TRIBUTE TO AMERICA (Solo Piano)
Shawnee Press, Inc.
HB0259
2002
Book sale: 20% off (see new price) This
moving arrangement of two well-loved patriotic songs begins with a
reflective section of newly composed material, setting up a mood of
quiet introspection. "My Country, 'Tis of Thee" is then introduced in a
simple, expressive manner featuring lush chords and alternate
harmonies. It then moves seamlessly into "The Star-Spangled Banner,"
continuing the same tone of reverence and awe. This builds, modulating
from a Bb to Db, while painting a musical picture of the valiant battle
that is being fought while the flag still waves; then moves into a
stirring climax in a masterful orchestral-like fashion. Suitable for
intermediate and moderately-advanced pianists alike, and is appropriate
year-round or for patriotic events.
