Yes, the National Anthem is a very difficult song to sing, but since she is a "professional" singer more is expected of her. If you are unaware that there are instructions set forth by Congress when The Star Spangled Banner was adopted officially as our National Anthem in 1934, you can find them at the MENC, Music Educator's National Conference, or at the site called The National Anthem Project.



The National Anthem is not to be sung in any other style but a straight style and in key. A soloist is to act more as a leader for the anthem, than as a solo performer. When a soloist sings this song it should not be sung in a way that says, "Hey LOOK AT ME!"
