From the Artist Mr. Trent Gardner writes: In the attempt to find an arranger to orchestrate America Our Country America Our Home, both Ron and Maryann Sfarzo met with Trent Gardner an outstanding musician, composer, arranger and recording artist. Trent spent many days and weeks listening to their CD demo. Trent listened and listened but could not come up with any musical thoughts that would excite him. One morning, Trent heard the full arrangement in his head and went into arranging it as heard in "The Production". Here is a written statement from Trent explaining his feeling about "America Our Country America Our Home": I love how memories work on the creative mind. One of my favorites is of my father, taking me to my first pro baseball game. He was the only guy in the crowd singing the national anthem at the top of his voice. As a nine year old attempting to be somewhat cool, I found my adolescent size to be an advantage in concealment as I was sure all 40,000 fans were staring at my intensely patriotic, but 'corny' dad. I've since grown to both understand and deeply appreciate what he was so fired up about. When I first heard "America Our Country, America Our Home", I was immediately moved by an appropriate tribute to those lost on September 11. However, after a few more days, the melody continued to work on my subconscious mind. Then it hit me. I was listening to a contemporary American anthem! As a musician & producer, it became obvious I had no choice but to start recording. In fact, I couldn't sleep until I was satisfied I had something that did justice to Maryann's heartfelt lyrics. It was pure emotion for me. I was simply reminded how proud, grateful and lucky I am, to be an American, enjoying a good life. The power of Ron & Maryann's song brought home my personal connection in discovering that reality firsthand. I really do love how memories work on the creative mind. My dad knew it. Thank you, Ron & Maryann for the gift. About the Artist Ron and Maryann Sfarzo were born and raised in San Francisco, CA. Ron is a police officer with the City of Menlo Park.
