Trans-America March, composed in classic style, is inspired by the westward development of the United States of America. Beginning with a quote from the opening phrase of The Star Spangled Banner, we are taken on a journey westward across the great divide. The first strain ascends melodically to the peak in center of the phrase. The melody then descends to the other side of the great divide representing the journey across the country from sea to shining sea. The trio is based on “America, My Country Tis Of Thee,” leading to a rousing conclusion. Perfect for patriotic programming or in any concert/festival setting, “Trans-America March” is a wonderful choice for your next performance. Duration: 2.00
