TSU Concert Choir - My Soul's Been Anchored By Moses Hogan

[tiggy3323]

what year was this? i sang with the TSU choir in 97-99. we didn't wear the robes then. Dr. Nettles was the director then too. he's fabulous.

This choir has a MAJOR pitch problem.

[Hobbsdude]

Good sounding choir, but they sing it much to fast. There is a thin line between exciting and frantic, and they crossed it.

[1037pm]

Very mature sound, sounds like a great choir :)

[drewdaboi]

they recieve a 4 boo - hiss

My high school Choir did this song and it was so hard, but you guys did very well.

[2blessd2fl]

Be careful of the "runaway train" effect. My college choral director used to talk about how easy it is to speed up a song like this, then it starts to sound frantic. The director sets the tempo- the choir should follow. Those "er's" were killing me but there were SOME good points in this performance. Hogan's pieces are definitely hard to sing & require full use of range & technique...& beyond! I once had the pleasure of working w/him at a choral festival. What an extraordinary talent he was!

I love that High C, my girlfriend is a soprano and when we preformed it got a little to excited went from the C to a D. That was interesting

[ZinnermanS72]

Good job! Can't hear the Bass section and they are just a little flat..the Alto's are the stronger section which is a problem in any choir. all should be balanced and sound as "one". But in short any Moses Hogan piece dared to be sang warrants a huge applause! They can be very difficult to sing and direct.

[Ryanwku]

the basses need to get together and work on there notes...but yall are still good...team work basses

[Morongoel]

it sounds interesting lls

[CharlieBladeRemus]

Oops...basses hit that low note a little sharp. And why did a group of sopranos sing the first verse instead of a group of tenors?

But a decent rendition nonetheless.

[detroitsinger02]

It's really no excuse, i've heard high schools sing the notes off of this. It's so much potential in the choir itself, but give blame to the director also!

[lbcctenor08]

Please stay away from consonants until the vowel has had the time to state itself, and never...NEVER sing another 'r'! It destroyed this song, and you let it.

[ablife1]

Lighten up folks... it's a college choir for Christ sake!!! Sheesh!! You guys sound exceptionally well. Professor Hogan would be proud!

[Vocellist2010]

all the more reason to sound better than this

[kappaleague011]

Tenors need to blend! Gud overall tho!

[GreenCardProductions]

basses were flat on the low e " in the-a lord"

[shadhom]

I am certainly glad God will not be judging TSU choir members on wheter certain parts was flat etc.,lol

[Vocellist2010]

either the tenors of the basses were flat in the very beginning..and the basses were very sharp on that part before "my soul's been anchored" which is kinda sad because it's very important

[musical14u]

oh yes!!! i think it's one of the best he arranged !

[nwmusic06]

wow, the basses were a half step sharp on the second half of the word "the" at 0:36 it almost sounds like they think they are singing the right note, like maybe they just learned it wrong. other than that, good sound.

[mrbrandonboyd]

It's definitely interesting! The Conductor is great, that's for sure. The room is very live and responsive and the sopranos being very close to the microphones does help with the balance issue. Great energy!

[askfortunecookie]

i've never heard it this fast.

it's interesting.

[bobbysaget08]

theyre in what appears to be a fat ass church, give em a break!

[shadhom]

bobbysage-bad lanugage, is that necessary here?

[wadethemage]

yes

[javonnbright]

[LadyLego]

SING SANTA!!!!!!!!!!

[viperzay]

This sounds very interesing.....its not balanced.......and that wierd does not sound good.....and the basses were flat in some places

[soupastar07]

The Bass were flat in some place but other then that pretty good attempt.
