Miserere Mei

[larrynickel]

Who is the composer of this version of Miserere Mei?

[kittywuver567]

This song was amazing at the Iowa All State music festival. Who ever participated did fantastic. I wanted to cry. It was beautiful. Great job!

[13zawrig]

Singing this at All-State was the gracious gift of a lifetime. I hope I am fortunate enough to experience it again next year!



[twilightluvr220]

The sound of this song being sung from in the middle of a 600-person choir is literally the best sound I've ever heard in my life. So sad it's over. :( I love watching these recordings!

[weneedharrypotter]

Best wishes to all you who made it. :) Another disappointment for me, I'm afraid.

[McSpiffy88]

Why is everybody singing this with 1-note-wide vibratos. :\ The piece should have nothing of it.

F.U.B.A.R.

[twilightluvr220]

Such a great song! :D Can't wait for all-state!

[sourdohboy]

Look at us all listening to recordings the day before All-State auditions. Good luck everyone!

[allykat12893]

Fave choral song ever, i hope i make it so i can sing it in a huge choir

[ivydude0]

@trackandfieldboy yea there are some really powerful parts in this song it is definately one of my favorite songs I've sang.

[RastaPlatypus]

How many choirs are formed by the Iowa All_State program? Here in Kentucky there are three (SSAA, TTBB and SATB) but they are much bigger than this.

[actor1994]

@RastaPlatypus just one choir of 600 students. SATB  extremely hard to get into

[trackandfieldboy]

Totally got goosebumps at 3:12. Got goosebumps for all of it actually :D

[trackandfieldboy]

that is so amazing. if i was ever part of a group to sing this i would be so proud.

[DeadPeds]

Am I the on'y one that's reminded of Eric Whitacre when I hear this?

[drawer304]

So beautiful! and the Alto 2 line is fairly easy. Basically 4 notes :)

[6YouveGotFail9]

So... No one ever taught them how to stand still?

[MikaylaJ94]

[americanidot55]

hey let's do crows and clusters. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[Denton13173]

@americanidot55 Apparently students at Wartburg allstate camp Found information linking the writer and the composers to copious records of drugs. Including, but not limited to; pot, speed, and a little LSD.

[6YouveGotFail9]

@Denton13173 Pshaaaww! Pot, speed, and LSD never hurt anyone... Okay maybe a little, but still!

[DumbCockatoo]

This is my favorite song from All State this year! :D <3

[steelvenom2003]

I graduated two years ago, but Iowa has some seriously ballin All-State music this year. This and The Sounding Sea are amazing. Good luck to everyone auditioning! It's the most incredible feeling in the world singing with all those people.

[maddiemckelvey]

This is probably my favorite piece from the IAS music. :) It's so pretty!

[TrumpetChoir]

[MusicalMeeky]

@xxdeborahh I'm doing all-state this year too! this isnt my favorite one but I like all the songs we are doing.

[rosieposieman]

Wow guys, this is a beautiful performance. Just sung this at a concert on Sunday so I feel like I have an appreciation of how hard it is to maintain the intensity of this song the whole way through - you did it amazingly. Awesome!
