This one may already have been mentioned, but I want to recommend a site which features the music of my good friend Bobby Horton. Bobby has been collecting authentic music from the War Between the States for many years, and was one of the musicians who worked on the Burns series. A couple of years ago I worked with Bobby on a one-hour documentary for ETV called --Music and Memories of The Civil War--which is available, along with other classroom teaching materials, at the site. Bobby also has some really fine cassettes and cds (ten or so) featuring authentic music of the period, including spiritual songs and Christmas music. Check out the site: http://bizweb.lightspeed.net/~cwms/
