So, it looks like a song I wrote and recorded and then forgot about is about to be on national TV! Yay for the internets.
The song, Battle Hymn of the Republic, is an arrangement of a classic abolitionist hymn by Julia Ward Howe. A short section of the song will be used in Christiane Amanpour two part series, Back to the Beginning. Also, this show is the #1 show on Friday nights. That’s nice too.
This song was mixed by the very talented Pedro Costa.
Pedro and I also created ANOTHER adaptation of a public domain song called Joshua Won the Battle of Jericho, which unfortunately we can’t post. But, you CAN hear it on Friday night ABC, 8/9.
wow, i was somewhat watching CNN (Amanpour) and fell asleep in and out during the program (i was tired)… however, near the end, as i was waking up, i heard the beginning of this song and i was immediately inthralled! in the next 2-3 hours i tried searching for this song but couldn’t find it. it has been nearly a week now and the song keep bugging me in my head…. well, i just decided to try my luck again this past hour and voila! found it. thanks!
I’m always happy when music I make impacts someone (anyone) enough to make them LOOK for it. 🙂
Thank you for the kind words. I’m glad a sleepy, quiet song could wake you up and move you. 🙂
Enjoy!
