i have sung this song 12 yrs ago,i never thought it could be this beautiful!thanks UST Singers for inspiring me more to continue to dream,..and continue my craft.
really awesome, indeed. the only thing I'd like to complain about is that the soprano is maybe a little like one in an opera which isn't really appropriate I think...
@pjr8888 if only you've just read the description below the video (which i doubt you did), you will understand a photo montage was attached with the recording, if only...
well for your benefit and everyone else i'll repose the video description:
"An Irish Blessing by the UST Singers
A tribute to my colleagues in the UST Singers of batches 2001 and 2002.
An Irish Blessing - An Old Gaelic Prayer taken from the UST Singers' First Double CD Recording under JB-Music Germany in 2002."
Gorgeous music & exquisite & divine performance relating to this song entitled "An Irish Blessing". Please, give us the specific URL which allows ordering your CD on-line, as I did not succeed in finding any purchase link by typing "UST Singers JB-Music Germany" through any search engine. Thank you!
mwmike,I think that where we all object is the arrogant tone of your original note-it sounds as if you are taking credit for the amazing sound of this group, which would be obtuse as well..I don't know how far off your knowledge of English is, but I suggest brushing up on some things to avoid sounding like such a jerk, regardless of who you are or what you've done. This includes any "coaching" of this group or their director, which I still find hard to believe.
mwmike, you are claiming that you taught sir fidel 12 years ago? your profile says you're 26 so that make you 14 years old then. wow, you are such a prodigy, BRAVO! you're amazing! If there's a mentor for UST Singers that would be the Saring Himig conductor George Hernandez, and all the great choir conductors from the Philippines, not anywhere else.
I have never heard a cadence voiced in quite this way-tonic only in bass, 5th doubled in tenor and soprano, alto with the 2-3 suspension with the decresendo. I have been involved in choral music for 30 years, and it has always been the little, simple things that really get to me. Wow. When I hear this song I am as moved as I have ever been by any music, be it a Bach chorale or a Beatles's song. I honestly can'y find the words to describe what I'm feeling. Bravo UST!!
i like this song too...nkakaiyak sya lalo na pag sa patay mo kinanta...nakakatkot nga lng ksi bka sumunod k..hehe..until we meet again daw eh...hahaha...pero mganda tlaga ung song pati ung arrangement...
mwmike, how come nobody knows you from this choir? are you sure you are giving pointers to the right choir? i don't think so. its only sir fidel calalang and only him that teaches us and not someone from any part of the world. no offense but you are making a big mistake here dude, get real.
Since I do believe that you are from this incredible group, I wish to convey my deepest thanks for some of the most beautiful music I have ever heard. Everything I hear from you rips my heart out! God Bless all of you!
this is the lyric?: May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the sunshine warm upon your face, the rains fall soft upon your fields. And until meet again, until we meet again may God hold you in the palm and his hand. May the sun brig your dayslight May the stars liuminate yourminds. May the flowers move allow your pain your hands and______ against the sun.... i`m not sure sorry!!!!
I couldn't beleive this!... Philipinos singing Irish song!... more irish songs please... more!... Thanks a million guys!.. greetings from Dublin, Ireland...
Napaluha ako sa inyong magandang awitin. Maraming salamat sa inyong pagbigay ng inyong mga puso sa magandang musika! I can listen to your music everyday.
this also our ending song in our choir and the last song to be sung during the concerts... actually hindi lang to song for us, it's our prayer for each and everyone in the chorale... kaka-miss ding kumanta...
wow,, yah,, sobrang nakakaiyak nga... thanks for posting this... we have also music piece of this.. and this is our favorite song... after we have rehearsals, we always sing it...
miss you din kuya allan! haay, super maloka loka ako sa pag karir ng video na yan. hehe, super naaalala ko mga chorvaness natin sa oyropa! ang mga kinolyas at mga batimey! miss you kuya! see you soon....
great one!!!

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sunshine warm upon your face, the rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again, until we meet again may God hold you in the palm of his hand
May the sun bring your days light
May the stars illuminate your minds.
May the flowers move along your path
Your house stands firm amidst the sun
And until we meet again, until we meet again may God hold you in the palm of his hand (2x)
