    Troy. I have sung my entire life in choirs from boys choir all the way to professional. When people wonder why I like Choir music so much, I will now be able to show them this arrangement. Wonderfully done, glorious music, and an excellent arrangement. God Bless.

    When I found this piece by accident my heart stopped when I first heard the vocals. I can't believe I can't find this piece anyway to buy. I can't stop listening to it. This would make a beautiful piece to have in the in the selections for Solo and Ensemble for large group. Beautiful piece I love it and I can't wait to hear what you do next.

    Wow. I didn't know that Sibelius was using a hymn in Finladia. I haven't known this specific song before, so hearing it now adds context to Finlandia that makes it even better.

    • @nncortes
      @nncortes 4 роки тому +2

      It is actually the other way around. Finlandia came first. Given the popularity of the theme, Sibelius later arranged it into a song. This english version is set to a different text.

    For your information the composer is : Jean Sibelius (1865-1957)

    From Sibelius' fine work "Finlandia". I played this symphonical poem at a music school youth Symphonic orchestra many years ago at 1985. I would get to know if the melody is written by Sibelius or from the United States or from Finland and tradited.

    Dear Alan Davis.
    As a farewell and thank you, I wanted to commemorate the choir teacher at the high school for being such a wonderful director, and for never failing to be there when we needed her. As a thank you from myself and seven other students, (as well as a collective one from all of her students), we decided to come together and sing this piece to her. There is eight of us, but I have not been able to find your piece to purchase to give you proper credit. This piece is gorgeous and very well arranged, and I'm sad because I feel like using this piece without your consent or without purchase is just not right. I really want to do something to thank you for sharing this piece and to give you credit where credit is due. Please reply back, if it is not alright to use this piece or to try to make a document version of it to be easier to look at while studying, please tell me as soon as possible and I will get rid of everything immediately. Thank you so much for such a wonderful piece. I'm sorry to say all of this to you openly, but I could not find a personal email address.
    Sincerely,
    Farrah B.

      Unfortunately, Maria Christina has provided you with a link to my sheet music, illegally. Since I own the copyright of my music and sell the sheet music myself, I cannot allow Maria to post my sheet music for free. That is a huge violation of the copyright.
