"Can we please go back to just the notes Stafford Smith wrote? "
Amen.
Ever since that really good female singer did the 'fourth' jump during the word "free" about 15 years ago (Sandy Smith?), it seems that they all have to do it. At this Inauguration singing of the national anthem, the woman singer was great, excellent, and I said to myself "please don't do it". She held the note for a while, and then did the fourth. "Damn!" I said, not in a good way.
A few top trumpet players who have performed the Star Spangled Banner at major football games in the past are Arturo Sandoval, Maynard Ferguson, and Al Hirt. I don't know, but I would guess that Doc Severinsen also has.
