  • I was in this choir!!! but I unfortunately didn't get the CD :( is there anyway i can get the CD from you if u have the CD?

  • i don't have it :( i wish i did. there are some neat songs on there.

  • my choir sang this piece in Prauge with a czeck choir. I personally am a bass and hitting those high notes were not easy. You gus made it sound so easy and smooth. my chior performed it once and we hit those notes clean but let's just say that after that piece we never wanted to sing it again. Our guys renamed coplands piece the promise of dying we didn't like singing it that much. Good choir, got any other recordings?

  • lol the promise of dying....clever...i have a few more..not that many..i have to dig the CD from some place.

see all

  • Back in1979 I was a member of The Texas All-State Choir and we performed this piece as well as Stomp Your Foot.

  • Oh i remember why the piano sounded wonky...there were two pianists playing on the same piano...anyone else remember that XD

  • Ah, we're doing this in our high school choir. Possibly the most beautiful thing our teacher has ever chosen.

  • @mrman7324

    Me too! I had a freakin blast.

  • considering, very weak towards the end, esp. sopranos. the high c lost almost all tone. everything else was pretty good. horrible accompinament though.

  • A few funky notes in the piano, but MAN, I wish I had sung that! I think "The Promise of Living" would complete my trio of Most Soul-Lifting (Semi-Modern) Choral Works (the first two being, in order, "O Magnum Mysterium" and "Pilgrim's Hymn").

    Well done, guys.

  • That's the temple its suppose to go I have heard many perform it at that temple including my college choir so yeah its not suppose to be that slow its suppose to be rejocyful it will drag if it was any slower and we did that for the phrasing and breathing properly

  • woo i was in this!

  • too fast...but thats the conductor..not the choir.. GJ

  • Lol I had entierly forgotten about Zadok the Priest
