"My country, 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty..." The familiar words of America are set to a sweeping new melody, which leads to a stirring original chorus. Then, a fully harmonized refrain of America the Beautiful enters as the work nears its grand finish. Especially effective as a concert closer, this accessible piece is a strong choice for any patriotic occasion! "Let freedom ring in our hearts, let love abide. Of thee I sing, let freedom ring."
