America’sSoundtrack

 

America’s Soundtrack is a nationwide celebration of the music that tells our story. As part of the broader commemoration leading up to America’s 250th anniversary, this initiative invites Americans to reflect on the songs that have shaped our shared history — anthems that have united us in moments of triumph, comforted us in times of challenge, and defined generations. From timeless classics to contemporary hits, America’s Soundtrack honors the artists, genres, and cultural movements that form the living, breathing soundtrack of our nation.

First Three Tracks Now Available!

Our initial release includes three tracks with distinct works reflecting the breadth of the American musical tradition:

  • America,” by Gloria and Emilio Estefan, now available widely for the first time
  • American Promise,” a newly commissioned orchestral work by composer Karen LeFrak
  • Battle Hymn of the Republic,” in a powerful rendition performed by The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square

 

 

More artists and tracks will be added to America’s Soundtrack throughout 2026.
