The Declaration of Independence has been called the greatest written state paper of western civilization. The text of the Declaration can be divided into five sections: the introduction, the preamble, the indictment of George III, the denunciation of the British people, and the conclusion. I have tried to present these five sections in a very short musical programmatic format.
