Due to its growing popularity, the NAACP declared it the Negro National Anthem, in 1919, long before The Star Spangled Banner was officially adopted as the national anthem of the United States. This beloved anthem is a history lesson, a pledge of unity and rallying cry for equality and justice in our nation.

During World War II, Norman Rockwell painted four images that helped define our nation’s values. He was inspired by President Franklin Roosevelt’s 1941 speech to Congress. Rockwell wanted to “take the Four Freedoms out of their noble language and put them in terms everybody can understand. I’ll express the ideas in simple everyday scenes”, he said. In an effort to capture the ideas and intentions of Rockwell and Roosevelt through music, the composer carefully drew upon common songs that are deeply rooted in our American heritage so that the audience and performers can relate to their message.

The Four Freedoms

The "Glorious familiar song of old" from 1850 reflects the poem
  to which it was set through this delicate peaceful depiction of the
  "solemn stillness" over our "weary world". Carefully
  crafted in 3/4 time, it allows young musicians to play this beautiful carol
  (originally set in 6/8 time) and sound more mature than its easy level with
  very moderate ranges. The soothing sonority will help capture the heart of
  the season! Also available for Flex Ensemble.

  chorus.  The fading conclusion conjures
  images of a lone cowboy riding off into the sunset.  Your students and audience alike should
  enjoy the musical imagery created in this unique Jazz composition.
