Rockin' Jerusalem

[i2acf2011]

Holy crap! I was in that choir as a Tenor. I wonder if I can see myself.

[massou1]

Wooooow! Precision, control, articulation...very well done, God is honored by your dedication and hard work.

[emilyyr17]

fantastic! our choir is doing this right now and this video helps me practice its so spot on, great job!

[hdrice10]

You can tell this is a very disciplined choir! You all sound great.

[jonje1993]

The Sopranos did an amazing job!!!!

[KrustyFrank27]

We sang this last year for our chorus, and I found myself singing the bass part. "In new Jerusalem oh."

[Danande15]

OMG.. You guys sound great..&there are alot of people in this choir. it really made it sound.. whole. : )

[liltae134]

i love this song and its actually a piece all south west tn is doin this year

[Sevencrazythings]

@liltae134 audition tomorrow...

[LilMissLacy1128]

BEAUTIFUL :D

[jonje1993]

@LilMissLacy1128 Now when I watch this I think of you and Laria singing the High A! :)

[LilMissLacy1128]

@jonje1993 Lol! omg you wouldnt believe how LOUD everyone singing that note is in your ear x.x good lord have mercy.

[jonje1993]

@LilMissLacy1128 lol but y'all sounded really good

[Hopeless200]

i love this

[operaemi]

we sang this piece in district chorus last year, we were conducted by the compser himself. It was pretty epic.

[grandeefulsome]

I have listened to many versions of this song and by far this is the best! I love to sing and it makes me want to be there in the middle of the 2nd sapranos or at least be some where in there singing in what my family calls the "also" section. if someone sings a little lead saprano or some alto and a little in the middle we just say they sing "Also" :-)

[kidadada74]

what does rockin jerusalem mean

[minime220220]

that was okay, but check out our choir at alabama honor choir this year /watch?v=LlpxKLkV40o

Add that to the end of the youtube homepage address.

[NOHeHasNot]

Yeah, that was really, really good!! ;-)

[atlanteanprince]

Did Damon conduct you?

because we did this piece for the all-district 2 chorus last year, and he was our director.

[rune2341]

dis shyt suXx... it sounds like their just singing because they have 2 not because they want 2 if they felt the song more then it would have come out better this sounds 2 rehearsed 2 perfection n then in a big ass gym... who sings in a gym this is so low community...

[aerodynelove]

@rune2341 - I'm very sorry we couldn't preform at the national hater standard. Next time you guide 375 people through a choral piece and post it on youtube make sure to send me a link so I can leave a nice positive comment and thumbs up for you!

[hellokittychs]

@aerodynelove you tell him :)

[130Alle]

@aerodynelove thats ok My choir performs in gyms all the time its ok especially when u have 6 choir classes singing a total of 550

[erican1991]

yeah dude. just shut the fuck up.

[LilMissLacy1128]

@rune2341 Wow... such ignorance from what it seems a child. This is the best version I've heard on youtube. They blend, they aren't shouting the whole time, they aren't rushing it. It sounds great. If you knew anything about choral music you would know that.

[jonje1993]

@LilMissLacy1128 I agree! :)

[nytovaok516]

@rune2341 lol. ur complaining because the song is too perfect and rehearsed? i lol'ed. HARD.

[cwallace7997]

I'm sorry but I don't know what all these other comments are about (well I do, they're haters) but this is GREAT... first of all for a choir that size to articulate so well in a GYM is fantastic. Second great dynamics. Third sopranos exhibit lots of control. Again... IN A GYM!!! I really enjoyed the post.

[hellokittychs]

@cwallace7997 there are third sopranos??! never new that!

[aerodynelove]

It's actually a collab of all the best from the high schools in the NW section of Kansas.

[bigmanbass09]

Is the whole school apart of the choir!lol

[hope4candy]

very nice. (:

simply beautiful.

thanks.

[renzy79]

Well done! The Renaissance Singers in Detroit do it a bit better even though they are a smaller group though and there is more depth and richness to their sound. Good job though!

[kangofaug706]

it was iight..not dat great.. my school choir do it better...(but yall gud to na)

[starrrian]

tempo?

[Vangelist]

tip2cute05: I agree with you. I sang this song with the Tuskegee University concert choir (HBCU). We did put a little bit of 'soul' (for lack of a better word). However, this choir did a fantastic job! This is definitely in my favorites now.

[aerodynelove]

sorry, we were all pretty white and stiff. xD

[MarioAJ7]

This was great! Just mad that I didnt make it that year! But do you have the "Sure on this Shining Night"

[aerodynelove]

nope. sorry =\

[kcfcx3391]

This was... Pam Bushouse from Lawrence Free State High school I believe. It was incredible. I miss that song :(

[sldeyo]

We're having it tomorrow and I'm super duperly excited!!!

Best of luck at district!! Have fun singing this awesome song!!

[atlanteanprince]

It was such an awesome song.. I had so much fun performing it with him conducting.

[tip2cute05]

our concert choir did this song about 2 weeks on the news... we killed it!! lol.. good job.. but maybe im use to us "puttin a little blackness" in this song... its kinda dull how u all sing it!..but it still sounds good

[BethAndCourtneey]

[Misspooh001]

[NamaeWaChise]

[JAG8176]

We did this in my choir in high school.

[drewc1]

Damon Dandridge is amazing...you guys rocked the house..Love the top...(Sops) and so very glad the tenors stayed in tune!

[satBASS]

Is this the Dandridge Arrangement???

[x3theway2be]

this is the best one ive heard so far. great job =]

[jkh2photo]

Now this is how this spiritual should be sung! AMAZING!

[ChristinaAndJanelle]

wow! this is a very good performance!

and look at your size!

my choir tried out this song but we ended up liking Elijah Rock better.

But great job!

If you want to hear us, search Everglades High School Concert Choir =]

[crosscountrytc]

I was in the South Central District choir....Yeah ours isn't as big, but we also have two choirs, the Women's Chorus and the Mixed. I was put in women's so I didn't get to sing this one at districts lol!

[baroodio02]

holy cow. thats one huge choir. i'm jealous. we couldnt have a choir that big if we took everybody in our town with even an ounce of musical ability. nice.

[liesandsecretsx]

the sopranos rushed it a LOT at the end but it was still really good.

[jonero]

omg!

they did so gud!!!

@ our skool

we doin this song the same way butt

we sayin it difffrently!

[notitle147]

the decrescendos are amazing taking the size of the choir into consideration.

[whiskeyplease88]

I was in that! HA HA HA! We did sound freaking awesome! Second Soprano!

[kcfcx3391]

aww this makes me so happy to see this, i was a part of the districts of this last year, and i had 3 friends who were in the all state choir. yay for pam bushhouse =) i go to smnw

[Ginzo460]

Wow that was Excellent my choir sings is a lot different though I think we sing it wrong :[

[Ginzo460]

Can some one please post the lyrics of this version of the song or send me a link to it.

[ChronosRaikou]

Excellent nice sfz at the end and Tenor 1s sing out more, that part at the end needs to be belted XD.

[feuilledambre]

Damon H. Dandridge is the arranger.

[raymidget]

Wow... that's an enormous choir. How many are there of you? Good job.

[cantfindanothername]

You guys did better than the North Central District choir which I was in!!! But that is probably because our Clinician Sucked!!! but the State Choir Version is AMAZING!!! I wish someone would put that on you tube.

[m98burch]

We did this last semester. I love it, it is done well on this video. Very good!

[mrsperrygirl111]

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!! IS this a DAMON DANDRED composition?

[CRlobe]

I did this different too. SLOWER. But this choir is amazing. Good job.

[boysatellite]

i love this arrangement!!!! awesome!!!

[AllAnimeFreak]

We're singing this song in a competition next week.. but we do it a lot different.. :-) This was cool though, definitly.

[VeryNtycing]

I love this song but I don't really care for this arrangement but I absolutely love the way D'Walla Simmons Burke arranged this piece in eight part harmony for WSSU's choir

[cococharmelle]

Does anybodii know the arranger of this version of the song??

[drewc1]

Damon Dandridge...

[immortalstarlight07]

We have done this song before and are doing it this year also.. but its a little different. its my favorite choir song. you guys have a huge choir! i wish ours was that big!

[cococharmelle]
