Absolutely horrible.

Well done! I have performed in choirs most of my life. I haven’t been that young for a very long time.

Astounding work from the basses on the passage after 5:20!

Beautifully done! Thank you!🔥

Devastating

good tempo. this is often done too fast.

It's such a different energy performed by 1.5 dozen people compared to 360, chorister age aside (and an Aussie conductor). ruclips.net/video/IXlQ09yy158/видео.html

This is incredibly, incredibly touching. What a work of art you create with your choir. This music is so heartfelt.

Ghost light chorus huh !?!?!??!?! well you guys just made me cry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a grown man of 40 cry!!!!! you guys have no idea NO FREAKING IDEA HOW MUCH THAT SONG MEANS TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! years ago when i was in chorus we did this song and it was one of my favorites!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you thank you thank you from the bottom of this 40 year old's heart for bringing back memories of the past!!!!! :D ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!

The soloist in this recording is amazing!

1995 State honor choir for California high schools in Pasadena in a Humongous church w an even bigger pipe Oregon in the backdrop. Men (80+) on stage and women (100+) in the balcony as we performed this song... Precious memories!! Did Anyone attend ?

promo sm 💥

Brilliant!

That is beautiful

Love!❤

My favourite version of this wonderful piece. I'm singing it (first soprano) in two weeks.

We sang this in church choir!

Thank you for giving us such a beautiful rendition. Every singer so engaged! I have not heard this piece for many years and it brings tears to my eyes as it was the first major piece I sang with a chorus of 60 at Concordia College in Edmonton. It was the moment I fell in love with choral singing, and what a ride it has been!

This sounds like a extrosism cult.😰

I sang this work twice in the 1980s and always hoped there would have been an opportunity to do it again. I loved the work - the paintings by Edward Hicks, the music by Randall Thompson, and the words from the prophet Isaiah.

0:58 the girl sounds like Yoko Ono!

I sang this (third alto) in high school in 1961, 60 years ago, (!!!) and I remember "He Shall Have A Song"... every note. Oh I miss singing!!

this is arguably a worldclass repertoire entry-level standard introduction to ensemble sound poetry & equally arguably so straightforwardly entry-level that it's kinda "yeah, whatever" but that principle soloist who takes on the 3 ululations toward the end nails this permanently into the record of Great Sound Poetry Recordings (& i'm more subjectively impressed by the intensity of her focus & the way she throws/loosens her body into the production of those 3 textures: wow!). kinda makes any further attempts at this piece irrelevant (though i think we're gonna try it anyway): excellent pace, clear articulation, escalating density, crisp endrelease: thank you!

OMG, that was an amazing performance. Greetings from Detroit!

On la écouté en cour

I had to watch for my work

Only Hugo Distler could make a beautiful choral piece more beautiful. Unfortunately he was murdered at a relatively young age by the Nazis in Germany. Check out his other chorl works and organ works. What a superb performance!

I miss making music. This is lovely.

Performed this with Harding University Concert Choir In ‘91. Fond memories. Strained me as a first tenor. I dreaded the sustained high notes on “when one goeth with a pi-ipe!” Thank you for a brilliant reminder.

something about this would make it perfect for the soundtrack of a horror movie

Beautifully performed. Thankyou for sharing.

Gorgeous. Thank you for posting 💕

This song is so bad it is good

My God - THANK YOU FOR THIS GIFT!!! I sang this in All South Jersey in the 90s and I have that recording - but we were kids!!! And us kids took this piece SO SERIOUSLY at the time -because we had an AMAZING conductor who challenged us to be more than we ever thought we could be. The night of the show, there was a huge wind storm, and it almost blew the roof off of the building - but it made great audio - since we singing about some of the most horrifc and also amazing bible passages. I look up this piece frequently to sing along with it. As someone who has sung all of this (A2) - I know it is complicated and BRUTAL and a labor of love to learn it and do it well... I have only seen one or two other recordings - amazing people - great versions... I must tell you from the first few seconds, I was BAWLING my eyes out - for the entire piece!!! FINALLY some professionals did it JUSTICE! ANd your dear conductor UNDERSTOOD the pace and set the standard.... THIS was such a blessing - I just posted to all my friends and our conductor that year and they are going to lose their minds! Your tempos are perfect for each movement ... combine that with the artistic filming... And then on TOP of THAT, you are filling a room with - what? 32 people? I still have the score - certainly 8 part harmony... We had 200+ and I am not sure we filled it the way you did. Seriously, THANK YOU SO MUCH... Those who have sung this - it sticks in your ribs and your heart, and you will never forget it... To see people all these years later sing it with the respect and the care that it deserved was absolutely mind blowing. FINALLY!!!! THANK YOU!

Well sung - curious interpretation of Wood's "Con moto"!

As someone from Appalachia, I feel there’s no need to “sing it like us”. I’m sure none of these people speak this way. Also, I think the tall, operatic diction with which this piece is usually performed serves it much better. It makes it sound so nice and elegant; it just fits. I would never encourage musically educated people to try to sing like people from where I’m from. 🤣

Awesome!

I found and watched this in preparation for a performance of this piece with an 80+ member community chorus. I appreciate your musicianship.

One of the finest performances of this piece I have ever heard. I performed this many years ago, too. Takes a very special group of voices.

I stumbled into this... and I kinda like it. Downloaded one of her entire albums because of this video.

chillsss

0:58 me when I stub my toe

1:01 screammmmmmmm Panda panda panda panda panda

wonderful performance !

But I didn't like them wandering around...

I performed this many years ago with the Lane Cove Municipal choir! (Sydney) so it brings back lovely memories from the 70's!!!

Excellent job guys. Reminds me of my UMass Amherst University Chorale days. We did this entire piece and you guys did this justice.
