The Mansions of the Lord

Selection: The Mansions of the Lord
Composer: arr. Michael Brown

This is from this year's District V band event, the second selection in the Concert Band's portion of the concert. Participants are chosen by audition. After a two-day workshop, the Middle School, Concert, and Symphonic bands hold a concert for the public. Our director was Mr. Scott Rikkers, Assistant Director at James Madison University. My mom recorded this video, since I'm on stage, lost somewhere in the second row in the clarinet section. :3

*You may recognize this piece from "We Were Soldiers" or Ronald Reagan's funeral.

wat city is this skool???

[RandomLeikWhoa]

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!

@jaybrocavi12 it is supposed to be, its a hymn

[ZT2ExtinctAnimals]

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.

[Bobk857]

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.

This is excellent. These high school kids are great.

The snare drums a bit off at the beginning. But everything else was very smooth!

We're playing this song in band too. I like the voice version better though.
