we did this song at honors choir year before last :D we'd start so soft and controlled and then at the chorus the room just filled with sound and everyone would shut their eyes and sing and just feel the music....amazing experience :)
this is amazing....were doing this song in my choir and i needa show my director this video......n u gav me ideas on how the solo im tryin out for shud be :)
The first and second soloist were great. The second sound a teensie bit nervous but i have sang this plenty of times and understand how demanding it can be. Job well done. Your choir also sounded very good, the dynamics and clarity of certain words were remarkable. More consonants though! I enjoyed it.
My choir is auditioning soloists for this tomorrow! I am like uber nervous right now it's not even funny! That, and the fact that we're a junior high preforming this at a high school. Though we normally do highschool songs so that should be fine! I loved the seconed soloist in this song! so much emotion in her voice!
with the eighth notes in the beginning the with "I am a poor pilgrim" they are suppose to be swelled according to the music. besides that it was really good!
We have to sing this song.. its kinda boring but i love the feel of the song once you get into it, it sounds awesome but our soloist will never sound that good with all the emotion
mateo, try closing your eyes... if you just listen to the song, you might have a different opinion... well done kids!!!! i really like the univ of miami performance ( but i am a little biased) and the tawain youth choir from 2009... love this song!!! well done! kudos to the teach!
This teacher is amazing to have all these students at the same level of good music. She kept the soloists in good taste instead of changing it to a Mariah Carey "take"....they were both very well trained and exquisite.,,and so was the entire choir!
Okay, so I was really liking this video when the first soloist was singing, and I was really impressed with the choir overall, but when the second soloist started singing and got over her initial nervousness...wow. That was absolutely freaking amazing.
wow...my middle school choir did this too...but wow the second soloist showed emotion and got into it...wow!! i was the second soloist too...but i think she did better WAY better than me!! wow!! i can't get over how amazing a singer she is...
Wow. This is incredible. I sang this with my regional honors choir and we were ok, but this was superb, especially for a highschool choir. The tempo was just right for the slow, surge style. 3:28 Wow. sing it girl! why wer you so shy before? The first soloist was incredible as well, but woo-ee, theat final "MY HOME" breathtaking. sorrowful. WELL DONE!!!!
I sang this song my freshman year of highschool and that was about 6 years ago...i must say that of all the recordings there are of this on youtube this one is by far the best one. The soloists are simply amazing...i got goosebumps...this was one of my favorite songs...besides All my Moses Hogan favorites. Great Job! This is an awesome Choir! Keep it up. :)
This is one of the better performances of this song that I've seen on YouTube, but including the drummer was a wrong decision on someone's part. Great soloists, unlike some of the other performances I watched. Well done!
i might be sounding a bit big headed for this one, but i dont care. i think our chorus is one of the best high school programs... mrs.copley really knows what she's doing and i love her for it!
Oh my gosh! I noticed that you have sung this piece along with My Souls Been Anchored...That IS my favorite...well one of the many favorite Moses Hogan pieces that i have. But these 2 songs are definatly on my top list. They are pretty much amazing
no im not def. some of the kids need to open their mouths more and we need to get more air and she wanted to show us what it souded like and she found this.
you guys were good. I liked the soloists. they had great voices! my chorus is singing this song in our next concert and she found it on here to help us so thanks for posting it!
Why didn't they have the second girl sing the whole thing? She was fantastic!
