Description:
No one writes more exquisitely patriotic music than James L. Hosay, the former head arranger for 'Pershing's Own' United States Army Band in Washington D. C. Dedicated to the memory of Mr. Hosay's mentor, Dr. Sydney Berg, this moving symphonic setting of THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER is a rich and compelling way to bring a your concert to a close. Of course it works equally well anywhere the National Anthem would be appropriate for performance. The unusual 4/4 meter setting with artfully crafted reharmonizations and lush counterpoint gives each listener cause to reflect on the importance and meaning of this melody to patriotic Americans everywhere. Inspired!
