Westminster's rendition of Shenandoah makes me want to be american...just so I can sing this beautiful song. It's beyond superb.

[@MrFastpass]

Wow, just FANTASTIC. Great performance! Punchy, Polyphonic and Perfect! You deserved the Gold! :)

You guys are tremendous. I sang with the VM for 8 years in their early (smaller chorus) days. Your clean sound and precision remind me of them in that time, although I think you've improved even on that. Can't wait to hear your 2010 Philley winning contest set ....... CONGRATULATIONS ........ keep up this tremendous vocal work.

[@musiktenor]

wow! You guys are great!

@Floatingone1 This isn't barbershop, although I like the more forward sound. They are an amazing chorus, and the fact that they don't ONLY do BBS makes them well-rounded and a more appealing group to join than just the average BBS choir. I love the style don't get me wrong, but eventually, it becomes a matter that "I know this pattern" and it gets very dull. It's stuff like this, new, different music, that sets groups apart. I love choral music no matter the genre and love to perform it all.
