[It’s not Memorial Day or the Fourth of July, not even Labor Day fer crissakes, but it’s always a good time for a fresh take on our national anthem. SB SM]
And, lest we forget how bad our national anthem can be, here’s a reminder:
Thursday Tune: Star Spangled
I’ve been privileged to sing the Anthem to open the Tucson Festival of Books for the past several years. It’s not especially difficult to do it solo, since you can pick your key to keep it confined within your vocal range. It’s more of a challenge when you’re singing with a group in a key selected by someone else.
