Publisher's Synopsis
Mix and match with other string, woodwind and brass editions of "Thirty Famous Patriotic Duets" to create mixed ensembles of different instruments.The choice of keys was determined by our desire to make this book compatible with the woodwind and brass books. Therefore, some of the songs are in flat keys that might be too challenging for the younger string player. For all songs that have two or more flats in the key signature, we included a second version in a more string friendly key in the back of the book. If you mix and match violin, viola, and cello, you may wish to use the sharp keys in the back for a mixed string group.Selections include Amazing Grace, My Country Tis of Thee, America the Beautiful, American Patrol, Anchors Aweigh, Battle Cry of Freedom, The Battle Hymn of the Republic, Bugle Calls, Bunker Hill, Cassions Go Rolling Along, Chester, Columbia, The Gem of the Ocean, Darling Nelly Gray, Dixie, Eternal Father, Strong to Save, Faith of Our Fathers, Hail, Columbia, Hail to the Chief, Liberty Song, The Marine's Hymn, The Maryland, Maryland Oh! Susanna, Over There, Star Spangled Banner, The Stars and Stripes Forever, There'll Be a Hot Time, When Johnny Comes Marching Home, Yankee Doodle, Yankee Doodle Boy, Yellow Rose of Texas, and You're a Grand Old Flag.
