christopher tin is my choral crush
no, he's ours, too.
Me too !
I was at the world premier of this piece at Carnegie Hall a few years back. It is still to this day, the greatest performance I've ever attended.
Artonio s
@@moonlightbunny22 he’s not
Love the conductor silently screaming the last BER with em
Silently??? :-)
@@tompw3141 you think he actually sang/shout? honestly dont know, never saw a conductor sing along loudly
@@brooktewolde5775 I've known conductors sing choral parts, yes:-)
Well, the conductor is also the author of this piece, so it probably means something to him. He is singing with them almost the whole time.
@@Wesley_Peter_Redmond im happy if he feels so deep that he sings, his shout his own music! Frenetic, happy music!
Thank you so much for introducing me to this piece. Been swimming in it for 2 days now.
That man*s voice! ... Go look at the Angel City Chorale's participation in America's got talent ... He is magnificent! They all are.
Never heard anything as amazing as this...ever
This song is about calling the rain and it’s actually raining right now where I am
The "chef's kiss" part ❤ 👌
That was stunning!
This beautiful lady
Title; can't watch this without smiling
Me ;Bawling🥹🥹🥹✨️✨️✨️💐💐💐
Goosebumps!!
Marvellous song !!
Sometimes I forget how beautiful human beings can be when they come together. ❤
You echoed my thoughts exactly.
Yup. Co-operation over competition - encore!
@@MazzaEliLi7406 Yes, encore!
@@MazzaEliLi7406
Yes indeed! Beautiful.
That’s the power of music
From “big” to “absolutely humongous” love it
honestly, that's what made me smile
Those were the kinds of directions I loved seeing back when I was a choral member. It gave such life to the piece from the composer
Well yea she's a bigger girl. But fat shaming is not okay.
@@PyfeTweesenHuh? They're talking about the directions on the sheet of music.
this mans voice.. it is an angels voice, I can't help but smile with teary eyes, so much power in his voice.
Yes! OMG even your comment makes me well up. It’s just pure joy!!!
Your comment made me cry as well! So much emotion in this piece but his voice sends chills up my spine!
beautiful
that is so lovely! I keep returning to this song@@dronelayer
You truly feel the joy and love through their voices, such an incredible thing to experience.
I have been going through a rough time. While trying to feel better, I realised that I mostly knew bands playing "dark" moody music. So, in a time where I have needed some powerful joyful music, this video appeared. Thank you so much for sharing!
I get what you mean. Dark music can be relatable but in our darkest moments, we need something joyful and uplifting to remind us of the beauty in life. I hope you feel better soon. 💛
@@LimewirePirate thank you for sharing good vibes 🙏
I’m an older lady, but i find the very best music is timeless. The only difference is HiFi Stereo-phonics and zero distortion played through wooden speakers holding tweeters, woofers and subwoofers. 3 1/2’ tall. Procal Harem, Yes, Moody Blues it gets you to a better place and late for school, because I was, and I was honest about it. FM; King Biscuit Flower Hour; or was it Flour? Any way it was nation wide. There is a saying, “music soothes the savage soul”. And this is how it works.☀️🌾🖖🏼
Absolute same. I regularly struggle with depressive episodes and at some point had lost all joy in music. Luckily I have regained that emotion since. Funnily enough. Happy music often makes me cry, but that really helps me connect with my feelings.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I wish you all the best my friend.
@@Benisuber1 Haha! Amazing! George's annotations on the sheet music are also fantastic!
This song is about calling the rain. I was singing this with my partner on the balcony one day and IT ACTUALLY STARTED RAINING! It was amazing. I want to sing this with my choir so badly.
Hey sorry but can you hold off on your rain singing magic please. I'm in the west and the floods are coming because of too much rain and snow
@@michaelbarker6460 my bad. ^_^ Be safe!
@@michaelbarker6460 Go on your balcony and sing "here comes the sun, little darling"
Hey, quick question. What language is that?
@@MeanGreenMotherFrom From what I could find it is in Lango, mainly spoken in South Sudan.
This is to be heard in headphones while flying, as the plane emerges from the storm and clouds, and you can see the sun in the distance through the window.
What a lovely comment ❤☮️
Flying kills the planet
You should try climbing a mountain when there's a sea of clouds. Emerging from those is even more pretty than your shitty metal tube of environmental destruction
@@letoatreides5165 Maybe. But relatively few have the opportunity and/or the ability to do that.
I love this on any sound system, and blasting it on a 7.1 is my fav
1:40 Always get goosebumps watching Jimmer Bolden singing his heart out (it's even more striking when you see his body language -behind the transcription).
YESSS YOU CAN TELL WHEN HE"S MODULATED BY LOOKING AT HIS BODY
@@confushisushi what is this song called?
@@kaylaherrera4544 If you look up Christopher Tin it's there, but just as he links the full vid in this description it's "Waloyo Yamoni"
Yeah, he went from this bright trumpet to the biggest baddest trombone around. I’m sure he felt it in his whole body, all the resonance freely ringing.
Hey how are you doing now
The mutual smile between conductor and singer/musician is such a deep joy. You can almost see their thoughts.
Yes, almost. But you can't see them.
😢😂😅t😢😢4
Christopher Tin also wrote the themes for the Civilization video games, and all of the themes are really epic. The theme for Civilization IV, "Baba Yetu", has The Lord's Prayer in Kiswahili for its lyrics, and was also the first video game soundtrack to win a Grammy. Really impressive composer all around
My gamer symphony orchestra performed Baba Yetu, and because of illness, I had to step in at the last minute to be the soloist for it. I've been singing in church choirs for nearly 40 years now and I've never had a piece move me as much as that did. Even when I performed it, I cried during the bridge, because I described the solo part during it as the closest thing to "the Spirit moving me". We did it a second time with the original soloist doing his part and both I and the alto soloist got even MORE emotional from it. That song just has a power to it that I can't put into words.
Couldn't agree more... powerful and uplifting. Thank you all involved. More...more...
Went to a university concert focused on video game music, it was great. Some Zelda I think, and others
@@pattyamato8758 There's a number of Gamer Symphony Orchestras/Video Game Orchestras around the world, some of which are college/university-oriented. I think the University of Maryland is one. But a number of others (like mine) are just community orchestras with non-professionals that get together out of their love for music and video games.
Thanks for the info, interesting facts!
0:12 This man's voice is incredible. I have chills everywhere.
Yes, you do! Everywhere!
For some reason, this really reminded me of the final scene from The Lion King, or just most ending scenes in Disney Movies. What a great piece of music.
`same, or something like the ending to black panther
I think it’s better.
Or after a really good bathroom break. Start bumping this shit after your bowels are cleared and it literally is the peak human experience 😁
@@michaelbarker6460 …do you kiss your mother with that mouth?
Part of the reasons that people like Disney films is that they have roots in great operas, Shakespeare, even Greek dramas. So, yes it does. Thanks for pointing that out
Just found this and I keep listening to it over and over again because of how beautiful it is. And Jimmer Bolden (the soloist), has _such_ a beautiful voice!
This immediately made me think of Baba Yetu from Civilization IV and lo and behold, same composer!
Incredible composition, and the passion Mr. Tin has while conducting is stunning. Look at him at 2:13!!
I had the exact same thought!
Bro same!
last but not least the sogno di volare from Civ VI
Goodness, taking me back 😂 I sang Baba Yetu for district, best year of my whole life
I am pretty sure they performed Baba Yetu at this very concert.
0:33 that percussionist just makes me so happy. The focus and the flourish. In those few seconds he gave me serotonin
0:17 Me when I see a bear.
This comment really isn’t getting its due.
🤣🤣🤣
It's 2 am, and you made me laugh out loud. It doesn't happen often 😂😂😂😂
I snort laughed at 12:28 am😂
should not have been this funny to me
Can we just take a second and talk about how AMAZING the male and female lead vocalists are. His voice going from so delicate and almost not audible to booming and so powerful and deep…and the lady whose powerful voice you can feel as you hear and see the power going into producing those notes. 👏😇💗❣️
The also soloist smiling and grooving at the awesomeness at 1:25 is what got me.
*alto (stupid autocorrect)
I agree! Also her expression, her chromaticism, her everything from 1:49 onwards. Brings tears to my eyes, this emotion.
@@kindnessasgreatasthesea1158 I totally agree
When someone tells you that you're just a singer and you're just in choir, you laugh and remember that the voice has this type of power and feeling that no other instrument has.
True music can be made with anything
@@mashyusliv Yep
I tried so hard..but smiled as I embraced the music. Like always.
You're weak...
same lol took it as a challenge and I failed at the end. something about funny notation and beautiful music overruled my willpower
I enjoyed the music but I found it quite easy not to smile - didn't even have to try.
@@mahlonrhoades4509 you're very cool for that good job
The contrast of him singing the more softer tines and then going up to eleven is just awe inspiring, of all of Christopher tins works, this one gets me the most enjoyment 🎉😊
He sings really good!! I smiled a bit! I do that rarely
Love you bae
@@MeepmannZ thanks man...i think microtonal music is really interesting
@@slowcuber_aze oh yeah!!!
JImmer Bolden's vocal technique is masterful.
I can only dream of conducting my future bands with the enthusiasm this conductor has
The conductor is the composer, Christopher Tin :)
Its very lovely how many conductors can express the song
1:05 That tenor lick was smooth, clean and rich
Magical sound
0:30 gives me chills. Hauntingly beautiful
the title is wrong. it should say
you can't watch this without crying and breaking out in goosebumps
0:07 I love how he pulls back! So elegant!
I’m smiling with tears and chills Thank you for posting
Voices of the 2 soloists combine beautifully! Very stirring performance by all!
Yes, by all.
I like when conductors act like they're part of the music. To me, it shows passion and enjoyment.
He's also the composer, so he truly is part of the music.
This performance is amazing. Yes, I am smiling. I love the African rhythm and his staccato singing. SO joyful. The choir and instrumentation were stellar.
So this soprano is absolutely fantastic! She is totally in for a team effort and carries the whole so beautifully. I hope to hear her in many demanding productions, she will not disappoint - she is so great!
She's an alto/mezzo, but otherwise agreed.
@@acelibrarianThanks a lot! She has an amazing range, then, and very soft, clear highest notes! Love her voice, and also her sweet smile! I should have rahter said she lifts the performance up!
Agreed- she's an operatic contralto.
She could probably sing tenor if she wanted. The highest notes she sings are mid-range for a soprano. Beautiful voice.
@@brandywineblogger1411 Wonderful voice, whatever range she sings, indeed! How much does her range overlap with the tenor's voice range in this composition - the notes shown varied between G-clave and F-clave and I got confused - please, help! Thanks in advance! 🎶🙂
@@DNA350ppm Even though I have a M.Mus. it was from the dark ages and has been a few years since I've conducted or have sung seriously.
The tenor and alto voices can share almost an octave depending on the singers, although not generally in formal octavo/ choral music. The difference is in the timbre or quality of the voices.
The voice is a magnificent instrument.
hoooooooooooooly wow
thats like
the most stunning orchestral performance ive ever seen
It absolutely warms my heart to see you feature this song!!! It's been such a fave of mine and you're right -- you can't not smile. Christopher Tin is a wizard and the soloists absolutely NAIL it.
Wow, this is absolutely amazing. Their voices are like silk and larger than life. I don’t even know what the words mean and I’m smiling. Thanks for posting ❤
man, the power of so many voices gets me every time 😌🥹
If we gonna have an anthem for earth, christopher tin definitely has to be the composer
0:25 It literally says “chef’s kiss” on the sheet music, love it😭💕
I've been feeling depressed. Thank you for this music. It ignited the embers of hope in my heart. I'll face tomorrow with a smile and courage.
The madman actually put *chefs kiss* with the notes. Absolute legends.
As only youtube can testify, I don’t know how many hundreds times i replay this whole 13 minutes magnificent performance
So proud of Jimmer Bolden and Allie McNay and our Angel City Chorale. Who knew that this would go viral when my group performed this in 2016
LOVE watching you conduct Sue...brilliant!!! Hugs from Canada!
Wow thanks
I mean...with this quality it shouldnt be THAT surprising that it goes viral :P
1:00 Waloyo, Waloyo...Beber, Beber (We overcome or overcame...It is well)! This has become my anthem.
Thank you for including the link to the original video where I could view the whole performance. The soloists, choir and orchestra are even more impressive! Also, I was curious about the lyrics, and the info with the original video provided the lyrics with an English translation, which was great. Also, from one of the comments I learned the language is spoken in Uganda, which I appreciated knowing.
Such a beautiful song; I am so glad to have experienced it through this performance!
A rain song that made my heart thunder and my eyes pour with sudden outbursts 😅of my own eye rain. Amazing.
I cried, is that what was supposed to happen?
1:11 noticed the vocal strength there😮 the clarity is top notch! I can easily listen to it every day.
Why does he go quiet towards the end?
I don't remember when it happened but at one point I felt genuinely proud of humanity.
Could someone please tell me what they are singing? So joyous and uplifting!!
That sounded really nice though but you could tell the two soloists and the conductor absolutely loved their jobs lol
I still listen to this even in 2024 September , any one that understands music must know that this is perfect
My school's top ensembles just performed this a few weeks ago, one of my friends being the vocal soloist, was one of the best performances I've ever been to
What piece is it?
@@M_SC it's called "Waloyo Yamoni" by Christopher Tin. there's a link to the original video in the description.
This did not make me smile, it made me all emotional and now im crying in my room, its just so beautiful
Angel City Chorale will be performing Baba Yetu and Sogno di Volare this June in LA on their concert, everyone is welcome to come🙂
It’s also going to be live-streamed on yt for anyone who’s not able to come, but still wants to see it
A black guy, a japenese guy and a white woman walk into an opera...
And perform live magic! 🫶🏼
Also can't watch this without getting goosebumps.
The directions on the tail end of the score:
"ABSOLUTELY HUMONGOUS!"
Gotta love it!
i smiled but like i also broke down crying???
music is amazing
Not smiling, but definitely feeling. I'm not usually into this style of music but this is so powerful.
I didn't smile either!
I've actually cried, such beautiful music never fails to make me emotional
I've been kind of obsessed with this since first watch, so incessant smiling for days. Thanks for these clips that even non-music savvy people such as myself can still enjoy and get a peek into various corners we may not even know to look.
Plus, even if i can't read the music itself, I always love your little annotations!
I just love this, the singer, and words. I love African music. One can connect with it as Africa is the Seat of Civilization. All people come from there and we all have some measure of African genes in us. Proud of the little I have. 😊
It's true! It warmed my heart and I was grinning... with a tear in my eye too ❤ (And I don't even know what this was. But I'm so glad I listened.)
I’m so impressed by the sheer power in jimmer boldens voice @ 1:13 blew me the fuck away
This did give me spmething to rest upon after a hard past weeks
Oh brother I feel that
Never forget in the coming of Jesus Christ we will sing the song of moses😢
didn't smile but goddamn the goosebumps
I could have listened to just him singing the entire thing solo. Such a beautiful voice.
Imagine playing this and seeing “ABSOLUTELY HUMONGOUS” on your sheet music and pulling a muscle trying to make it as humongous as possible
I once got an eagle while golfing. This was the music playing in my head.
Beautiful music. Beautiful voices. Beautiful people. So magnificent.
How did the female singer not get the pronounciation of "Alech" down like all the other singers did? On a high note: I like that she was getting jiggy with it tho.
HE FINALLY DID IT THE MAD MAN THE FULL VID IS MY FAVOURITE ON ALL OF UA-cam AND HAS BEEN FOR MONTHS NOW THANK YOU GEORGE THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
I have never heard this before but i was smiling in seconds. This is delightful! Absolutely beautiful. will need to look up other pieces by this composer. Great performance
Christopher Tin is an absolute legend! His masterness of the chorale technique is quite impeccable. One of his best along with Baba Yetu.
It’s uplifting. I always find myself feeling hopeful when I hear this
أجمل ما صنع الله في هذا العالم هو الموسيقي.. الموسيقي بتجمع بين كل البشر لا تفرق بين نوع أو لون بشرة او دين او عرق او جنسية..
-2 رمضان 1445/ 12 مارس 2024-
He has such a unique voice
There is something so powerful in choirs, i love them
I did smile, but I was so completely overwhelmed by the beauty of this piece that I cried. I want to sing this so badly!!! I keep restarting the video to hear the male soloist velvet and emotional vocals and his belt, ah!!
Can we block this in the UK. We have quite enough rain thank you.
😂
Oh my, this lifted me up this Sunday morning. My car is in the shop, so I can't get to Mass. Watched Mass on my tablet and then saw and heard this wonderfulness!!!! Happy Advent to all. He is coming to save us. Amen.
Such joy. Such emotion. Outstanding.
Banger of a song
Edit: I felt deja vu for how I felt about this song and realized I get this feeling for Kokia's "I believe" live performances. Awe? Happiness? Somewhere in between.
Waloyo Yamoni - 'We Overcome the Wind'
(inspired by rain)
Sung in Lango
From a rainmaking litany.
Waloyo yamoni. (Waloyo.)
Wan wamito kot ochwe, oony akirok chutok
Oami! In, kot, alami ichwe. Ka i chwe, beber.
Ka monwa olelo (ber)
Ka atino oleo (ber)
Ka awobi owero (ber)
Ka adwong olelo (ber)
Eryamita ka jigi jigi.
Eryam, alech alelech.
Ka kot adok Burutok
Ka yamo adok Burutok
Ilech i dula.
Kalwa opong dero.
•••
We overcome this wind. (We overcome.)
We desire the rain to fall, that it be poured in showers
quickly.
Ah! Thou rain, I adjure thee fall. If thou rainest, it
is well.
If our women rejoice (it is well)
If the children rejoice (it is well)
If the young men sing (it is well)
If the aged rejoice (it is well)
A drizzling confusion.
Confusion, a torrent in flow.
If the rain veers to the south
If the wind veers to the south
An overflowing in the granary.
May our grain fill the granaries.
[Translation by J. H.]
Thank you so so so so so so much for introducing me to this PHENOMENAL performance!!!!
In the 90s every Disney Movie had such a wonderful BANGER!!!
Thanks so much for featuring this clip, George! Unlike the viral short, it features the differing dynamics and transitions that occur through the entire piece that make it so exciting! Jimmer B
Nice. If you like orchestral tracks, let me know what you think of the first track of this obscure Disney World album they used to use in 2000 to do their in park fireworks shows. (P.S. the best part is toward the end of the track so make sure you hang in there): ua-cam.com/video/lci0wj7gxRQ/v-deo.html
