With inspiration from Aretha Franklin's version of her hit song, this arrangement captures the soulful essence in a marching band setting with a lyrical treatment of the melody, and a tempo that works on the field. The powerful chorus sounds out, and the piece concludes with a powerful and punctuated finality. Play it as a feature, or program it as part of an “Aretha Franklin” marching band show. Either way, your band and audience will enjoy the legendary song.
