The Star Spangled Banner
- Watch direction for holds
- Strong start, down to mf at start of anthem
- Keep up, steady “march” feel throughout
- As
in all songs, leave room for crescendos – don’t start so loud that there’s no
room to go
- Large crescendo on “was still there,” then big drop, then steady crescendo again, with peak at “free” (longest hold here – watch director).
