A stirring rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner” uploaded to YouTube today has been hailed as an apt tribute to the beginning of the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi. Turns out it is actually a tradition at the Kentucky Music Educators Association’s conference in Louisville for hundreds of high school music students to belt out the national anthem from the balconies inside the Hyatt hotel every night at 11 p.m, WDRB reports. But in any event, watching the video will certainly get Americans psyched to root for Team USA.
