Honor America with this new patriotic arrangement of one of our most beloved traditional melodies, now arranged for second-year (or easy third-year) string orchestra. Set in the key of G major and staying in first position throughout, occasional meter changes from three-four to four-four will keep your young players on their toes. This arrangement provides cues in the cello for orchestras that don't have string bass available, optional 3rd violin parts for groups lacking violas, and a rehearsal piano part (not intended for performance).
