This narrative setting of Lincoln's immortal Gettysburg Address was commissioned by the United States President's Own Marine Band in early 2009. As beautiful as the speech is on paper, the best way to appreciate Lincoln's musical instinct for timbre, phrasing, and rhythmic patterns is through recitation---and American composer Randol Alan Bass has created a unique musical opportunity for us to do that. (4:05).

To be performed with or without a narrator, this work contains musical fragments from three civil war songs, including the Battle Cry of Freedom, Dixie, and Battle Hymn of the Republic. Scored for beginners, the use of the narration will certainly enhance this patriotic setting. (3:00).
