Review:
NATIONAL HYMN, BATTLE HYMN, and MATERNA are the three hymn tunes that make up this medley. Optional chimes are scored in the melody line in the second section and accompanied by echoed chords and make a nice contrast to the other sections. This powerful, exhilarating medley will sound great at a 4th of July service or at any patriotic time. 85 measures in length, it is arranged in C Major, F Major, and Ab Major.
