A Cappella,Graduation,Holiday,Instructional,Patriotic. Octavo. 2 pages. Sylvia Chapa #4632785. Published by Sylvia Chapa (A0.827772). An easy 3-part SAB Choir arrangement of The Star Spangled Banner, the US National Anthem, this was originally created for a high school choir with limited music reading capabilities. It may be sung a cappella or with the keyboard accompaniment. The accompaniment supports and doubles the parts often, and is helpful in the beginning stages of teaching the song. It could be played by a high school pianist or on a church organ. It may also be sung as a solo if following the highest notes in the treble clef (melody). This is in the Medium Low Key of Ab, so if you have that soprano, go for it! The MP3 recorded sounds are computer generated voices and piano in the key of Ab. Note that it is also available in the lower key of G, and higher keys of A, and Bb. The optional high note is then G, A, or Bb. Suitable for a vocal solo at a ball game, Memorial Day programs/church if allowed, Fourth of July, Veteran's Day, Patriots Day, and any patriotic observance in the US.
