In military tradition, the Last Post is the bugle call that signifies the end of the day's activities. It is also sounded at military funerals to indicate that the soldier has gone to his final rest and at commemorative services such as ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day.

This 1 and a 1/2 minute version is done on a violin by Rachel Bostock and is very moving.
