Broad Stripes and Bright Stars Fantasy on Early American Airs Concert Band - Sheet Music
A dramatic and inspiring patriotic composition which contains fresh musical treatments of "Yankee Doodle", "Johnny Has Gone For A Soldier", "America" and a full symphonic treatment of "The Star-Spangled Banner". A great concert opener or closer, and is suitable for any patriotic or civic occasion. ("The Star-Spangled Banner" can be played alone, with or without audience participation.) Challenging, but amazingly playable for a piece that sounds so spectacular and impressive! All sections of the band get several chances to shine and it's a full-blown extravaganza that is perfect for a zillion programming situations. Very impressive!
