National Anthem of the USA: The Star-Spangled Banner
“The Star-Spangled Banner“ is the national anthem of the United States. The lyrics come from “Defence of Fort McHenry“, a poem written on September 14, 1814, by the then 35-year-old lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key after witnessing the bombardment of Fort McHenry by British ships of the Royal Navy in Baltimore Harbor during the Battle of Baltimore in the War of 1812.

Set to Key’s poem and renamed “The Star-Spangled Banner“, it soon became a well-known U.S. patriotic song. With a range of 19 semitones, it is known for
