Here's the heart-swelling central anthem from Ragtime, beautifully arranged for a cappella voices! A lush ah and oo introduction yields to the stirring strains of Stephen Flaherty's stunning Broadway ballad, which gradually builds to a wall of sound as Lynn Ahrens' lyrics unfold. This arrangement delivers the spirit and truth of an important message---especially relevant today.
