Wonderful performance of a classic piece. Great job and thanks!

"America the Beautiful" is an American patriotic song. The lyrics were written by Katharine Lee Bates and the music composed by church organist and choirmaster Samuel A. Ward. In 1893, at the age of thirty-three, Bates, an English professor at Wellesley College, had taken a train trip to Colorado Springs. Several of the sights on her trip inspired her, and they found their way into her poem. The majestic view of the Great Plains from high atop Zebulon's Pikes Peak inspired the text.

Beautiful trumpet! Great use of piano with organ. Powerful ending .... and the people loved it .... if you listen carefully you can faintly hear voices in the background.
