all the more reason to sound better than this

wow, the basses were a half step sharp on the second half of the word "the" at 0:36 it almost sounds like they think they are singing the right note, like maybe they just learned it wrong. other than that, good sound.

what year was this? i sang with the TSU choir in 97-99. we didn't wear the robes then. Dr. Nettles was the director then too. he's fabulous.

This choir has a MAJOR pitch problem.

Good sounding choir, but they sing it much to fast. There is a thin line between exciting and frantic, and they crossed it.

Very mature sound, sounds like a great choir :)

My high school Choir did this song and it was so hard, but you guys did very well.

Be careful of the "runaway train" effect. My college choral director used to talk about how easy it is to speed up a song like this, then it starts to sound frantic. The director sets the tempo- the choir should follow. Those "er's" were killing me but there were SOME good points in this performance. Hogan's pieces are definitely hard to sing & require full use of range & technique...& beyond! I once had the pleasure of working w/him at a choral festival. What an extraordinary talent he was!

I love that High C, my girlfriend is a soprano and when we preformed it got a little to excited went from the C to a D. That was interesting

[ZinnermanS72]

Good job! Can't hear the Bass section and they are just a little flat..the Alto's are the stronger section which is a problem in any choir. all should be balanced and sound as "one". But in short any Moses Hogan piece dared to be sang warrants a huge applause! They can be very difficult to sing and direct.

the basses need to get together and work on there notes...but yall are still good...team work basses
