Review:
This engaging medley of familiar U.S. Armed Forces songs (Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Air Force and Marines) will add a patriotic spirit to your next handbell program. Excerpts from “America, the Beautiful” form the introduction and ending of this arrangement. There are three easy key changes, while the tempo remains the same throughout the piece. 100 measures. Keys of C Major, F Major, and G Major.
