America

Intended for intermediate to professional concert bands, this unique setting of this patriotic standard is perfect for honoring the United States of America and members of the Armed Forces.  Not a typical setting, many liberties are taken to showcase each instrument of the ensemble with the melodic focus constantly shifting.  As this short fanfare-like composition progresses, the mood shifts from unsettled to triumphant.  Feature this as a thought-provoking moment in your concerts.
