Daniel Emmett composed the words and music of "Dixie", but it was Herman Arnold of Montgomery, Ala., who, in 1860, wrote the original band score from the music score that Emmett wrote upon the wall of the old Montgomery Theatre with a piece of charcoal, as he did not have a copy of the music to give to Mr. Arnold. This original band score is preserved in the Alabama State Department of Archives and History.
