Write a reviewFavorite American Medley!!
By Sarah Kay Bierle
I love this arrangement of the patriotic classics "My Country 'Tis of Thee" and "America the Beautiful"! The melody stands out boldly and the accompaniment flows really well. I enjoy doing patriotic themed performances for living history events and around Fourth of July, Memorial Day, or Veteran's Day. This is usually the song I choose to end those performances. A lovely arrangement of American Classics!
Pure Americana

This arrangement of two favorites is a joy to play. It is smooth and flows naturally. Sylvia's arrangements always give a wonderful background to the music. A nice touch. I played it along with Sylvia's arrangement of "The Star Spangled Banner" and inserted a figure eight glissando between the two arrangements.
