THE ANTHEM FOR THE MUSICAL CHESS ~ JOSH GROBAN
CHESS is a Game played in every Country
With the same Pieces and the same Rules
PAWNS (eight) CASTLES (two) BISHOPS (two) KING QUEEN
The QUEEN is the games most valuable piece !
SHE can move diagonally or she .......
Can move horizontally ~ Bishops can
Move diagonally and Castles can
Move horizontally ~ Knight\'s have own move
And can jump other pieces ~ EXCITING !
PAWNS can move forward only ~ Two squares
First move ~ and one thereafter ! If they cross
Their opponents base line ~ they can transform
Into any piece and attack the KING
I always carry a CHESS SET with me !

My DAD taught me to play CHESS when I was SEVEN and
we had a CHESS club @ Secondary School (age 11) We
played matches against other Schools. Girls are good at
CHESS because they can multi-task (think ahead !) CHESS
is relatively easy ~ once you learn the Rules and play (and
win !) a few games. Then you have a FRIEND for life !
THE MUSICAL really is about CHESS and is about a World
Championship between the USA and Russia in the Italian
Town of MERANO. Florence is the American\'s \"Second\" and
she falls in Love with the Russian who defects to the WEST.
