Choosing among the listed versions

Three scores appear under Jefferson and Liberty. Their opening key signatures are listed as no sharps or flats, one sharp, and two sharps (D major). Two scores give opening tempos of 180 BPM and 150 BPM; the remaining score has no tempo listed. Use the key that suits your playing range and the tempo that matches your intended pace, then check the score itself for the notation you need.

Title variants and attribution

One score is titled 'Paul Revere's Ride or Jefferson and Liberty,' while the others use 'Jefferson and Liberty' alone. No composer is credited for these scores, and the available information does not identify an original version, composer, or historical origin. Treat the title pairing as a title variant unless the score itself gives more information.

Working with 6/8 notation

All three scores are listed in 6/8. Check the beaming, accent patterns, and any tempo marking in the edition you choose, because the listed opening tempos differ and one score has no tempo marking.

What to verify before playing

The listings do not state instrumentation, difficulty, or whether each score is a complete melody or an arrangement. Examine the first page and any notes in the score to confirm clef, range, key, and length before you rely on it for performance or teaching.
