[sschoirgeek]

haha so our choir did this song did this last year and every section had their own dance and as the altos we did everything from the sprinkler and the can can and the macarena and even flashed the audience then on the pause we took a second to stretch and stuff and the choir director stood on a board in the audience and yeah it was crazy hard to describe hehe

[danceingqueen112]

im trying out for this choir this year im so nervous!

[Icyveins906]

My only problem with this is that god you could have done sone crazy things if mixed quartets had been set up. Hello, national honor choir=amazing. The sound and movement was great, but your balance could have been enhanced this way. If you had done wrapping quartets, meaning SATB,ATBS,TBSA... you could have REALLY ramped up and improved the overall appearance of certain choreography bits. still wonderful performance that I listen to every week.

[tisfgihts]

yea, that sounds great. But, mrs. bass had three days maybe two to work with three hundred kids who most didn't even work on the music before coming to the convention... so this was about as good as it could get.

[itsTiLER]

@tisfgihts i was in okahoma city when this took place, but i was in the middle school/junior high choir, we had 5 days of rehearsal

[gu3grl]

@tisfgihts As a member of the choir I take that very offensively, were you a member of the choir? If not then you have no idea the preparation that each individual put in before hand while in Oklahoma. For you to say that it was "as good as it could get" is very disrespectful.

[tisfgihts]

@gu3grl yes I was a member of this choir, and I do have an excellent idea of the preparation put in before hand... like when Mrs. Bass ordered the entire choir to stop rehearsal to learn a song we were supposed to have memorized. So yea I would say "there sure was a lot of prep done beforehand."

[Icyveins906]

@gu3grl Well, it was the choir's disrespect to Mrs. Bass that diminished this piece. There is a reason she's conducted all-national twice and all-central before, and the fact that enough people in this group decided to not learn the music as assigned is simply appaling. I've made nationals twice, eastern twice, and NJ State the max 3 times, and I would have walked out had I been this group's conductor knowing you had months to memorize notes/rhythms.

[pandiplump]

We are doing this in choir... It's really hard to learn!

[axd2008]

SENSATIONAL!!!

[latentbeing]

WHOO HOO!!! i got chosen to be in this choir for 2010!

[fivelevymaster]

[danceingqueen112]

[292x1]

Mr. Rossini would be laughing. Well done. Loved the soprano solo near the end. I love it!
