Armed Forces - The Pride of America! Arranged by Larry Clark & Greg Gilpin Concert Band - Grade 3 (XPS13) Copyright 2006, 2017 Carl Fischer, LLC www.carlfischer.com www.larryclarkmusic.com
At my high school we had our Veterans Day program where we had 3 ensembles perform at the same time. Band, orchestra, and (ensemble I was in) choir. Even though the ensembles performed it a few months ago, it was still really really fun to do it and it makes me sad that I’m leaving as a senior this year.
It’s 2023, and we NEED to find a way of incorporating the Space Force into this medley. I was thinking about adding the first 8 bars of “The Washington Post” after Semper Paratus and leading into Semper Supra in the key of concert F. Also, a good alternate ending would be performing the other half of “America the Beautiful” after the Pledge of Allegiance at a stronger dynamic in place of the national anthem and transitioning perfectly to the fine without a change in the time signature. And please change the lyrics to the Army song; these go along with the Field Artillery March, of which the Army song is based. Here are the actual lyrics: First to fight for the right And to build the nation’s might, And the Army goes rolling along. Proud of all we have done Fighting ‘til the battle’s won And the Army goes rolling along. Then it’s Hi! Hi! Hey! The Army’s on it’s way! Count off the cadence, loud and strong! For where-e’er we go, You will always know That the Army goes rolling along!
@@generalhilt4531 I figured it out, My band teacher never went over 2/2 but I eventually looked it up myself. I thought at first it was in 4/4. And I play the xylophone part btw
@Nathan I'm currently playing a song where the time signatures change all the time. From measure 72 to measure 100 the signature changes from 2/4 to 3/4 to 4/4 back 2/4 all the way down. Messes me up counting. When we rehearse the measures I'm always a couple bars behind.
@@bruhmomentus3770 Found the name of the song at 3:06. The song is called "National Emblem" by Edwin Bagley in 1906. You said this song was made for only this.
