Atlanta Chorus - Lo, How A Rose E'er Blooming

[al1936ful]

Is this on DVD now, and if it is, how can we get it?

@threebeamlaser - I'm with you, buddy. We have a very active and successful music program at our church.  I sing in a "traditional" choir that meets every Wednesday to rehearse, and we then sing/pray at Sunday Mass. We also have a large and successful youth choir that works just as hard and sings traditional and contemporary music, generally for Saturday evening or Sunday morning Mass. Many talented young people today are keeping choral music vibrant and deserve a lot of credit Keep it up!!!

Ahhh I miss being part of a chorus. Beautiful.

Amazing! Thank you for posting. This art form of singing centuries old, a capella, will pass away with this generation of baby boomers. These next generations can only lip synch(fake) or spew out filthy rap lyrics like an overflowing sewer that they are.

@dbowie007 Sorry, but I am 18 years old and attended the Robert Shaw Choral Workshop at Carnegie Hall with my high school choir in February. This Choral Workshop was a high-point in my life will still probably be a high-point for the rest of my life. htt.p://ww.w.voanews.com/engli­sh/news/usa/music/High-Schoole­rs-Perform-with-the-Best-at-Ca­rnegie-Hall-117656494.html <----This should teach you not to be so arrogant.

@dbowie007 I'd like to remind you that the baby boomers are the ones who introduced clown masses and interpretive dance to the liturgy. It's only now that their influence is waning that we are returning to normalcy and sanity.

The ASO still does this as a part of their annual Christmas concert. Gives me the chills every year.

Where's the rest?

@derbydog07 this was actually used as an introduction to the orchestra playing "There Is A Rose in Flower." For Shaw's Christmas with the ASO concerts he chose to do only one or two verses of certain songs so the audience could get a taste of several of their favorites while still maintaining a continuity from selection to selection.
