The ACLU must have been sleeping. They let a school band play a hymn, and one dedicated to our armed forces? The courage shown by the school equals that shown by our soldiers, saliors, marines and airmen.
drums could start a little better to set the mood of the piece and i dont like how the conductor held out the first note longer than it was supposed to be. ive played and rehersed this piece with 3 DIFFERNT bands.. and the build up with the trumpets could of been a lot stronger but the bass line was amazing good job kids
We played this with band, orchestra, and chior... and oh my god, we like made our teachers cry.. this is very well done. I am in concert band at SQHS!!!! Great job!
im learning to play this with my band and were going to perform this at our rememberance day ceremony at school and at the board office. i really wish we could sound like this in the end. very beautiful, very well done!
The school the performance was held at was in Harrisonburg, Virginia. But the students that made up this band were from different schools in one school district.
To HELL with the ACLU!
GOOD FOR THE SCHOOL DISTRICT!

This version sounds like church or cathedral music. Absolutely beautiful.

Nice. Those clarinet high notes are hard for me, but I absolutely love playing this song :) can't wait to perform it.
