TSO Pays Tribute to Military with Special Broadcast

Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO)

The Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) has released a rendition of the "Star-Spangled Banner." This release aims to honor U.S. service members, veterans and their families. According to TSO's music director Al Pitrelli, the gesture is deeply personal. "Coming from a military family, with a tradition of service spanning generations, this is our tribute to the brave individuals who protect our nation," he explained.

Pitrelli, whose family's military roots run deep, with both grandparents, his father, uncles, and currently, two of his children serving, expressed that military service holds a special place in the hearts of the TSO family. "We always make sure to acknowledge all they do for this country," he added.

Radio stations nationwide are encouraged to broadcast this special performance on Veterans Day, and it is also available for play throughout the year, offering listeners a moment to reflect on the sacrifices made by military personnel and their families.
