This extremely popular patriotic song makes a return in a small band arrangement. This ballad treatment is reminiscent of Neal Hefti's classic arrangements for the Count Basie Orchestra. The features include a moderate lead trumpet range, a fully-notated bass part, and an ample 16-bar blues form. The solo opportunities are in both the tenor sax and optional guitar parts contributing to its accessibility. Flugelhorns are optional and muted shadings add to the orchestration's color. From a rousing shout chorus emerges a reflective conclusion. With a few improvised solo choruses, Battle Hymn of the Republic weighs in at five to six minutes. Scored for one each ATB Saxes, 2 Trumpets, 1 Trombone, Piano, Bass, Drums and optional Guitar. The trumpet ranges goes to A5.
