  • Billings West High Meistersingers performing Z. Randall Stroope's masterpiece: Omnia Sol.
    Somewhere far from nowhere, I grew both strong and tall
    Longing to become, but knowing not the path at all!
    But the footprints of the winter melted to fields of spring;
    One last embrace before I cross the threshold: To life we sing!
    O stay your soul and leave my heart its song!
    O stay your hand; the journey may be long!
    And when we part, and sorrow cant be swayd.
    Remember when, and let your heart be staid.
    Omnia sol temperat,
    Absens in remota.
    Ama me fideliter,
    Fidem mean noto.
    Weave the dance and raise the chorus; grieve no more
    Through the strength of Orion, find refuge from the shore!
    Let courage be your oar, let passion be your sail;
    Wisdom and truth will guide your deep hearts yearning, though all travail!
    O stay your soul and leave my heart its song!
    O stay your hand; the journey may be long!
    And when we part, and sorrow cant be swayd
    Remember when, and let your heart be staid.
    Omnia sol temperat,
    Absens in remota.
    Ama me fideliter,
    Fidem mean noto.
    Omnia sol temperat, (Ah ah ah ah ah ma)
    And when we part, and sorrow cant be swayd
    Remember when
    Remember when
    And let your heart be staid Be staid.

    We sang this for my high school graduation... and it makes me cry like a baby every single time. This song is not only beautiful, but it holds so many wonderful memories for me :') This was the perfect way to end my last year of high school.

    We sang this at Large Ensemble Competition on the 15th. Before we performed, my choir teacher said, "When you sing this song, remember what you are singing about. This song is about the fact that every soul you encounter, you leave a piece of yourself in their heart. One day you will all grow up and move off to college and probably never see me again, but just remember that there will always be a part of your soul in my heart, and there will always be a part of my soul in your heart." And it made the song so much better and more emotional. When I got off the risers, my heart was beating a mile a minute and all I wanted to do is cry. This song is amazing, but it's 10x better if you feel it, not just sing it.

    My senior year of HS in 2014, my dad lost his battle to cancer. In his final months, we had worked on this song in choir. He knew the director well, so the day of his memorial service a bus was loaded up at school and the choir came to sing around us. This was one of the songs.

    This was our choir's graduation song for two years in a row. We voted it that way... but our nationally known choir in 2011 was completely dissolved, all 60 previous members, graduated by 2012. I've never had a real family, we're so broken. I find that this song takes me back to the only family I've ever had... just as broken. But every time, this song in all it's warm sadness, makes me cry. The song is that tearing feeling underneath a smiling goodbye.. the one that wants to to never let go.

    Its a bit of an unspoken audience rule to be absolutely silent during any performance. I understand that sometimes you can't help it, but that coughing guy really irked me. If its bad enough that you need to cough 6 times during the song, you should excuse yourself. The same goes for children, in my opinion. If your kids are incapable of being quiet, please don't bring them to the concert.
    I know that I sound bitter, but it just bothers me a lot when music is marred by coughing or loud kids.
