America The Beautiful—
arr. Arnold Sherman. Perform this exciting
arrangement with bells alone or add optional
organ, brass (Trumpet I and II, Horn, Trombone
I and II, tuba, percussion and Timpani). After a
16 measure introduction, the handbells usher
in the melody alone; and the other instruments
chime in accompaniment shortly thereafter. In
the second statement of the melody, the organ
gets a solo line and the bells provide a malleted
accompaniment. A few key changes (from G
Major to C Major to Ab Major) keep the listener
interested; the last melodic statement is broad
and stately with shaking at the end of the piece.
The arrangement is 88 measures.
