I actually was a singer in both VGL concerts in calgary and i was EXTREMELY dissapointed that we didn't do this piece again :( I loved this one so much!
I went to the Montreal VGL on the 8th of Feb. It was awesome. Indeed Baba Yetu is one, or not the best song from the concert. I thought the soloist was a bit weak.. We could barely hear him. But in all.. a lot of fun. BOught the tickets the day earlier; best decision ever :)
Tommy, the host, actually said, when I went to the Montreal concert, 'I see a lot of read lights (cameras).. post them on youtube, we need the publicity!) lol
I was one of the choir, and I can tell you we all enjoyed it immensely - and Baba Yetu was my favourite piece by far - wasn't the tenor soloist fabulous? Whether recording devices were allowed or not, I can tell you that from the stage I could see the lights of more than one recording device pointed at us. It was really neat to hear how we sounded - thanks!
Hmm, really? Didn't know people defied the rules so well in Calgary. XD
Anyways, yes, I was impressed myself by the tenor soloist (considering I used to take choir in high school as a tenor, and was blown away by the soloist).
And you guys as a choir did an awesome job. Especially on ONE. WINGED. ANGEL!
What???? They are not doing this one this year? Nnnnoooooooooo

Amazing, Jack Wall said it was the better or best solo voice he'd had. Listen to some of the other clips from around the world ...
They don't even come close!
Way to go Kevin

This was an awesome concert, glad I went.
What intrigues me is the fact that you got this video, considering the fact that we weren't allowed to bring recording devices into the auditorium.

Kevin nice job on the high notes on the end of the solo. Sounds way better in the audience than from the Monitors on stage, lol. Andrew
