Product Description
A super and bubbly arrangement for Saxophone Quintet of the Battle Hymn of the Republic.
Julia Ward Howe was inspired to write "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" after she and her husband visited Washington, D. C., and met Abraham Lincoln at the White House in November 1861. During the trip, her friend James Freeman Clarke suggested she write new words to the song "John Browns Body", which she did on November 19. The song was set to William Steffes already-existing music and Howes version was first published in the Atlantic Monthly in February 1862. It quickly became one of the most popular songs of the Union during the American Civil War.
