Battle Hymn of the Republic—
arr. Peter Wilhousky. 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!
