O, FOR HISTORY: Music for Independence Day

Posted on July 4, 2019 by Wright Flyer Guy

Independence Day, July 4th, 2019.

Three legendary musical pieces are always at the top of my favorites:

I first heard the Wilhousky arrangement of “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” at The Elwood High School Variety Shows in the late 1960s, and eventually performed and conducted this lush, haunting score numerous times.

Happy Independence Day!
