Hymn to the Fallen (from Saving Private Ryan)

Steven Spielberg's twenty year association with John Williams has produced yet another powerful cinematic achievement, this time a gripping, realistic view of the horrors of WW II. Williams' score includes this simple hymn, using chorus as an instrument of the orchestra, adding a special reverence and poignancy to the simple melody.  Arranger Paul Lavender brings us this edition for the concert band stage.
