Composed by Francis Scott Key and John Stafford Smith. Arranged by D. Music Scores. This edition: pdf. Patriotic, Traditional. Individual part. 1 pages. D. M. Scores #1211178. Published by D. M. Scores (A0.1643999).This is an instrumental arrangement for viola of the American anthem "The Star-Spangled Banner." Its melody is based on a popular British song composed by John Stafford Smith (1750-1836), a British composer. The lyrics, written by American lawyer Francis Scott Key (1779-1843), are a poem composed in 1814. The combination of a British melody with Key's poem resulted in "The Star-Spangled Banner," which quickly became a patriotic song in the United States.
The arrangement presented here features the melody for the viola, along with accompanying chords. It is written in the key of G major.
