      When I was in middle school, my choir got criticism too. It helps you learn how to be a better musician. They are performers, so they should be used to it. People can’t sugar coat everything all the time. Telling them to blend better is going to help them be better next time.

    I much prefer this to the smooth, overly produced Pentatonix cover version. These girls obviously worked very hard to master singing while doing the movements. They are kids and not professional so good job!!! And way to go Fleet Foxes for creating this piece of whimsy.

      @@carolineguzman6741, well, obviously he didn't fix the problem. Sometimes directors miss things that others catch, and sometimes they have to prioritize certain aspects of a performance over others. Also, people don't have to give you praise every time they correct a mistake you made. As a performer, you learn that critism is to help you, not hurt your feelings. It isn't like people are coming at them and saying they sound absolutely terrible and have no talent. People said work on tone and synchronization. That isn't mean. Why would that hurt their feelings?

    1. Someone singing this to their kid before bedtime, and, the next day, the kid saying he had a nightmare about it.
    2. Someone telling a shrink about having nightmares about the song, and the shrink telling him he's been listening to it too many times, and he's losing his head.

      they weren't ready for this song, not saying that Middle School choirs can't be good enough to sing this properly but this choir definitely wasn't ready for winter white hymnal. Honestly the director is only harming these girls by giving them a super hard song like this. It won't help them improve it'll just make them struggle and learn things the wrong way. I don't know why he had them doing the hand claps either, it just distracted them. They might have been better if they were able to focus on the actual singing

      I understand what you guys are saying. They do need to blend their voices, and since there going through puberty, it's hard to do that. As a girl who goes to the rated best music school in the tri state area( I'm in middle school btw) its easy for me to do it, because I've been practicing since I was in 1st grade. For them it might not be. I think that their doing good for what they were handed, and I think they, with practice, can get a whole lot better

    Pretty dresses, and what's nice is that those dresses work will all body types. My daughter's middle school never had uniform dresses, it was deemed too expensive and too hard to maintain. Only when she got to high school did they have matching outfits, and even in the first year only the select ensembles had matching outfits.
    The presentation was OK. I didn't mind the singing, but the clapping/finger snapping choreography should have been left out, or modified to something less complicated. The beginning was weird, I can only imagine that the kids were nervous and this was a way for the choir director to put them at ease. Even so, that is not something that I've ever seen in my daughter's middle school concerts, nor when I sang in middle school (junior high back then).
