Wheaton College Men's Glee Club - What Wondrous Love

The Wheaton Men's Glee Club 100th Anniversary Concert performing the hymn What Wondrous Love. (Taped on my digital camera, so the video isn't the best, but the sound gives you a taste of how good it was).

superb!!

[SamWiseGingy]

Requiring human blood sacrifice is loving? Cursing the earth in anger over man's disobedience is loving?(Genesis 3) Burdening humanity with fear and guilt is not loving. Permitting slavery and patriarchy is not loving. Standing back in silence in the face of human atrocity is not loving.

What wondrous love indeed.

But if you're singing sacred harp, that's how its done. This music is supposed to follow the Appalachian tradition, not the Received-Pronunciation English one. And I think these guys understood that. That style of singing gives a kind of honest power to the raw harmonies that give shape-note its characteristic haunting sound.

Thanks for posting. Good for the soul of this Old Man.

My brother sang in this ensemble, but from years '01-'05. He always told me about the great times and great music that he had in the Glee Club.

Great performance here!
