This past fall, I wrote a new arrangement of The Star Spangled Banner, which was premiered in October by the University of Central Florida Wind Ensemble, conducted by Chung Park. Listen (and see the score) here. The arrangement includes a few exciting harmonies and I hope you enjoy it!
Upcoming National Anthem Performances
My arrangement of the Star Spangled Banner, commissioned by the Idaho State Civic Symphony and conductor Chung Park a couple of years ago, will receive two performances this coming weekend: September 14, 2013 Lake Norman Orchestra Mooresville, NC Additional info here
September 14, 2013 Murray State University Symphony Orchestra Murray, KY Additional info here
Thanks to these ensembles for including my arrangement on their concert, and thanks to Chung Park and the Idaho State Civic Symphony for helping to create it!
Star Spangled Banner Arrangement at FMEA!
My good friend Chung Park called last night to tell me that the grade 9-10 Florida All-State Orchestra is going to start off their concert Saturday with my arrangement of the Star Spangled Banner! Chung is this year's Guest Conductor for the All-State Concert Orchestra (which is sure to be an awesome experience for those kids because Chung is an amazing, inspiring musician). If you are in Tampa Bay on Saturday, here are the details: When: Saturday January 14, 2012 - 2:00pm Where: Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center Room: Morsani Hall
You can find out more about the Florida All-State Conference here. And, here is the concert page with info on Chung.
If you are interested in the arrangement, contact me directly, as the music isn't available through my website (yet).
