Why another
arrangement of The
Star-Spangled Banner?
While watching a TV
sports show, Dr. Bullock
was dismayed after
hearing a particularly
poor performance flawed
with wrong lyrics and the
incorporation of personal
musical phrases
intertwined with the
traditional melody. So,
don't just play your
marching band version in
a concert setting, but
rather program this
tasteful reverent
rendition which is
certain to be moving in
your concert
environment.
