The New ANZACs

Description

Brian Hogg (arr. Ralph Hultgren)

Written to capture the spirit and determination of the ‘ordinary’ men
who became part of the ANZAC legend, in a contemporary world, The NEW
ANZACS extends to represent the contribution of all of those who have
fought and died in conflicts since WWI. Perceptions of the legend may
have altered over the years, but it remains a focus for generations of
young Australian and New Zealanders. The music begins with a familiar
motif and concludes with the hymn ST ANN: ‘O God our help in the ages
past’.
