America, the Land of Liberty celebrates immigration, freedom, and liberty in America.
Verses from the poem on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty, “Give me your tired, your poor… are set to music and then combined with My Country ‘Tis of Thee and Home on the Range. This piece of music weaves in a fresh new setting of the timeless poetry of Emma Lazarus along with patriotic music and a classic folk song, giving a sense of the contemporary and traditional importance of American immigration.
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
- From “The New Colossus by Emma Lazarus.
