How to play The Star Spangled Banner on the Trumpet

The Star Spangled Banner, known here in the United States as our national anthem, was written by John Stafford Smith with lyrics by Francis Scott Key. The tune has traditionally been a featured opening segment of sporting events throughout the country and has been performed by many great trumpeters during nationally televised games. I enjoy performances by Dr. Jesse McGuire, Arturo Sandoval, and Herb Alpert.
