2007 Women's All-State She Weeps Over Rahoon

[xxhayleelolxx]

I had to sing the first soprano in this song when I was in Glee (Chorus basically) at Clemson University, SC. It was my favorite song of the collection we performed. :)

[DancingHippoYillie]

Woo Alto 1's ? :P

[ayehartewe]

I was in this, what a fun group of ladies we had!

[HUIJINSZXC]

The sop ones sound really tight, I would know b'cos I'm in a choir and I am a sop 1. And the vowels are not deep enough, so you guys are not blending properly. Anyway, good try(:

[kaitykittykat]

Vowels are quite rough and sopranos need alot of work ps MORE alto

[pobarvanka11]

It's good but it's too slow, we sing it more vivid. :)

and also 1 sopranos are NOT good?

[jcashlover63]

Gorgeous song...whitacre is amazing

[BeccaCullen111]

beautiful sound....vowels are spread, high notes sounded kind of forced and through the throat, but over all incredible job, i love listening to this. very good job. keep singing!

[vampsluvme]

this is my fav song of all time! especially since the Soprano 1s go really REALLY high

[vampsluvme]

@OHLiVEUHisAHMAZiNG GO SOPRANOS!!!!!! We can break glasses!

[XxARTMASONxX]

i love love love this; was one of my most favorite songs to sing while in Women's Choire

[megcalxmusic]

Absolutely gorgeous. This piece is phenominal, and very difficult. Excellent job.

[wildcatcruse]

singing this for chior and i love it! go Eric whitacre!!!

[bloodsukr13]

i have to sing this in choir...its my type of song and everything. awsume

[xXinsanity92Xx]

Just performed this piece today... NJ Region 1 Women's Chorus =]

NJ Regions/All-State ftw! xD

[MonkeyMadness1995]

I wass in thaat!! haha

[NateMelo614]

ERIC WHITACRE!!!!!!!

[SoftballSweetie64]

oooo i got goosebumps throughout the entire piece. very nice job!

[Lauren1413]

yall SUCK! at this peice and i kno cuz our chorus sings it way better we actually round our vowels and at the end it is supposed to sound like rain but yall are not pronounciating right and accenting on the ts (just some helpful hints on this peice) and yall r off on some notes

[sunkistxk9]

right now where learning this for chior and its pretty intence...i love it:)

[pornomime33]

heckkk yeahhhh texas pwnz!!!

[JLCnCLJ]

This is a wonderful piece... very difficult to learn and have all the chords go together right. You all did a wonderful job with this piece.

[EliseMcKenna7]

ummm ya'll sound young. they didnt sound young this year!

[DeLayneBrown]

ALRIGHT ALTO 2's!!!!!!!!

[Isebella2011]

WOOT WOOT!! I MADE TEXAS ALL-STATE!!

[RM82790]

omg i was in thisssssss

such a good group, an amazing expirienceee!!

does anyone else have videos of us??

[juantennis9589]

WOOT WOOT ALTO 2'S!!!!

Hitting F's like nothing!!!!

YAY New York!!!!

[systemofadownluvr]

oh wow,

the vowels really were spread.

it's good at parts, but I find it hard to believe that this is a state level choir.

where are the dynamics?

[JLCnCLJ]

They had dynamics... i have the music in hand now as i am typing and they followed right along as James joyce and Eric Whitacre wrote.

[onenicole]

go texas region 19! and soprano 1's :)

but sadly our womens choir didnt do this song for region, i was in mixed :) 16th chair haha barely made it! the whole dorchester canticles is amazing :)......and freshman rule!

[grr1118]

choir nerds!! :)

[systemofadownluvr]

Woo Texas Region 17 Soprano 1's!!

we OWNED this song at Region a few weeks ago.

:D

[rampaige707]

we sang that this year at all region, i <3'd it..unfortunately i only made the women's and not the mixed, since they take the top 16 and i got 18th, therefore i will not be moving on...but its ok, i have 3 more tries! i'm a freshman..and soprano 1's are the bomb btw! :)

[jcashlover63]

soprano 1's are amazing

[angelofmusic01]

Woo Go Region 14 (Texas)

Soprano 1's are better!!!

I made first chair at District, Zone A.

I made State last year. 6th chair

And about the song, it was a little slower than I would have taken it. I can barely hear the piano, and nice English Horn! Alot of spread sounds too. Otherwise a great performance!!

[AwkwardSilence20X6]

Region auditions are next weekend with this song! I'm so excited/nervous. Region 14! (Texas) Go Alto 2s!

[justwithinreach]

WOO-HOO ALTO 2'S!!! [Texas, Region 8!]

Our region auditions were in September! All-State auditions are in January! I'm also excited/nervous lol

Good luck!

[dancinfool012]

I'm so nervous. I'm auditioning this weekend. Woo! Cantate Domino is a beast!

[musefan4]

my choir is doing this song for our christmas concert

SOPRANO 2!!! we're the REAL WOMEN!

altos are the brutes, and soprano 1s are divas

[sbucksfanatic]

i'm guessing you have sutherland... i do too. and yes we are the real women

[TaylorT]

omg, me too =] lol. The second I read the  Real Women comment I knew it had to be someone from Advanced Women's :] <3

[KayteeLola]

Haha. i'm in advanced womens too :)

lol just saying.

go suth.

[renthead1989]

look, I appreciate your comments but please keep them nice and/or constructive. We worked very hard to get into this choir and worked even harder for the concert so please respect that.

[KissMeVogueModel]

I love this song.

I can't wait till our region auditions. We're not doing this one, but I remember singing this learning it during the summer. Its such a beautiful song.

-Soprano 1 bby! =]

[LittleLotte1410]

@renthead1989 There's nothing wrong with constructive criticism to keep in mind for the future to give you an even better sound. I would be grateful for it. It doesn't mean you didn't work hard and it isn't already beautiful, but there is always room for improvement.

[frezerburntskinnycow]

i tried out for region today in texas and oh my god

i totally bombed this song.

right now im anxiously waiting for the results to show.

ALTO II :D.

(p.s. D11-31)

[insertcreativename2]

[JapanimeFangirl]

[PrincessDino4]

[Meganrox001]

hmm...this group doesn't really give this song the justice it deserves. vowels and such...but the song itself. ooooooh. *chill* creepy goodness. yay Texas All-State! Here I come!

[sweetxsorrow27]

Say whatever makes you feel better

[Brainstrain91]

I'm not even signing this for All-State (I'm a guy), but I still *love* it! I'm kind of teaching myself the piano part, but it's really k-razy lol.

[natalie7898]

Well I personaly sucked becase I didn't make texas all-state Soprano 2's ALL THE WAY!!!

[xoxocaroxox]

ohh we are doing this song in our bella voce. we've only learned up to calling at grey moon rise. but im a soprano 1 and im soo excited, its such a beautiful song. (:

[Unlistedbabygurl]

im learning the song too and it sounds great. it doesnt sound too abrupt for the style and it doesnt sound harsh at all.... oh and its a big help too.

[rosekaylene]

My woman's advanced choir is doing this piece for our first concert of our school year.

I'm so proud to consider myself a soprano for this piece especially.♥

So far from what we've learned it's been magnificently beautiful.

Our stopping point so far is at "Grey moon rise" before the piano stops.

[ech313]

The Texas All-State Women's Choir is singing this piece this year at TMEA. But no offense, but this choir does not sound like "all-state" quality - more like region or district. I love this piece, but I just wasn't feeling it.

[zeldafreak701]

I agree. I was too unfortunate to get to sing in the Texas All-State Choir because of my conflicts, but my friend is. The piano part of this song is just crazy.

[natalie7898]

I am singing this for the texas state choir auditions

[HerGuardianAngel1991]

OMG YOU ARE, TOO!??!??!?!

SO AM I!!! How exciting! This is probably the best song in all 9 songs. I love it. I sing Alto and it's so much fun, I love the lowest note... Even though I'm the only Alto 1 who can hit it. xD

[jessicaxrabbitxx]

I'm so happy we are learning this piece this year for the TMEA all state choir. It is so beautiful.

[sango36]

thats true I have friend all over the country (millitary brat) and I have a friend thats done a piece like 3 times

[sango36]

go UTSA choir camp. in 4 days we sounded better than this . sorry ladies but texas is great

HEY BURRITO!

[foster910star]

Hey you went to the UTSA choir camp?? So did I! what voice part are you?

[sango36]

I did alto 1 but I have a huge range I go from soprano 1 to tenor 1 ( tenor is not only for men ok ladies )

[foster910star]

Nice, Im a soprano 1! So youre definitely going to try alto 1 this year or what voice part are you trying out on?

[sango36]

alto 1 . I'm not gonna change the part I already know and be behind. choir camp would have been a waist. I'm gonna do dona nobis pacem

[foster910star]

cool, i wonder how the competition is going to be this year...

[specnsadie]

soprano 2

[GPDL09]

wow! yeah you're right. this definately can NOT be texas!!!

[cowsarefun3]

I just got back from the Lamar All State Choir camp and our girls sounded like this

[sassycassiestar]

"and muttering rain, and muttering rain, and muttering rain..... XD

[Criesenfeld]

[LizMizz]

[xGabriellaxBoltonx]

I went to the UTSA choir camp this year and this was my absolute favorite song in the entire folder. Is this from UTSA?

[renthead1989]

No this is the 2007 Florida Women's All-State Chorus.

[VirtualKeronian]

This song was amazing, sung by the girls at choir camp. I envy them.

[2getherwithcole824]

my middle school chorus sang this song at a competetion and we won best middle school chorus out of 47 chorus who entered! and we got all superiers at Festival!

[renthead1989]

Wow congrats!

[wolfmusic92]
