Battle Hymn of the Republic—William Steffe/
arr. Russell Robinson.
The Wilhousky setting of
this 19th century hymn is possibly the most heartfelt
musical pronouncement of American patriotism.
Divisi sections in all parts are accessible and still
richly expressive with harmonic colors and sweeping
dynamic contrasts. Emotional and highly effective, it
is a truly magnificent setting that may be performed
with band or orchestral accompaniment. It's also the
one chosen most often by U.S. military ensembles.

Blades of Grass and Pure White Stones—
arr. Keith Christopher.
"Blades of grass and pure
white stone shelter those who've come and gone.
Just below the em'rald sod are boys who've reached
the arms of God. Buried here with dignity, endless
rows for all to see. Freedom's seeds in sorrow sown,
'neath blades of grass and pure white stones." The
text alone is compelling in its own right, but when the
lyrical folksong quality of the vocal lines is added, the
piece becomes something of its own. Great music
and a great message will make this work of favorite
for years to come!

arr. Jay Althouse.
The national anthem belongs
in the library of every choir, sacred or secular, as
