  • My Choir is learning this piece for Assessment It's crazy how much I can relate to it at the moment We received the sheet music about a month ago but didn't start looking at it until today As soon as I heard it I wanted to break down in tears Five days ago the poem was read at my Grandfather's memorial service He passed away February 12th Receiving this piece a Month ago I feel it was a sign from God "Spend more time with your Grandfather He is about to return to my side"

    I regret not heeding it

  • This sounds a lot like "My Master from a Garden Rose"

  • @Mattbass7 My Master from a Garden Rose is basically the Easter response to this song. That's why you can hear similarities, especially in sunlight/alleluia.

  • watch?v=V6xK10sWE1Q nice bass in your video, i think this video does it justice as well if you wanna check it out

  • nice tempo and use of vowels. A lot of pretty voices stuck out so it needs a little more blend.

  • nice last note on bass =)

  • We used to sing this at SLU. Beautiful piece. I want it sung at my funeral. Kind of dismal to say, though. Lol.

  • men are too loud. they overpower the girls.

    good vowels.

    not so good high notes.

    altos?

    GREAT cut-offs.

  • We're singing this in my choir! :D

    Power to the altos!

  • "Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there...I did not die."

  • I love this song. it's beautiful.

  • The alto part is hard to pick up when you are not an alto and therefore are not able to easily pick out the middle intervals, and have not sung this in a choir.

    It's nicely done, but I wish there was more expression. I feel like the whole thing is very rushed as well. But I'm not certain of the precise tempo this song was written for.

    What I mean is that this song is about someone saying, "I'm dead, but I'm still here." The notes right after the high points are pitchy, slowing down will fix it

  • @equistera the ink is never dry in this type of music, the tempo isnt too fast or. its exactly how the choir intended it to be.

  • Question: I'm looking for a song by Eleanor Delay called "Ave Verum Corpus." and yes I do know that there's a song by Mozart but that's not the one I'm looking for.

  • I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee this song. I didn't sing it but another group from my school did.

    btw.

    altos rule.

    that is all. =]

  • my HS choir sang this earlier in the year

    go sopranos!

  • in the choir i am in we are learning this song,

    i love it :)

    and i love the alto one part :)

    cuz of course i am one? ;D

  • i LOVE this song!

  • Certainly Pitchy at times and I'd like to hear more of the parts to thi here. Good though

  • Is it hard singing the alto part in this??!

    It's so hard to hear alto..

  • It actually isn't.

    I'm learning this piece in school right now and I'm an alto. While it isn't simple, it's not DIFFICULT to sing.

    I only hear about one also most of the time.

    But they are very good. I liked it. :>

  • The only reason that you might not hear the altos is because your ear always picks up on the higher pitches. As I am atuned to the alto part, and am used to hearing the inner voices, that's what I heard. The arrangement is beautiful choir, I hope we sing as well as you did. :)

  • best one i've seen on youtube.

  • This is a beautiful piece. I first heard it this past all saints day at an even song. very moving.

  • LOL @ Grandma in the beginning! But, a beautiful song

  • THAT"S YOUR GRANDMA!?!

    omigosh she's soo cute~!

    nice song, and nicely sung too btw :P

  • this choir is small....

  • So beautiful. I sang this in my choir in high school years ago.

  • im on my brothers account but im singing this song for chorus...it is such a beautiful song
