  • Gorgeous!!

  • there's this lovely voice in the sopranos, i think, it really stands out :)

  • Beautiful! I love chorus!

  • This is the best version of this on you tube. Fabulous!

  • Fantastic job girls. I can fully appreciate what a brilliant job you did because our choir has just learnt this song for our annual concert. What a difficult piece it is. You're much better than us :)

  • Great job here to all. The whole thing is very tightly performed and sounds very polished with great pitch. The piano is very nice and no chance of any off pitch notes as i'm hearing with other violin versions of this piece on youtube. Most importantly this music is awesome, and the stained glass in the background with the perspective behind the conductor make this a great video.

  • This song is one of the songs we'll be playing with all girls who will do exams in music. It's fantastic to sing this one. It's going to be one of the best songs of the evening, I think (together with Adiemus by Karl Jenkins)

  • Excellent performance! Helped me a lot in the practice of this music.

  • we're singing this in our freshman choir class!! i love it! so beautiful!

  • It's not bad, but there were a lot of spread vowels, and people were singing different vowels throughout. It also could have been a little more expressive by using more dynamics throughout the piece.

    And to ememz19, the piece calls for an accelerando there.

    I love this song though! We just performed it this weekend at the University of Kansas for our winter concert, Vespers.

  • ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i love this song

  • Omg. We're starting to sing this in choir but we're never gonna sound as good. It'ss beautiful :D

  • not bad- you need to get into it more... altos take command!

    the conductor/ accompanist sped up a ton at the middle which was weird

  • Really good sound =]

    We're learning this in our choir right now to sing for our Winter Show in December.

    Really good sound level fluctuation.

  • Oh, how I miss Flo's graceful conducting. It really is a thing of beauty.

  • wowza

    beautiful!!

    i sang this last year

    it was good but you guys are great!!

    <33

  • i sang this my sophmore year [in hs]

  • im in eighth grade and im singing this in my choir!

  • wer'e singing this in my choir . we're a middle school and highschool choir i thnk that this song iis really beautiful. it's kinda sad too.

    amazing job. 5 starz

  • i love this song i sang it in my choir !

  • great blend and vowel formation, but where are your consonants? enunciate your "t"s

  • It's not the quality of singing that's lacking, it's the commitment. This is a quietly powerful piece of choral music. Nicely sung, just needs to be more heartfelt.

  • i agree dude!

  • There's hear it first, eh?

  • Congratulations on your freshman choir singing such a beautiful song. If you look on Amazon, you'll see many choirs of all levels have sung it. This video was taken with a little $100 camera set on the floor and was not meant to be competitive in any way. Although the recording can not compare to seeing it live, I'm proud that the ladies here captured the essence of Elgar's intentions in composition. As a composer and conductor, I think anything beyond that is icing on the cake.

  • would have been better if it was properly played with the 2 violin (like in the original)and the full piano roll ACCOMP. but great voices ladies.

  • Agreed; our violinists resigned from the project the week before the concert due to pressure from finals

  • my high school choir did this two years ago

    we probably sounded about like this

    i love this song

  • I'm so sorry Florence's head is out of the frame! I wish I conducted as gracefully as Florence! The tempos are terrific, great job ladies!

  • yessss!!
