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.
