2. The Music
The musicians did play as the boat sank, they did not survive. The James Cameron adaptation of the film by the same name was often completely wrong on many of the facts of the ships sinking, but it did get this part right. Many of the survivors can remember the musicians playing until their final moments, giving some peace (hopefully) to those that were experiencing one of the most terrifying ways to meet their end. The musicians do not get enough credit for their heroics and bravery, but hopefully they will continue to be remembered.
