The Star Spangled Banner

(Service Version)

I have not been able to find a good recording on YouTube of this most basic arrangement. I've linked the closes I could find at left. However, the chorus sings unison until "The rocket's red glare." We will sing four parts for the whole thing. We will only be singing the first verse.

Here are some part recordings I made for you:

Soprano - You don't get a part recording. I can't sing a high F well, and it's the meoldy, you should know that. :-)

Sisi Ni Moja

Here are the recordings of Sisi Ni Moja. Please note the recording to the left has the word "Moja" mispronounced. It should be sung with a hard "J". Part recordings are below.
