By Various. By John Stafford Smith. Arranged by Vanessa Klassen. Patriotic. 12 pages. Vanessa Klassen #735658. Published by Vanessa Klassen (A0.1135603).
British composer John Stafford Smith is best known for composing The Anacreontic Song around 1773 for a men’s social club in London. The tune was later used for The Star-Spangled Banner. The lyrics come from a poem written by Francis Scott Key following the War of 1812. Key witnessed the bombardment of Fort McHenry by British ships of the Royal Navy during the Battle of Baltimore. He was inspired by the large flag with 15 stars and 15 stripes (The Star-Spangled Banner) which triumphantly flew above the fort following the U. S. victory. The song became a well-known patriotic song in the United States and was officially adopted as the country’s national anthem in 1931. This clarinet choir arrangement includes parts for E♭ clarinet, three B♭ clarinets, bass clarinet, and contrabass clarinet. This version can also be played as a quartet if the E♭ and contra parts are omitted.
