did you make a MIDI file of it? or any other digital note form?

@catman72 Ummm I don't think so... I'm not sure how to do that.  Any particular reason?

[maestrodimusic09]

Hey cool thanks DerOberstKrieger! Our soprano 1 was ridiculously ill but still kicked butt. Check out my other videos of a choir we put together on our own. While there may be issues with the admin - the passion and drive of students can be pretty powerful. Check them out!

Now I'm considering going to this college just to try to get into this octet.

You guys are amazing. How is the general choir?`

[maestrodimusic09]

@DerOberstKrieger Hey cool! Thanks! Well I will say generally the musicians that come out of UNI are some of the strongest I've ever met (and thats not my UNI bias speaking). The story is that we had a fantastic chamber choir and then some upsets happened at the university with budgets and what not so we were canceled. (boooo) SO we decided to have our other choir director start a small chamber group out of our large top ensemble and this is what happened :)

@DerOberstKrieger Oh wow thank you! Also our Soprano 1 was like unbelievably ill that night - she's a trooper! The chamber group at UNI has had some hicups in the past couple of years but this group as far as I know still exists (I just graduated so I'm out of the loop on that..) you can email to find out though dyan.meyer@uni.edu

We're a little pitchy but we only had like five 25 minute rehearsals on this one - pretty good I'd say
