    I love how loud the Alto part is! They sound so confident, and they sound very gorgeous. In my choir, they tend to be overpowered since we are a very small choir and they're pretty shy. Ty for sharing.

    I'm in choir, and my choir teacher taught me and my class this song. In my opinion this is the best one we've learned so far. And hearing how it's supposed to sound and hearing the whole song, I can say that this song is amazing.

    I’m about to sing this in my 8th grade honors choir concert. I don’t think we can sing this as good, but I love this piece! It gives me chills each time I hear it.

    Sounds pretty good, but their cutoffs need to be cleaner, especially the consonants like "s" and "t." Not trying to hate, I still think this version is pretty well done, just giving constructive criticism.

    By any chance is this an SAB arrangement, because being a tenor, I hear a concerning lack of my vocal part. It sounds amazing, I'm just curious

    • @Tyrone5079
      @Tyrone5079 5 років тому +4

      Yes, it's an SAB. Thankfully the bass part isn't all that low. I'm one of 2 tenors in my small choir of like 12 people, and it works fine for us when we just put me and the other tenor with the basses.

    • @smittytuff
      @smittytuff 5 років тому

      @@Tyrone5079 I figured such. My choir is relatively large, and we have a prominent tenor section so I guess it was weird to not hear it definitively in this. We are singing this piece currently, but as SATB, and I was very taken back by the missing part

    • @colinf3963

      Same as a bass. They sung the first line and I was caught off guard by the different arrangement.

    • @dyedshirt3206
      @dyedshirt3206 4 роки тому

      yes, this is sab. the baritones in my middle school choir managed to pull off singing it (with only 3 mistakes), while my teacher just lumped the 2 tenors we had with the altos
      edit: this can be satb too but ig mostly middle school choirs sing this lol

    tip: try making the vowels sound taller and more "british", not only will it help you sing higher notes but it will also just generally sound a bit better

  • @epidemix6320
    @epidemix6320 2 роки тому +3

    The main things that caught my attention was how prominent and held out the “s” sounds were, and it’s pretty distracting. The students are also moving around a lot, something that my teacher would give you a lot of crap about lmao. I would also suggest building on the confidence and loudness of the men, as I can barely hear them over the female parts. But overall, pretty good!

    Why do only middle school choirs sing this???

    • @dyedshirt3206
      @dyedshirt3206 4 роки тому +2

      probably because it's a relatively easy song to sing, especially for sopranos/altos because the notes don't go very high or low. the baritone part also doesn't have very low (or high) notes for that range so it won't sound terrible with the changing voices of pubescent 12-14 year olds
