The 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.

Kindgom of God."
