Review:
Finally! The missing piece for Armed Service tributes and patriotic concerts: Semper Paratus (Always Ready) – the U.S. Coast Guard marching song. Skillfully arranged to honor this branch of the armed service, Semper Paratus features a fully orchestrated Level 3 score on 3-7 oct. handbells, with options for 1 or 3 octaves of chimes plus optional scores for countermelody on belltree, C instrument or alternate bell set. An excellent choice for festivals, concerts, school programs and patriotic or military presentations. 76 measures. Numerous key changes: Gb Major, Ab Major, Eb Major, Bb Major, Eb Major (again), C Major, and F Major.
