You don't even know the meaning of the words you misuse.
The whole Alamo hero worship thing is such a crock of shit.
@Fredy Angel Cab Gómez
You already said this.
I live in San Diego CA. Born in Juarez believe me they teach you different but once you get deep into history. You awaken. Seen the truth. Texas is a great state and has a great governor hopefully he'll run for president if Trump don't! May be even DeSantis from Florida..

Si lugar donde se comenso el despojo y la invasion...
As a native Texan, It will always be the thirteen days of glory of the heroes of the Alamo.
Yes it was a dark day but a great day. These heroic souls became America's Spartans. They showed that free men would rather die than live on their knees. They made the ultimate sacrifice that bought Sam Houston time to gather an army that would ultimately defeat the tyrant Santa Anna. They did not die in vein. They bleed the Mexicans of large numbers of their best troops and made Houston's victory at San Jacinto decisive and total. "Let the old men tell the story of the siege of Alamo."
Hahaha your historical knowledge is laughable
@@robertvictor3237 and yours imagined
@@cowboyedbarry4726 cowboy ? Really? Haha sad
@@robertvictor3237 you sound like a sore loser. Ha ha
@Kratos Ghost no time to cry ... too busy laughing at you.
Heroes all! Salute
The last movie I saw on The Alamo had the Commander Travis saying Deguello meant, " slit throat". But the description I read back then says it more accurately describes the action of, " to slit the throat". In other words, to give no quarter.
Cool
A lot of Brave Men on both sides died that last day. REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!!!
What's this "on both sides" crap...
Ricordati di Alamo!
Wow. This makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck.
Are you like 7 years old?
RIP
I hope Texans always remember the Alamo.

The Trumpet song is called the cut throat Song.
No, it actually meant give no quarter, take no quarter.

Wow da kann aber einer schön Trompete spielen😊
God bless those poor Mexican souls

Yes ..if you research ..you will find many poor Mexicans and Yucatan boys were conscripted to march 1500 hundred miles ..in rags ..worn out sandals ..in the snow ..many died on their " trail of tears"...gotdam SantaAnna
@@claytonlowry1280 Yes.

Where are the bullet holes?
In the heroes
The chapel was inside the walls of the compound, not on the outer perimeter. All that is left of the compound, walls and surrounding buildings are the Long Barracks and the Chapel.
Honor Alamo mens..🌹🌹😔
No quarter was called for and so the Texian defenders gave none, fighting to the last man and taking half of Santa Ana’s forces with them.
9 defenders left the wall early in the fighting and told off of were 50 weapons were hidden in the town. Additionally, over 100 left the walls when it became apparent that all was lost leaving about 70-80 behind that stayed inside.
@@mariosalas9040 liar!

@@darthconker I mean Sam Houston and his men routed Santa Anna within under 18 or so minutes
@@mariosalas9040 Don't be a sore loser.. Don't mess with Texas, pendejo.
I know there’s a lot of legends surrounding this song being played at the time Santa Ana launched his attack on march 6th. My question as a historian in training is do we have proof they actually played this at all? Everything I’ve read on the deguello says that it was a cavalry march but the Alamo was an all infantry assault
Lucas, thanks for your comments and question. According to the Texas State Historical Assn., El Deguello was played at the Alamo by Santa Ana's military band. There are other sources that also state that it was played. Certainly I was not present to have personally heard the tune played, but authoritative researchers have followed evidence, leading them to the same conclusion. All the best to you, and I hope you will continue listening to my music videos. Ron Lawrence

The Texas rebellion was about stealing land from Mexico and owning slaves which had been outlawed in the Mexican constitution. The slave owning scum all deserved death.
Are you like 9 years old?
@@robertvictor3237 keep crying Mexico lost lmao, and also only a small number of Texans owned slaves, so no it wasn't about slavery 😂😂😂
@@nope6908 Are you uneducated? Or are you in a state of denial of course it was about stealing land to put slaves to work on, and yes not all Texans owned slaves because a lot of them worked for the slave owners as wage earners rather than as property. Fool educate yourself.
@@robertvictor3237 Let me guess you took Mexican history because no it wasn't and only Mexican say this because they’re so butthurt about the loss, plus they invited immigrants because they couldn’t handle the Native American tribes who kept kicking their asses 😂, so it was just colonizers versus colonizers and don’t pull the “Mexicans are indigenous” card because they ain't indigenous to the SouthWest, that’s Comanche, Apaches, and even indigenous tribes, on the border don't claim Mexican Heritage and hate both sides
American heroes! Rip Salute!

Y no lo es hoy como resultado del mayor robo hecho por los Estados Unidos, en el tratado de Dolores Hidalgo.

Santa Anna had thirteen bands that played deguello day and night until the final day the next to last day and night when the Alamo defenders knew no help was coming they made their peace with Gid and asked him to take their souls they died like men
The report of Mexican dead is reported at very different levels. What is best report ? Have even read at the battle of San Jacinto the poor showing of Mexican was due to losses from Alamo.
It's always going to be somewhere in the middle between what the two sides of a battle reported about each other's losses.
Honestly, the damage sustained to Santa Anna's army had little to do with his Army's defeat. Sam Houston outsmarted him and wore his army down. By the time the battle of San Jacinto was fought, his army was exhausted, split, and devoid of heavy artillery pieces which had been abandoned in order to keep up with the Texan Army. The importance of the Alamo is less so about enemy casualties and more so about the time took taking it.
@@callsignmaui6565 I would also say it caused the Texans to fight a no quaters battle at San jacinto.
That battle--and entire "war," for that matter--was about preserving slavery in Texas.
100% correct
Only TEXAS flag. TEXAS is not USA. TEXAS Free is a Republic.

I love the history of the alamo they fought valiantly to the very end and killed 1,650 Mexican soldiers America will honor their sacrifice God rest there souls
But they weren't fighting for America, they were mercenaries fighting for money and the promise of land grants. Do they not teach you anything in school or just b.s. ?
You believe what ever you want but I belive thay had to make a sacrifice if they were just fighting for land grants they wouldn't have died for it
And do they teach you honor sacrifice I think not and if you can't be grateful to our fallen men then just keep it to yourself
@@thehumbleiowanpotato7890 Texas was a rebellion against the rightful Mexican owners of the land, nothing to do with the USA at the start. You are the sort of ignorant stooge that thinks Hawaiian people willingly chose to be a part of the USA.
@@robertvictor3237 Do you know what empesario means? Empiezar, a starter of a LEGAL colony in Texas, or then Cojuella Y Tejas. The European and American legal immigrants were the rightful owners. Your supposed Mexican friends invited them in. Oh and Santa Ana was a egomaniac dictator who threw out the Mexican Constitution of 1821. That was also opposed by brown people Texians you should love like Juan Seguin. Mexico has had more Constitutions than you have had original thoughts.
Santa Ana lost Texas and all of then Northern Mexico by being a fool. People you don't like are also the rightful owners of that too and there's nothing you can do about it. Have a nice day.
I think it’s time for Texas to become its own country.
It was a country I believe for three years!. It's in the American history. GOD bless Texas and America.

Those flags are improperly displayed.
The Texas Flag is to be flown at equal heights as the American Flag.
As far as I’m concerned, if you are not equipped to fly it correctly, don’t raise it!
An incorrectly flown flag IS a sign of distress!
Thanks for the comment. Check out Governor Abbot's web site. The American flag is above the Texas flag there. Not sure but the Texas flag CAN be equal height with American flag, but not required . I used the Governor's example. Thanks for your input. If both flags are flown on the same staff it is required that the American flag be above the Texas flag.

The Mexican government was opposed to slavery, but even so, there were 5000 slaves in Texas by the time of the Texas Revolution in 1836. By the time of annexation a decade later, there were 30,000; by 1860, the census found 182,566 slaves -- over 30% of the total population of the state.
You have apparently never heard of the "peon" system of labor management.
@@carlcrisp8700 Your assumptions are incorrect. Minimum wage workers in the US and elsewhere are still wage slaves.

You lost it fair and square. Get over it.
That 1960 John Wayne movie was pure fiction and made for Hollywood. The movie is full of baloney and almost a comedy except for the pretty music.
There is always a big difference between Hollywood products and real history. Obviously Hollywood is meant to correct what had gone wrong in American history.
Nearly all Hollywood 'history' is complete propaganda.
Agreed. The 2004 movie is way better, and yet it failed horribly in the box office.
