That one guy is my favorite. Don't act like you don't know who I'm talking about.
I looked for him in the more recent vids and sadly...he was absent. The campiness is gone. :'(
It took me less than ten seconds to find exactly who you were talking about
The wink slayed me!
That chord at 0:52-0:58 is so frigging solid you could build a house on it. Goosebumps every time I hear that intro. Every time I watch this entire performance, I shake my head and guffaw out an expletive when it finishes. Unbelievable.
guibox3 I do the same thing. Locked up tighter than a cats ass in heat
This makes me think what Carolina Crown from Drum Corps International would sound like if they were doing this instead. Holy held chord! Amazing!
I make that comparison too. I tell my instrumentalist 'shopper friends that Barbershop chorus is the equivalent of vocal DCI
@@KyleHottel yep
The contest was won in the first minute.
The contest was won before their ballad was even over... this opening just secured it. 😊😎
Their passion is ELECTRIC, this is so awesome! :D.
***** I think it's a Mardi Gras medley? I might be wrong, though.
I like the guy who does the first flip at 0:20 the best haha. He's so expressive for the entire thing
I never get tired of this.
Some of the best moments of my musical life were spent on the stage with these fantastic singers. I'm grateful to have the wonderful style of Barbershop as a part of my life.
It's been nearly two years since I last saw this! WOW! This makes me feel so happy!
What does it mean?
I've commented on this like 3 times the last 2 years and I have to comment again. Still one of the best performances I've seen and my favorite. The intro is enough to blow your mind, never mind the rest. Awesome, awesome,awesome!
These guys are off scale...the future of barbershop choir singing is in good hands.
That chord change from :49-:53 is insanity. I just burst out laughing when I saw that, from the sheer joy of it - especially after all the changes leading into it.
The whole thing, just insanely good. But that moment totally floored me.
This chorus is WORLD CLASS all the WAY!! Congratulations again Guys!! It was amazing to see this live, and the ballad was also artistry at it's finest!!!
@0:32 That sustained chord they hold for forever, which turns into about 4 chords, gave me HUGE chills - and the choreography with it looks so cool. AMAZING job!
I've have been a member in S. P. E. B. S. Q. S. A. before. This is a remarkably young chorus. Most of the Barbershop members now are like 70. I'm 44, but I'm a young 44. I wish I had a chorus like this to sing with
@RonRizzy I hear you. Nothing would make me happier than to see more young blood in the Society.
I'm sure there are Angels in heaven who sings like that
It doesn't matter how many times I watch this video. I just cannot wipe the silly, crap-eating grin off my face or stop getting chills and goosebumps from 0:38- 1:08. I am teaching 4 choirs this year in my school and I guarantee this is going to be at the top of my list to show them about sound and performance.
OH MY GAWD THE CHORDS IN THE INTRO HOLY CRAP.That augmented 6 chord at 4:11 is GOLD (i believe its an It+6)
***** It's just a 7th chord with a weird voicing. It's a G7 (in the key of B major) with the bass on the 3rd, baritone on the 7th a tritone above, the lead on the root a step above that, and the tenor on the 5th a 5th above the lead.
.....that's an augmented 6 chord. Ger+6 to be specific. The only difference between It+6 chord and Ger+6 is one note. Ger+6 in the key of B is G7.... It+6 in the key of B is G7 without the 5th (D). So yeah. Still an Augmented 6.
***** If it helps, the chord is written B, E#, G, D in the key of B. Then it just resolves to a B chord with the Baritones jumping up to the B octave and the leads sliding down a half note. That's what it is in the sheet music, I don't know enough about theory to say what that is. I just know it was one of my favorite chords to sing!
G7. Then its a German +6 chord in B
Agh, I can't even deal. This is superb, magnificent, mind blowing, and even eargasmic (lol what?)... I've gotten chills multiple times. If I was there in the front row I would've fainted.
2:44 - 2:52 That bass solo gives me chills everrtime
That chord change at :53 is really awesome, and the choreography really brings it out.
They are so happy, it's wonderful! :D.
A man named Aaron Dale. The man is blessed with talent.
Watch it regularly and it never gets old!
One of the finest performances ever...fabulous...what a sound! Relentless!
the post...good god the post, it was BEAUTIFUL!!
My god that was one of the best things I've ever seen and heard!
hells yea; i know most of these guys don't come from Westminster; but to know they represent my city; just crazy to think about.........
Joindre l'exercice phonique à l'exercice physique, l'expression vocale et l'expression corporelle, c'est l'exploit que réalise cette chorale d'hommes
Excellent exercice pour griller quelques calories après les fêtes...
This is easily my favorite chorus performance ever.
@Esandcircle01 No kidding. I giggle every time I watch from 0:50-0:53. Nowhere will you hear or see cooler dynamics simultaneously than in barbershop choruses.
Vive le Mardi Gras!!!! And long live the Westminster Chorus, 2-time International Chorus Champions!!!! Superbe!
Seriously just blew my mind.
and then came the chills...
The final stomp was in perfect sync. Just one massive BOOM!
I just keep watching this. WOW!
Fantastic discipline and hellishly good breath control all round.
So many shivers every time I watch this :). Wish I could hear them live!
@TRPDDB hang on there. they weren't all "old" songs then, and songs had a longer shelf life than now, if only because it took longer for them to become as widely known. the concept is 4-part close harmony, unit sound, and arrangements (on paper or spontaneous, ie: woodshedding), with some chords that ring - you can try applying it to songs old and new. I'm trying to get some woodshedding going during the Quartets segment of our Tuesday night chorus rehearsals. Woodshedding is way cool.
Guys....just amazing. When working on choreography....our coaches always used to say, "if I close my eyes....I want it to sound like you aren't doing choreography." Well, you pulled it off. Amazingly brilliant. Look forward to more of that in the future.
@BlackLotus1786 The Westminster chorus performed "Lux Arumque" which has extremely difficult harmonies that most choirs cannot achieve, and that really keeps them on their toes musically.
Fun fact. While this didn’t outscore in performance. This actually got more points than ambassadors of Harmonys 76 trombones
WOW. Simply amazing. So together, such a clean sound. And as cool as the long intro was, those last three chords show you at your best - the sound just explodes!
Great Actions..... Super Sound...... Wonderful Chorus
I love Patrick Haedtler's energy. Honestly so great like the whole chorus!
amazing!!!! Congratulations from Brazil !!!
You know you're good when you can put the tag at the beginning of the song.
FINALLY!!!!!
I love my brothers in the chorus.
I really love this kind of music!!
damn! what a solid smooth sound as a fellow competitor i can relate to all the long hours and work that goes into this art form. WELL DONE WESTMINSTER
Absolutely LOVED this!
Man are they good!!!!
BEAUTIFUL!
the countertenor section knocked my socks off
To edwards21416 You can bet there are guys in this chorus who were public school boys. The Barbershop Harmony Society it loaded with boys and men from every walk of life. There isn't a chorus in the society who wouldn't welcome a young singer from any school with open arms. What you're seeing here is the cream of the cream of the crop. These guys got here by virtue of ability and above all hard work and dedication. But anyone who loves singing and performing can find a place in the society.
@Protomagi Again, there are different schools of thought on the subject, but my professors teach that someone with a practiced falsetto is called male alto or soprano, or a "falsettist", and countertenors are the men with vocal abnormalities.
Absolutely Amazing....
Flat out amazing...love this!
This is AMAZING! I am really blown away!
What an amazing intro! Wow!
3:57 is the best tag i’ve ever listened to by a lot
WOW!!! WOW!!! WOW!!! I LOST MY WORDS!!! GOD! HELP!!!!
amazingly inspiring and near perfect. Stunning performance guys! Keep up the good work!
EVERY TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wow. just....wow.
@egraber61 Type in, Westminster Chorus It Only Takes A Moment. You'll find they do "stand and deliver" quite well.
@Icyveins906 note that Toronto Northern Lights have repeatedly medalled, yet have one of the smallest choruses around.
Zayumm thanks for showing us this Shelly
Your the tops!
that choreo modulation omg I wish it sounded like that when I did the wave
Brothers don't shake hands. Brothers gotta hug!
MERAVIGLIOSI!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes! Look at us go!
I agree, I'm naturally a bass, but as needs must, I sing tenor with my quartet, and even though I can hit the notes in falsetto, our voices lock and ring much better when we key the songs down and I can do it in my full-voice!
Yep, he's directing both Westminster and Masters of Harmony
@edwards21416 I don't have the hard numbers, but seeing as I went to public school and sing in Westminster I can attest that at least one of us didn't go to private school. In fact, most of us went to public school. That's how we recruited each other...by calling up our friends from high school or college, etc...
Dat flawless stomp...wow.
Your 'falsettist' may use their falsetto, but so does a countertenor, a male soprano or treble (as has been noted before) use their natural 'full voice' to sing soprano and alto parts. Check out ensembles like Chanticleer, or The Sixteen, or the King's Singers, their countertenors use falsetto. Barbershop tenors are like this too, they sing most of the part in their full- or head-voice, but use falsetto to supplement the upper register.
well it's about time!
bravo bravo encore encore
brilliant
How does this only have only a quarter million views?
this is amazing!!!
fantastic!!!!!
gosh. i'd so love to get a copy of the score...
@TenorJOE I do, but that still doesn't say I'm incorrect to say the international big-five don't sing on basically the same level. That can vary 6 points on a day to day basis, so everyone must have been in pique condition. How dry the air is, how well you warmed up and hydrated, and how correctly you're voiced on any given day can change. Still, I wanna see you guys beat MOH before I say you're THEE best. They haven't lost since their streak started, unlike VM.
Who's the guy with the spikey blonde hair in the front row who consistently makes the most hilarious gestures ever?
@darklordsexypants (continued) So, what looks "exaggerated" to us looks perfectly normal to those at a farther distance. That is the goal, and that's one of the reasons why Westminster's presentation scores were through the roof on this song.
Happy Barbershopping :)
thanks!
@frankvdg Check out their choir of the world sets, it's the same precision singing without so much of the jumping about. Seems like something you'd enjoy.
4:42 is exactly as long as barbershop singing is entertaining! nicely timed
@piercewise1 yes I definitely like that one :), also their great day video is one of my favourites.
it is like a fountain!
@BlackLotus1786 Yup. Anyone who says that music can teach him/her nothing is a fool. All music can teach you a new skill. Classical music requires a lot of use of the soft palette and operatic production while jazz can focus the front. Asian throat singing makes you really fine-tune your resonant space. All of this together can turn a vocalist into a flexible machine. The last one doesn't apply to these guys, but it helped me.
@licencedtospill thats barbershop for you -.- gimmicks are the staple of barbershop singers and have been for years
How on earth can all of them do that 30 sec float in the intro?!? WOW.
@Runnadaroad The barbershop name for it is, I believe, "chord worshiping".
Love it!
@supersingerevan You may be confusing a countertenor with a male alto or soprano...or even a castrato (I certainly hope not). Countertenors generally do not have any vocal abnormalities, and simply have a practiced and reinforced falsetto via their 'chest voice.' If you're referring to Oberlin, he's akin to a male soprano I mentioned above, or someone like Maniaci, whose larynx never fully developed.
You know they did above par when you're sitting in front of your desktop/laptop clapping for them like a mad man at the end.
