nice video!

[nelrish24]

w0w this is cool

[RoboSlater]

Tthe All-American Boys Choir uses this exact arrangement, to greater effect. Better vocals, better production., stronger interpretation.

[Pandanights]

My choir is singing this song, I'm a tenor 1 and it's HARD AS BALLS. But beautiful. Unlike Balls.

[millenniumf1138]

@Pandanights So's mine, though I'm a baritone so I've got it easy. :)

[done53able]

The tone, the pitch, the musicianship, if there was perfection, this is it. Masterful, and the best I've heard. I have choral for many years.

[fatheqbraeuwn]

If this doesn't give you chills... nothing will

[PhazonX]

@fatheqbraeuwn When David Heard will.

[TheAirbear4]

This is among the most beautiful songs that ever were writtena nd this is one of it's finest performances. It literally brought tears to my eyes.

[borecleaner1]

@TheAirbear4 The first time I ever heard this masterpiece was on the closing credits of Oliver Stone's ''Nixon''.....What a haunting and evocative score. When the craziness and dysfunction of this world closes in,I retreat to music such as this.What grace and eloquence and dignity......THIS is America.......

Bellisima interpretacion, una de las mejores que he escuchado, lo mejor que lo cantan a capella, que hermoso. Que ¨Dios les Bendiga. Desde Chile un saludo fraterno.

[l3mg]

This song is a giant euphemism.

[Sylena321]

This is a beautiful song.

[19Breanna95]

[meganbear141]

Ooh, this is the version we're singing in Mayfest! ^^ So nice.

[BurpingLlamaStudios]

They need to pronounce the words better, but great sound.

[Halo101st]

This is just simply beautiful. I am so proud to be an American!

[Bucs09]

Reminds me of my senior year of high school. BHS Choir.

[MsJanet1231]

A wonderful arrangement from James Erb. You can hear the Shenandoah-River flow... Greetings from Germany

[greginabox89]

God's Song...

[jacksonluvr1]

It sounds like one voice!!!!! That's amazing!

[LEOPARDTWO]

Hot tears and chills. Five stars.

[Valkickawesum62]

I love this song. We played it in symphonic band once. :)

[LEOPARDTWO]

A hymn to all Americans past, present - and future who live in this, God's greatest

country.

[ninjatenor17]

[muzicmadnezz]

@ninjatenor17 sorry i accidentally clicked the vote down

[jjpeterson42]

This arrangement appears to be the same one used by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir in the version posted by Cherokee1002. IMO.

[koalablue80]

Very well done. A treat to hear. Thank you for posting this.

Does anyone know who's arrangement it is?

[DemonPlayDemonOut]

I'm in a highschool treble choir and we are doing a different arrangement of this song.

and of course the oxford choir is much better at it.

good job! :)

[Limpandtotheleft]

The Oxford College that I went to!!

I can't remember hearing the choir ever do this, though.

[liberavieve]

Just gorgeous. Do you happen to have any of the other folk songs from this album ("Early One Morning") available?

[treblechoir99]

Oh boy, beautiful, rewarding moment. Thank you for this important moment for me, appreciat.

[NocturnaTagris]

dis song is beautiful,i sang it with the venice allegros

[PTCello]

the melody in the second phrase doesn't ascend, which is what I'm used to(and prefer) but this is gorgeous singing... the human voice is the finest of all instruments.

[Hanoverian1]

A great British choir singing a great American anthem, with a bell-like intensity. Magic!

[perla51]
