i once sang this in my high school choir, now two years ago. that was such a good year in choir, i would give anything to relive that year, my freshman year. there are so many memories for me in this song, so to hear another choir sing it makes me yearn to have bought a recording of my freshman year choir. i really do miss it so...
You performed this very well. Sounds much like a college group (: We're performing this in about a month or so. Hopefully we can sound as fantastic or at least half as good as you guys (:
This is probably my favorite choral song ever. I just wish you guys didn't sing it so fast, but I guess that's the director's fault. It's so much more powerful and emotional when the harmonies are drawn out.
This arrangement takes me back! SCVA Honor Choir did this, once upon a time. Its great to hear another choir perform this, and hear the awesome blend between all 25 different voice parts!..LOL...
All in all, it sounds like you have a tight choir with good direction..I would give anything to be back in a chamber ensemble.
just like you jed, my choir is singing this for our christmas concert... and.. im pretty sure its next thursday...... or.. the thursday after that? one of them. we take this song a little slower, but its essentially the same... and "pa-ri-for...-ma"(the first 'un) is probly gunna be the loudest part for our concert. so yeah, good luck with your concert jed!
The transeamus part brings me to tears everytime.

One of my favorite choral settings of this text.
Very mature sound for high school singers.
Would like to see the director play with tempo a bit more, maybe add some rubato.
Bravi tutti!

-women are breathy at first
-men said vir-chew instead of vir-tue
-your vowels in words such as "rose" are concise and gorgeous, but several ending vowels sounded lazy
-good diction=]
-great energy
-"leave we all this worldly mirth" was not completely in tune, but to an untrained ear, would sound fine
-the overall sound was pretty...but i could tell that the most of the choir didn't feel emotionally connected to the song...your sound wasn't unified
-well done with volume changes.

Good use of dynamics... Cadences are together. It really is a beautiful song, especially the last stanza. I could listen to this all day.
