"Beautiful Savior" - Rendezvous Quartet warmup

As some of you may know. Rendezvous is on a hiatus from Winter 2011 until late 2012. This is some warmup footage from a church service we did during our last week together in November. "Beautiful Savior" is a really nice yet challenging tune. It's one of the new ones in our repertoire so we're still ironing out the kinks :)

Danny Fong - tenor
Brodie Cuff - lead
Andrew Kesler - baritone
Rob McLaren - bass

Special thanks to Josh Chevalier (aka Bordonthestreet) for filming this video while he was visiting!

The reason for such sporadic uploads is that Rendezvous is currently split between Toronto and Saskatoon so we don't get to see eachother very often. Also, come February 2012 our lead Brodie Cuff will be on a cruise-ship contract for 6 months. So until next time, happy singing everyone, and we hope to be working on new songs and arrangements later this year!

gay for jebus!

[AndrewKesler]

@DiVeronica pardon?

[DiVeronica]

@AndrewKesler What's up with the poppies?

[AndrewKesler]

@DiVeronica It's how we honour our war veteran's on Memorial Day (Nov. 11). Around this time, everyone wears poppies on their shirts or jackets.

[mikkeljuelgregersen]

You should do Veni, veni Emmanuel - you'd nail it!

[AndrewKesler]

@mikkeljuelgregersen Haha that's also in our repertoire! Great tune!

[trudbol]

It's always a pleasure to hear you guys sing together, you've really got a tight blend and a nice flow.

I kindly request that you place the camera more in the center and closer to lead & bass next time, I hear Danny a lot more than everyone else, not that I mind, but I don't think that's how you balanced the voices. ;-)

[BarbeeAnne]

A pleasure, as always, to hear you guys sing.

[bordonthestreet]

Killer!

[ssnarashi]

How about Still, Still, Still? I would love to hear that from you. You remind me of the Lettermen. :)

[DiVeronica]

@AndrewKesler Huzzah!

[annemette1989]

Love, love, love the end..! ;D

[Dutchhomepage]

I also liked this one, but I would make the whole piece modest, also the end.

[mikkeljuelgregersen]

@AndrewKesler Indeed, one of the most beautiful melodies, I've ever heard. Have you recorded it?

[Tricheystudios]

Great job as always! Just out of curiosity, is this in the original key? I know Vocal Spectrum does it a half step higher than you guys did.

[AndrewKesler]

@jibcraip shoot! our secret's out!

[frauleinvero]

Needs more German. 

[badman620]

Is their gonna be some sort of representation of your quartet this year at International?

Perhaps with a another lead?

[sheislove23]

This is tremendously wonderful. :)

[ThePianoShack]

Incredible performance! Wow, loved this!!!!!!

[AndrewKesler]

@mach037 I believe it's Tom Gentry's arrangement that I transcribed a few years back.

[Rayvontae]

AWESOME!!!

[AnackhsunamUn]

Amazing!! Love it :)

[EmmaInCandyland]

[jibcraip]

It was great !!! You guys blend very well =) (thanks to autotune....lol)

[supersingerevan]
