Diz arranger iz da best out dere kauz it waz played wit much emotion and heart. Prof. Edwards put his heart into diz arrangement which iz y we kan feel it in our heartz wen we hear it. R.I.P. Prof. Edwards

To all of you who think you have to play everything traditionally... you will never stand out. The reason Prof wrote this was to make sure we stood out from the rest. This rendition is the best I have heard and I am not biased. I hope we all can enjoy it without bashing. Listen to the chords, and the movement, feel our PROF put his heart into this arrangement.

listening in honor of James "Prof" Williams...heaven is gonna have a helluva pep rally now!

my dad went to this school and im in this school right now...and i remember when they played this song for us..after we came runnin through the gates!!!go PV

Ridgefield Memorial High School NEEDS this kind of raw power to make the music serious!

Nice. I'm feelin it.

ok..nobody else has said a word.....but..dang...THIS IS GOOD! YES?!

beautiful just beautiful il be there in 2 years

Jazzy soundin, like New Orleans. I like it.

sounds good...i like this arrangement

very very good....good job pv....finally

If u dont beleev dat itz da best, re-think your decision afta you listen to dat modulation at the end

good job pv

@jazzturtle...considering i do the whole gospel, jazz and neo soul thing on my trumpet....you and me both know the importance of originality in those genre's of music....we have our own style....block chords are a no-no at pv...what about famu...originality is a must at all times......

Note to Band: Please look up the 7 essentals of tone production. you need to!

GO TRUMPETS!!!!

this was fantastic... idk why ppl are hatin

Good Job PVU! I am feeling that SWAMP. I have a question ,what is the 2nd to the last song? It is about 39 seconds in the video.

Thatis whitney Houston's version

Tubas need work. Also, band should work on releases!!! It was better than some I have heard! Loved the ending!

RIP Prof. Edwards

Now I can say this as Alumni, Yall need to do some crunches or something, that was a weak sound. You got to play it strong everytime. ESPICALLY BASSES!!!

me too, but i like dis arrangement tho!

I wonder if they still play this one?

Its OK

sso u go to this school now??? lik me?

Its traditionally a beer drinking song to begin with. I really don't see the problem with it as I have seen other dramatic interpretations of the National Anthem that haven't been criticized for their liberty.

Oh Rowdy...no, I dissagree...I love the "flatness" of it...it's true and real

oh well i still dont know

Nice job! As a drum major myself i know the difficulties. Play your hardest! Low brass especially. Good job but i personally didn't like the arrangement

whys it so slow

man im dont know wether to go wit yall to pv or grambling i know yall band is better but sometimes it seems like yall get yall ass wooped man idk what to do i should be at pv by 2010

wtf- the national anthem is in 3/4. can't they play a song in 3/4?

As a fellow musician, it is beautiful and the chords are nice even in the fleeting tones with the major 7ths and all, but I also agree that this is too much of a traditional song to have all these fleeting interpretations going around. Once again, nice rendition of the version that Whitney Houston performed at the Super Bowl(I can't remember the exact one or year), but the furthest that I can go from the standard version is the arrangement done by UAPB.

it was horrible ! they didn't play together and it was sloppy! blend and balance, please ! sounds like a high school

IDK...I'm having mixed emotions about this arrangements....granted, very nice chords with the escaping tones and major 7th and all, but I feel like its not appropriate for such a traditional patriotic song. Some stuff should be left more traditional than others. Just my opinion though.
