I just sang this with a small Womens ensemble and the four 2nd altos out of 20 voices were so rich I got many many compliments on the song and that part! <3
This is beautiful. We sang this in my senior year at SRHS for one of our concerts and for district festival, but it didn't sound nearly as rich as this. Michelle and I were both singing soprano I and we tried our best not to overpower the other sections, but we could only do so much. Except for like two or three others, the rest of the choir was mostly freshmen and sophomores, with a few juniors. This sounds like the recording we listened to when we first got our music!

they should open their throats a bit more to give themselves a more mature sound. the song should also be slowed down a bit. but other than that its beautiful
the men in our concert choir sang this song for large group contest and they sounded amazing! this group also sounds very good i love this song :) i really like the part where it sounds like they're singing in a round, it's so pretty <3
i hope u don't mind me asking, but what happened to katelynn moore?
@lunaria94: Thanks - I've been interested in hearing the men's version of this song. Katelynn was a member of this ensemble who passed away in November of 2007 from meningitis.
I love Rebecca Tyree. She and my choir director in HS were best friends, so I worked with her often. She's so talented; great direction and great sound! I'd expect nothing less from VCU :P
This was well done. The blend between sections was great. Vowel shape was incredible and movement through phrasing with dynamics is amazing! I would suggest "She weeps over Rahoon" for this girls choir. I will send a message with the exact information of the song.
Wow! beautiful control girls...I too am singing this in my female ensemble and it always makes me cry. Just beautiful, you should be so proud of yourselves.
wow, this was absolutely beautiful. I am in a freshmen women's only choir and we are performing this song for contest this semester. I lov this song, its truly moving and beautiful. especially when sung with as much talent and emotion as you all did.
one thing i noticed when we started this piece is that in a few spots the harmonies kind of clash, and shimmer and when i heard those spots in this video it gave me chills. and your canons were fantastic.
This is the best video I've head you girls did a beautiful song and it actually made me cry :'} We're singing this in my adv. choir and I wish I could show them this as a sort of "kick in the ass" if you will. Wonderfully done :]
I know, we had to try to hold back tears when we were singing this at a church . . .one of the girls who was in this choir passed away unexpectedly that November . . .we were TRYING to smile during this performance so we wouldn't cry!
I know how singing these types of songs can be so moving. My freshmen year one of our choir mates died in a car crash over the Christmas break. Randall Stroopes's "How Can I keep From Singing" was a definite tear jerker for everyone; even during a performance of the song at Carnegie Hall.You guys were poised and professional during your performance, and you sounded good.
i'm trying to convince our choir director to let us sing this song for our heritage festival in anaheim. It' is such a beautiful song and when the dynamics flow seamlessly it's such a beautiful piece.
we r singing this song in a guys chorus. even though none of them are in mens choirs on youtube, i think it sounds alot better with the mens chorus. its a relly delicate songgg
Woohoo, 2nd sopranos!!!
