Hurrah for the Union!

We hear some well-known standards such as the “Battle Cry of Freedom,” an interesting arrangement by the 3^rd New Hampshire Regiment Band (circa 1760’s) of the “Star-Spangled Banner,” “Yankee Doodle,” “Dixie’s Land” (known as “Dixie”), and “Hail to the Chief.” There are 21 works represented in total and they combine to show a rich repertoire from the American tradition.
