I cannot believe my ears. I’m watching it over and over. Soothing, swirling, beautiful harmony
This is where it's at, 12 years later, timeless; I want to think and live on the level this is SUNG, Amen❤ Woop -Wheeee
I must have listened to this 40 times now. It's so gorgeous, and those chords make my brain feel good. :-)
Me too, i listen to it all the time for the last few days. It's awesome! :)
I agree, it awakens every good feeling, oh and I am at my 1 millions time listening to it
Pavka T. I agree. many thanks❤️👍🏿🎶🎶❤️
69kellygreen .... Kelly I sure get that... I literally get chills ... especially towards the end...
I will never tier of hearing this arrangement. The harmony is just exquisite. The execution so tight there is no room for error. The high soprano is just pitch perfect. I love it. I love her.
To those of us who are addicted to harmonic movement & substitute chords, this piece just gets better with repeated listenings.
I wish I had a count of how many times I've listened to this. I just keep coming back. Phenomenal.
Singing in a choir changed my life and when I listened to this I’m brought back.
The Sacramento State Jazz Singers rendition of My foolish heart/Moth is just mind blowingly perfect and the best I have ever heard.
The more you listen to it..... just exquisite. A moment in time. Thank you Singers.
You all are singing angels. Thank you for your voices, your musicianship, your nuance. Simply divine.
This musical group from Sacramento has taken Kurt Ellings version and morphed it into a fabric of sheer and pure harmony! So magic I can listen to it again and again. Perfection for the ears and soul.
And today... a very sweet Moment in Time. Thanks again, Sac State Singers.
I love that soprano!!!! Pure gold!
Marvelous arrangement. Fabulous young talented voices. It's great to see youth singing real music.
Sheer perfection -- the voices blend perfectly with perfect harmonies and a perfect arrangement.
And really refreshing to see them sitting and loving singing like that!
It sounds new and fresh each time I hear it. So good!
Gorgeous!! One of my fav. Kurt Elling arrangements. Beautifully sung!
One chord after another it's so beautiful ! :D one of the reasons I love being in voice ensembles and choir
I'm compelled to say something more. Congratulations, Kerry Marsh. This is a real musical achievement. I love this so much, it makes me cry listening to it.
Lovely job on a wonderful classic, SSJS!
What an absolutely wonderful group of young and talented musicians!! Brought a tear to my eye listening their beautiful harmony.
Brilliant. I must have returned here for over 1000 times. Kudos to all performers. Fantastic arrangement, Mr Marsh
Brilliant! Let's hope the Sacramento State Jazz Singers carry the burning light of jazz forward in their lives to illuminate the shadows cast by pop music!
Kerry, great job with this arrangement and with the group - I love it!
My goodness. This is soooo good. I'd listen to that for weeks around the clock.
Kudos to Kerry Marsh and this remarkable ensemble for this beautifully blended rendition of one of my favorite jazz classics.
my word...that is most beautiful tight arramgement of voices I have ever heard........wow ....what sound
thank you
In all my years of listening to UA-cam, this was the first clip that inspired me to search the Internet for the source (Kerry Marsh) and express how much the music moved me. The reason I took a chance on it is that, as much as I like Kurt Elling, I wasn't especially crazy about his rendition, and I'm grateful to have found the definitive version. So are the many people I've shared this with. I come back to it again and again.

Brilliant arrangement and production Kerry. It’s Sept 2022 now, they’ll all have graduated and hope they’ll keep in touch.
Well it is not strictly "a capella" performance, really, but this voices' ensamble is so ravishing I didn't even notice the instruments accompaniment , ))) Bravo for these wondrous youths, well done. Keep up the good work :)
indeed...they're so tight they get a pass!
OMG - one of the most incredibly beautiful things I've ever heard! Gave me goosebumps!
Beautiful! The best performance I have heard of one of my all time favourite songs
This must be what heaven sounds like! Amazing!
So beautiful a capella choral rendition of this masterpiece.

Astonishingly beautiful....tasteful arrangement, sung by voices that have been exquisitely matched... A+
Beautiful choral arrangement of the Elling/ Hobgood version! I've listened
to this over and over!
makes me cry every time I listen to it
WOW WOW WOW!!! I'm in LOVE!!! MORE PLEASE FOREVER!!!
I love this! I keep coming back to it again and again. These kids are probably gone their separate ways by now and have made lives for themselves apart from making beautiful music together, but I'm sure they'll cherish this achievement. Kerry Marsh deserves much credit for making possible such a classic performance.
This is it, they sound great i could listen to them all day.
Just love it..no matter how many times u've listened over & over
Delighted to have made this discovery!
Magnifique version, le plaisir est immense, superbe interprétation, bravo!
You guys stopped me in my tracks ! Stunning work :)
Absolutely great. I too could listen to this forever. In fact I walked around with this piece bouncing around in my head for an entire day and went to bed still hearing the harmonics! Would like to find more of the same. Idea of North, The Real Group and Manhattan Transfer are similar but the 'jazziness' of this piece is just so sweet.
Beautiful arrangement wonderfully executed...
Phenomenal !
Son fantásticos. Maravillosos. Con su arte interpretativo nos llevan hasta el cielo. Linda distribución de voces y aclopamiento muy profesional. Felicidades.
Probably the best vocal rendition of My foolish Heart that I have ever heard, perfect blend, nice jazz spreads salt and peppered throughout the arrangement. I might have ended with a Major 6/9/#11 chord instead of the octave unison but that is just a personal preference. Extremely well done.
omg, so amazing! I love "My Foolish Heart" and this version is GREAT!
words fail... Spectacularly beautiful. I'm gratified and encouraged to see a new generation that respects and pays tribute the great music that has gone before - not by copying but by raising the bar in both arrangement and vocal perfection. Bravo.
Go Sac State - Keepin' the jazz flame alive - Wonderfully done!!!
Goodness gracious, this is so beautiful.
This moved me. It's so beautiful to see young people bring their talents to a classic like My Foolish Heart. The melody is singular and the lyric timeless. Bravo!!
Wow, how fabulous was that.
And the quality of the recording is so good. Sounds like the Singers Unlimited quality of sound. Partly produced I believe by double recording. But the clarity and echo in the sound is outstanding. Kery Marsh, you are exceptional.
Exquisitly interpreted and executed! Pure vocal joy!
Usually I just surf on UA-cam but I had to log on to comment. Wow! That was amazing. And the casual setting of the video adds to it. Great job!
Light and exquisite .... makes me keep returning to listen again and again .... thank you for this perfect arrangement and this perfect rendition .... Love.
what an incredible arrangement !
The Star Wars chord at 5:49. Goosebumps:) I keep coming back to this recording. Great performance and editing.
I really love this!! hope to see you in Italy! maybe collaborating with some Conservatory in rome or milan or bari
This just changed my life..!!
Beyond Amazing. One of my favorites by Elling.
Absolutely beautiful , I hope brian Wilson heard this he will love it ,, thank you
Frank townsend.
If I had to listen to this for the rest of my life I would die a happy man. This performance and arrangement and recording is of such beauty, you all should be very proud of yourselves.
.Wooow. I am a absolutly fan of singer unlimited.It reminds me of them. Very great and nice, don`t have any words. Thanks. It touches my..........
just absolute;y beautiful!!!
Great job Kerry! Sounds really beautiful!
初めて聞いた時からこの美声に琴線を触れられまくりです。本当に美しいと思うし、歌っている表情からこの曲を愛しているのだな、と感じます。素敵です(*'ω'*)
I grew up on the Four Freshmen and the Hi Los, this is just fantastic singing and arrangement of a lovely song .I actually cried tears of joy during the last few bars

My ears were just bathed in beauty. Real singing, thank you!
Que du bonheur, Vraiment super. Merci
BRAVISSIMO!!!
What a wonderful piece of work! I listen to the New York Voices a lot and I have to tell you that this group of students could "hang" with them any time. Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!!!!
one of my favorite standard tunes, now my favorite rendition, keep it up Sacramento State Jazz Singers
Gorgeous. It makes me weep with how exquisite it is. Superb arrangement.
Also keep listening over and over.It’s fantastic!!!!
I can't "Like" this enough ! This is too good ! Too smooth ! Too much !
beautiful--thank you for your music!! wonderful arrangement, wonderful voices!!
Holy Toledo Jones! That was magnificent! :-) That's the best vocal jazz ensemble I've heard in a long time.
Simply fantastic.A breath taking performance and blend of voices. Great!!
The best arrangement I've ever heard one of a kind.
Man! I just discovered a new group to love! These kids are wonderful. The arrangement is dynamite; their precision is impeccable; everything works. This group is awesome.
Wonderful.
I've watched this video more than 10 times! I wish I could sing a song just like you guys. :)
My God that's so beautiful. Jazz is alive and well.
Cheers from "The end of the world" (Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina). A great performance for a great song.
This is as close to musical perfection as you can get.Wonderful!
I would have killed to sing this kind of arrangement when I was their age - (a very long time ago) - but I couldn't have sung it so superbly as these wonderful kids. Congrats to Kerry Marshall who left Sac State this year - I hope his legacy remains.
Nice and fresh treatment of this great song, nice.
Everyone sings with passion, depth, wholeness…but beautiful ….sanctifying….
Your sound is pure endorphin...it's habit forming.
A sheer perfection to the "th" degree !!
The lady on the front row right, is so beautiful !!
Fantastic voices and arrangement of one of my favorite songs. Wish I'd seen this group in person.
