Few songs in the rich heritage of American patriotic music are as widely known and sung in America. Here, the words of Samuel Francis Smith are set to a new melody that is sturdy yet lyrical, fresh yet familiar. Interspersedthroughout are instrumental flourishes [in the piano] that lend strength and fanfare. The final verse gives way to the traditional tune, but in duple time and with a new harmonization.
