We're doing this song for All-State Girls Honor Choir this year in January.
It is truly a gorgeous piece. The words having incredible meaning, and the melodies are utterly breathtaking. The harmonies glitter and suspend themselves like drops of silver in the air.
I'm in a middle school chorus, and I have to sing the second soprano part with about 4 other seventh graders and some eighth graders. My friend is a soprano and can sing the solos fantastic, but our choir teacher is only letting an eighth grader sing it. :\
My students are working on this piece for our Spring concert...after listening to several YouTube clips of this song, I've selected this performance for them to listen to as a good example. Nicely done!!!
My chorus sang this song last year and it was definitely my favorite piece, it's a beautiful song. Hearing it now pretty much makes me cry. But I'm kinda a wimp and stuff like that makes me cry. >_<
@djblings123 ... Are you... speaking English? Because I didn't understand anything you poorly attempted to type there. Nice try though, maybe you'll get it by the time you pass third grade.
@djblings123 Do you really think that's offensive? It might have an effect on me if you passed grade school, but probably not. Please, I honestly don't think you're old enough to have a YouTube account, so you might want to go fess up to mommy that you stole her password again.
My choir teacher was the one who directed that year. She said that she wasn't allowed to pick the soloists and she said she would not have picked those kids but alas she had to do what they told her.
The first soloist was fine, but the others weren't as great. A choir is only as great as its weakest link for sure. The song sounded fabulous in its totality. I sang bass on this song its so crazy how being able to hear the whole choir completely changes a lot of the song. Great job!
oh i like this. i'm pretty jealous though. you guys had guys singing the lowest parts. i'm stuck singing it now cause it's all women(highschool girls ha) ha oh well :)
the solos were bad because the most pretentious (if you know what I mean) and weakest choir kids ended up getting them, and they became nervous the day of the concert and messed it up
the ones that could actually sing well didn't actually audition for it, because they didn't want to sing alone for a few seconds :p
I was in this.. my director conducted that year, and we did this piece in chorus again the following year. For a middle school chorus, I think we sounded pretty good, but the solos could have been a lot better.
1:41 .... I just needed a hyperlink xD

I didn't think the soprano solo was too bad, but--
I can't exactly say that about the other two...

But the whole song, -excluding the soloists- was amazing. x.x;
