Let Freedom Sing is a patriotic celebration produced by Arts Express in recognition of America, the continued hope for world peace and those who have served to protect our freedom. The annual performance takes place in conjunction with the July 4th holiday. Each year, American favorites such as The Star Spangled Banner, America the Beautiful and The Battle Hymn of the Republic are performed by the Arts Express Choir and Orchestra along with selections by such notable American composers as John Phillip Sousa and Irving Berlin. Various patriotic themes are explored, showcasing the vast depth of talent in Arts Express, as well as guest artists from the Tucson Community. Over two hundred singers, instrumentalists and other cast members take center stage to celebrate America’s independence.

Talk of the Town…

Arts Express is the quintessential non-profit organization. Since its foundation, I have been blessed to receive the benefits of its mission not only in Tucson, but across the world. Shortly after July 4th, 2010, while serving in Afghanistan, I received a DVD of Let Freedom Sing recognizing my unit and all the service members serving abroad. – AE Army

Its amazing to me that without Arts Express’s performance of “Let Freedom Sing”, Tucson would have no special program, other than fireworks, celebrating the 4th of July. I look  forward to this program each year and try to bring a veteran along with me.    - eagleon9

My wife and I are 90 years old. We attended the Let Freedom Sing performance last July. It made us proud to be Americans. It was the first time I have been recognized as serving in the armed forces for a long, long time. Thank you Arts Express for making me feel appreciated!  – Ol’ Grandpa

It gives me such joy to see so many happy faces waving flags and appreciating the patriotic music. Children are always involved as they carry the flags. What a valuable heritage we are passing on to the younger generation. We are a part of the most wonderful country on earth and this is truly a time to honor our heroes, both in the military and in our community.     – ginny
