National Anthem...

I am looking for an arrangement of the National Anthem written for three or four trumpets. Not necessarily looking for a freebie, but it would be really great if it could be delivered in a pdf.

Thanks for any assistance you can offer!

Bill

Here's an exotic arrangement for four trumpets by Edward Cumming, posted on Jay Lichtmann's site:

Try this:

This is a transcription of an arrangement made by the gospel a cappella group: "The Gaither Vocal Band."

I transcribed it for a trumpet studio recital at The Hartt School in March of 2016. The students liked the transcription and it was well received.

If you play it, please let me know how it goes.

Thank you dstdenis and Jay! We have a local collegiate summer baseball league, and they play a good number of home games. My quintet has played two, plus playing with another quintet, but vacations intrude and we can't pick up any more. I do know that we can put together a quartet of trumpets, hence my request.

I will definitely keep you posted!

Thanks again for your help,

Bill
