I love to hear the Mormon Tabernacle Choir sing their version of "Battlehymn of the Republic." Powerful stuff!
Thanks for reminding me about that song. Most excellent!
I used to sing "Alleluia chorus" in high school glee club. We made a big production out if it, like it is suppose to be. I think that is the name of it. Been a long time. The one where the King of Sweden stood for the final part, so everyone stands for it.
Can you help me out with the name of the song?
That was arranged, as were many of the best Choral arrangements, by Carmen Dragon (Composer, Conductor, and father of Daryl Dragon - The Captain of The Captain and Tennille) for his favorite large Chorale group. That group performed many times with his Glendale Symphony Orchestra both in Glendale and in their home city...
The Stockton Chorale put on a memorial concert for Carmen a year after his death which was attended and performed in by both Daryl and Carmen's daughter, also named Carmen, who is a gifted harpist.
He also arranged the most performed version of "God Bless America" ...
I sang in that concert as Bass Section Leader...
