This fantasia is a set of well known American tunes arranged by Henry Round (Dec.) of Wright and Round Music Publishers. It is believed that this piece dates to around 1930. The songs in this piece are: Hustle an Bustle of New York, The Star Spangled Banner, Yankee Doodle, Buffalo Girls, My Maryland, My Maryland, The Vacant Chair, Camptown Races, In Dixie's Land, My Old Kentucky Home, We Are Coming Father Abra'am, The Battle Cry of Freedom, The Mocking Bird and Old Glory's Marching on. Several of these songs were used in Black and White Minstrel shows and as such this piece will likely never be performed by our band in the future.
