@AndiEmme1  not if a distinct tempo is written in the score, which (in the copy I am holding in my hand as I type this) it is. and for some reason (idk call me crazy) this doesn't sound like a tempo of 60 beats per minute...

[AndiEmme1]

It's not really fair to say it's "too fast". The tempo is up to the director's interpretation. It may have been performed faster than you've heard it before, but it's her artistic choice. It's not better or worse, just different.

when my choir sang it, half of the guys cried during the song.

more like WAY too fast :P but yeah I agree, I still haven't found a more emotional version than the one on your channel its my favorite rendition of this song ever! :D

El Dr Stroope anota "Passionate and Expansive" a 60 negras por minuto. Esta interpretacion es muy interesante. A esta velocidad las tres partes de la pieza encajan mejor como una unidad, y aporta a la apreciacion de la obra.

Director looks like she's about to have a heart attack :P never heard this in TTBB arrangment before - I like it :)

[Varjele]

too fast, not enough emotion and sounds a bit too robotic for my liking. Good job for high school though

[TakeHisKite]

true, but I have visited the area that he was from, and they used "thi"

[paolenna]

Yes, I'm Mexican and I know that "c" and "z" are pronounced like "th". The "s", though, sounds more like a "sh".

I find that the a cappella version sounds better. Anyhow, great performance.

My school's choir sang this in the World Choir Games in Graz last year.
