By United States Army. By John Philip Sousa. Arranged by Aaron Hettinga. Classical,Historic,March,Patriotic,Traditional. 9 pages. Aaron Hettinga #768155. Published by Aaron Hettinga (A0.1167803).

The official U.S. Army song, commonly known as “The Caissons Go Rolling Along� or “The Army Goes Rolling Along,� predates John Philip Sousa’s version by several years. In 1917, Sousa composed “The U.S. Field Artillery March� containing the Caisson Song’s melody as the basis for the march’s TRIO section.


This arrangement makes use of Sousa’s introduction, then remains faithful to his harmonic treatment and the flavors of the melody and accompaniments throughout. While each of the four parts do feature some small technical requirements, they remain at an intermediate level where even less-experienced players should be able to pull them off handily.


While originally scored here for SATB Saxophone quartet, a sub part to play the top line on Alto sax is also included.


This arrangement is a great vehicle to share some patriotic flair on your patriotic Saxophone quartet program!


Note: the live demo recording is made from a brass quintet version of this same basic arrangement.

America the Beautiful is an American patriotic song. The lyrics were written by Katharine Lee Bates, and the music was composed by church organist and choirmaster Samuel A. Ward at Grace Episcopal Church in Newark, New Jersey. The two never met. Bates originally wrote the words as a poem, Pikes Peak, first published in the Fourth of July edition of the church periodical The Congregationalist in 1895. At that time, the poem was titled America for publication. Ward had originally written the music, Materna, for the hymn O Mother dear, Jerusalem in 1882, though it was not first published until 1892. Ward's music combined with the Bates poem was first published in 1910 and titled America the Beautiful. The song is one of the most popular of the many U.S. patriotic songs. [Wikipedia]
