Hamilton is without question the most creative, talked-about musical to hit Broadway this millennium. In this standout selection from the show, the lead characters lay out their plans for victory, despite their personal hardships. Arranged for strings and a vocalist by Paul Lavendar and Larry Moore, this is a clever way to connect orchestra students with contemporary music.
