Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming

[jaypenn123]

Well done! I work at Penn, you always make us proud!

[itsmissyvonne]

There's something lovely about the spur-of-the-moment feel and the hint of making the most of a bad situation (like a roof cave-in). I don't know....I like this. I discovered it last year and sent it around for Christmas. Going around again this year!

[kringlejamster]

wow, gorgeous voices.

[throatee]

i used to sing this in co-ed competition...this is best i've heard yet. good job gentlemen! (i had a hard time not choking when singing this - i just got so caught up in the meaning and harmonies). ;)

[chlorr]

This is gorgeous, guys. I love this piece and I love your performance. I've sung it as part of a co-ed ensemble, but never heard it sung by a men's group. It's really lovely. Thank you for sharing.

[Cranae]

Exquisite song, superb job - thank you. I come here to listen before prayer.

[ItzyBitzyGumdrop]

i sang this song as a solo for choir and aced it

[ajjazz1991]

Outstanding job. Especially for it being soooo cold!

[Chrisfeb23]

You guys should do a Christmas cd...its that good.

[ChadMarcusWhyrick]

Of course this is my favorite carol of all. We used to crowd into the halls of our college library and sing this.  You guys did a great job. Nice place to sing it sounds like.

[luckyslimester]

@ChadMarcusWhyrick That must have been a wonderful experience!

[starbabe58]

awsome

[Marylandguineapigguy]

What a beautiful version of this carol. A friend posted it on her Facebook page and I was so glad to see it. This is not an easy song to sing because the notes are somewhat irregular but you all did a spectacular job. Would love to hear some more of your singing if you have any other videos. Thanks for posting, it's wonderful!

[KaiPendragon]

beautifull :D

Several posters mentioned the snowpile, but it seems that no one noticed that it's a snow sculpture of a Nittany Lion, the Penn State mascot.

[xuscbausp]

we are...

[Chaoku]

@operafudge i thought i saw a face in that snow pile....

[lichtbroeder]

Really nice job. Last Christmas I heard this in an 800 year old church in Austria with snow falling. Hearing you sing this brings me back to that.

[keebearfull]

Hey, Cool, Chilly Shoe Dudes: Nice snow pile. Needs a fresh coat of new white. Try again late this December [2008]. Bet the pile is white high and pure right about now! [oh, and I still like the music too] 12/21/08

[brassspitoon]

Thanks for posting, and as Advent is here and Christmas follows I wish all of you who celebrate same the best. Is being a person of faith still an oddball thing at an Ivy L. School?

[Flamencohorse]

Absolutely lovely! One of my favorite carols/hymns of all time. Thank you for posting it.

[JGMagoo]

I sang this in an all male choir of about 60 men in a large gothic cathedral with a huge pipe organ. I was a soprano then. I have always loved the bass part as in this arrangement! It still gives me shivers today to remember it. Thanks for posting this. WELL DONE!!!!

[Soulblackout]

Beautiful!! Keep up the amazing work!!

[ardeenpierre]

Wow. U guys are very good. I sang this when I was at Miramar High School in Florida, and u guys sound way better. I have to say, good job! That is one of my favorite songs. Might as well call u guys the next NSYNC. LOL! But really, u guys r very talented.

[dlzaragoza]

This is so beautiful. The acoustics are great in there. Thanks so much for sharing it. My favorite Christmas song ever.

[foxxieladie]

Beautiful song and all, but what is that pile of crap in the middle?

[Rsnit1]

That is a snow pile.  The space we're singing in is a semi-open-air dome.

[CriterionCoIIection]

@foxxieladie funny girl you are!

[DrMalPracktiss]

Just beautiful, especially considering the fact that these guys are standing out in the cold.

[Rsnit1]

Thank you!  It was March in Cape Cod, MA. Very, very cold.

[nygiyal]

Lovely!

[alimcd2011]

i sang this song in chamber choir senior year of high school. and i loved it then and you guys did an amazing job, got the goose bumps! :)

[ngfxoxo]

ALI, ME too! I sang second soprano in high school in our choir and this was one of our songs. I really miss being in a choir, and it was so nice to sing along with this doing my part of the harmony. :)

[Staff223]

Great!!! Nice sprint over to the camera afterwards too.

[AcAbAlLeR6120]

amazing,i love the harmony between the bass and tenors

[Zeppelin1618]

Dude, gotta get the German literature in there. Otherwise, good sound. Good bass sound, also.

[timt00]

Nice - thanks for an excellent rendition. I look for a version of this every year - you're it this year!

[elegantocelot]

i am in the holiday mood!

this is def one of the best christmas carols.

[gleecode]

Dudes-

Very nice. Goose the 2nd tenor in the second half. Back off on baritone. You're still the best.

[stelpflug]

very nice, rich sound. I don't know that version but its was still phenomenal. keep it up!

[TheAppleCiderBrigade]

This is absolutley gorgeous.

[cygal50]

This is so awesome! My choir is doing this but it's a different version..

[278371]

I love this holiday carol. The blending of voices here is beautiful. It brings back memories of wonderful Christmases past. I look forward to the Christmas season each year so that I can play this song in my church.

[AmosPressley]

This is so great. The more we see the power of authentic singing with a heart of gratitude, the more we should be able to understand what a CURSE we are putting ourselves under when we feed the dollar-driven "christian" music industry and call it worship.

[joerocklove]

Right On My Friend, Right On!

[Ignoranus]

This is an excellent recording. Could have used maybe a smidgen more dynamics on the second verse, but it still sounds great. I love this song.

[Miveth07]

Well done. This is probably the best version of this song I've found here.

[joerocklove]

FANTASTIC!

[joerocklove]

I honestly just joined youtube so I could comment on the wonderful version of this holiday classic. This is proof that there is still hope in this day and age. Right On to all the singers! This is truely GREAT!

[Miveth07]

So far this is the best video of this song I've seen. Well done.
