Thank you for posting this video. It is perfect in every way. As you mentioned, the sound is amazing and that young singer did steal the show. I found her name and it's Lance Corporal Hannah Smither.

Here's a video of her talking about her career with the HM Royal Band.

Chicago - Feeling Stronger Every Day

LJ posted a video of HM Royal Marine Band and it was amazing. That, of course, got me searching for more from this group and I found this rendition of Sound of Silence. This has been one of my favorite songs sine I bought Simon and Garfunkel's song book and learned to play it on the guitar 55 years ago. There have been great renditions of this song over the years, and here's another one. If you like the song, give it a listen.

A classmate of mine from high school days is in this choir. Here they are performing Africa by Toto. I got a message from my classmate this morning that they are having a concert and that led me replay this video on YouTube. This is what happens when you have talented people who really enjoy what they do led by a gifted and passionate director and conductor.

I've listened to many of their videos. Quite an amazing and diversified orchestra.

But a little trivia here:

If you were never able to understand the spoken words of the Gladiator video or even on the original soundtrack sung by Lisa Gerrard, it's because the language does not exist. It's called glosalalia or a made-up language.

Here's the original version:
