Theodore's Anthem - Kerry Turner

Changing gears a bit. Presenting the French Horn section of the U.S. Army Field Band, with piano and percussion. This is the most phenomenal horn playing I have heard in a long time.

Theodore's Anthem: A Cavalcade for Five Horns and Band by Kerry Turner (2015). Reduced for Recital Format with six horns, piano, and percussion. Commissioned by The United States Army Field Band.
Theodore's Anthem is a portrait of Theodore Roosevelt's colorful and inspiring life, reflecting his love of the American landscape, his determination to overcome his own physical challenges as a sickly boy, and culminating with the victorious charge of his Rough Riders at the Battle of San Juan Hill. The piece is a Fanfare and Chorale-Processional featuring the horn section, with rambunctious runs and soaring melodies, at times daring, but also a bit nostalgic.
