Beautiful. When I was in 6th grade, we did this song. To me, it feels like whenever I sing it, I'm holding a flower of ice, so delicate and so stunning. Nice job. :)
when I was in WSTC Womens Select Treble Chorus at Langley High in Va we did this piece, it was debuted back 2000 or 2001 that's how long ago it was for me to be in high school. its still a beauty, it always makes me want to cry
I definitely hear the first alto part, but yes, the second altos are a little quiet. I must agree, though, that hitting that low F is INCREDIBLY difficult for some women...Overall, it is a job well done!
I think altos did well, My school is doing this song right now, The note they are hitting is very low, it is very hard to add volume to that, (correction) **Vowels could have been better but, all I think they needed was more diction, all together they did well.
@Maudie12345 The alto 2s were the ones hitting the lower notes. The alto 1s were a bit higher. I was alto 1 when I sung this piece in my choir. I would like to hear some more of alto 1.
@xxStephie09xx The alto 2 part involves hitting a low F. Multiple times. For women, that's a difficult range to add volume to. I'd definitely know from personal experience. :]
The refrains (Weep no more, o weep no more) would have sounded better with a little more power and darker sound. The sung "I" as in "eyes" wasn't spread enough, either, but the other vowels weren't too bad.
All in all, beautiful.
Oh, and the accompanist did a great job. Why aren't the accompanists ever recognized?
the all boy's version is better... sorry; this version is beautiful but i've heard it by a boyschoir (it was also slower)... it's just a matter of opinion- it is still beautiful
The student teacher recently started my women's choir (class? xD) on this song. Like, yesterday. :3
It's easy, but pretty.
I like the tone of this choir--they're not super bright all the time! And they got the count on the "weep" right after "by breast of melodies" right count-wise~ 8D
I can't understand like the first minute and a half though. xD;; Diction there could improve. Or the sound quality of the recording? :?
I'm working on this for S&E with a group of my three best friends. it coming along pretty well so far, but i like the sound of a larger group better than a quartet.
This sounded great... but you just can't beat actualy sitting between the two parts when their singing to each other, tha's when you really here the eco effect.
I'm actually very greatful for the powerful soprano section... I'm a soprano and have a week to learn this song for a county choir performance, and I'm biting my nails! LOL
and it was ironic to hear a crying baby when we performed this same piece at my all-state chorus concert there was a restless child [that you can hear on the cd!].
i would say just exaggerate more dynamics...but you're not a large group. you sounded wonderful for a high school ensemble! good job! this is one of the best i've heard on youtube. :)
This was pretty good. My choir back in high school did this song too. We took that song and The Pelican to out of state competitions and would always win first place. We did those songs justice and its nice to finally hear someone take the song at the speed it should be going..why speed up a lovely song? nicely job done!
this is the original speed, but i just haven't heard a choir sing it as good as our choir did....mihs in 2002....i wish we had youtube back then...lol o well anyway...it was still good...some notes were a bit off but great performance even with the baby....
yea idk why the director didn't wait for the crying baby to stop before she started, but what do u mean "most directors"?? i've never met a director that would stop after they had already started!
anyways, lovely song, some vowels were a little sketchy, but other than that nicely done
our choir did this song to iot had alot of our aduNCE in tears and we WON at hershy park lol you guys did a good job at this song to GO AYLOR CHOIR lol
this is good, but i think this piece is meant for a bigger sound. The mens choir i am in does it and it has more of dynamic sound to it which i believe is better.
Um yeah, you're going to get better dynamics with a larger group. But six of us performed this song as an ensemble in contest and we rocked it; we were only two or three points away from a perfect score =) Good times.
i love this piece and u guys do a very good job on it. i fell in love with this piece when i heard it at a festival my choir sang at in march. keep up the good work!
There never fails to be a crying baby. Can't these people find a babysitter? I have loved this song ever since my school's best choir (the Teen Tones) sang it.
I studied at Blair and sang in the Vanderbilt Children's Concert Choir. David Childs worked and perhaps still works at Vandy. Brings back so many memories from my high school days and traveling around the world for choir tours. We sang this song at ground zero in NYC. So moving.
Tempo is way too fast. Listen to the ACDA 2004 concert in Boston recording done by the Eastern Division childrens Honor Choir. Thats how you do it. But this one isnt too bad.
ok, kick rocks cuz this is gorgeous!! i absolutly love this peice. we heard a group sing it at a contest and blackmailed our chorus teacher to let the girls sing it... nice job ladies
Our women did this last year for a concert. This song gives me goosebumps. Great job!!!
