Review:
Two patriotic favorites, "America, the Beautiful" and "The Battle Hymn of the Republic", make up this Level 2 collection for five ringers (B4 – D6). "America, the Beautiful" is nice on chimes or bells; the key of B-flat makes it possible for the audience to hum or sing along if desired. "The Battle Hymn of the Republic", also in the key of B-flat, uses chimes in the middle section.
