"America The Beautiful" is one of the most beautiful patriotic songs ever written and may be considered our nation's favorite song. The melody is simple but yet so majestic. It is one of those songs that exuberates pride for our country. I have included two different versions of the song in this publication. Each is unique and different and will have varying uses for different kinds of performances. Version 1 is the shortest of the two arrangements. It is more traditional in style and straight forward. Version 2, on the other hand, is almost twice as long and totally different. This arrangement is more majestic in style, has an introduction, modulations and incorporates interludes between each of the four times you hear the melody.

The arrangement is very melodic, brimming with beautiful harmonies, rhythmically easy and not difficult to master. There are two exact versions in different keys in this single publication; the first in "Bb" major and the secon in "C" Major. Some of the fingering combinations on the low notes are not as difficult when using the version in "C" Major, which will make the arrangement more assessable with younger players.
