Composed as a tribute to generations of American servicemen and women buried at Arlington National Cemetery near Washington D.C. this powerful and emotional work is a fitting addition to any memorial occasion or concert.Offstage trumpets announce the opening theme following by reverent strains and a solemn statement of My Country 'Tis of Thee. The piece develops and builds gradually reaching a heroic climax with the familiar hymn Godof Our Fathers before returning to a quiet and reflective mood as the offstage trumpets return.
