This particular version has been my favorite ever since I first heard it.

Every year, the Kentucky State High School Choir gathers in Louisville for concerts. They stay at the Hyatt Regency in Louisville, which has a massive center atrium. Every night at 10 o'clock, the singers gather at the balconies of their respective floors and sing 'The Star-Spangled Banner'. They do it slowly and with great reverence. The acoustics in the atrium are almost cathedral-like and makes it sound just that much more special.

This version is from 2019. IMO, it's the best I've heard them do. It never fails to bring tears to my eyes.

Good evening, hoagy...I’ve heard about this, but not seen it. It is spectacular! Love the setting.

Thanks for sharing.
