    VOCES8 is the England a cappella octet, while Ringmasters are a Swedish barbershop quartet (2012 Barbershop Harmony Society champions). So yes, you would be right in feeling a bit of barbershop in the way they sing!
    This particularly arrangement we're hearing is arranged by Blake Morgan (tenor of VOCES8), and it's slightly different than your usual 12-singer ensemble. What he's trying to do is still somewhat separate the SSAATTBB octet and the TTBB quartet, so at times you'll hear sections where it's just the octet / quartet, and other times you'll hear some beautiful interweaving countermelodies. As an a cappella and barbershop fan, this is AWESOME and I definitely really want more octet-quartet collabs!
    Amazing video as always Jen, love your analysis on the vocal aspects so that I can appreciate their art even further!

      If you want to check out more of Ringmasters, give ruclips.net/video/Qo_N9_ZFBhs/видео.html a listen. This is with the original bass and was done at the 2016 BHS International Convention on the Association of International Champions show.

    This is easily one of the most mindblowing close harmony/barbershop arrangements I‘ve ever heard. Blake is a FANTASTIC arranger (and composer as well!). Try reacting to his Grammy-nominated „Slumber, My Darling“ 🥹😭😍

    Is this your first exposure to Voces8? Wow! Get ready for a deep dive. :) They. Are. FANTASTIC. And their collabs with other choral groups like this one are always top notch.

    Thank you for checking this out. This is the video that introduced me to Ringmasters, but I've followed Voces8 for years. I've seen them in concert several times here in the states, from a small church to the massive Basilica Cathedral of St Louis. Stunning doesn't even cover it. Fall on the floor, weeping tears of joy more like it. Blake is the tall bearded guy in Voces8, and the lone American. His arrangements are wonderful. The gentleman to his right is Barney Smith, the music director and counter-tenor singing alto. Andrea is the tall soprano, and you really must hear her live. Her voice is a wonder. Anything they have done is worth checking out. They have been on Djesse 1 and Djesse 4 of Jacob Collier, and "Seven Psalms" from Paul Simon.
    They have a parent organization, the Voces8 Foundation, with 2 other performing ensembles, Apollo, UK based mixed quintet, and the newly formed US based Lyyra, which is an upper voice sextet. They have 3 singles out now from their upcoming debut. Check out "Here there be Mermaids" or "Jhoro Jhoro".
    The foundation is in the business of promoting choral singing, often working with local schools in the towns they tour into. Class people, every one of them.

    Fantastic as always Jen! I encourage more Voces8 on your channel when you want to nerd out, as they are truly in a league of their own with arrangements, blending, all the nerdy chamber choir things that I could ramble on forever about. There aren't enough adjectives to describe how lovely each of these people are as vocalists and human beings. My ears and my mind are at ease when I hear them!

    Thanks Jen, I have been working with some of their songs in order to help my breathing, their breath control is extremely good and that is one of the things lacking in my singing since my heart surgery! This group Voces8 is very hard to stay with breath wise. My vocal teacher turned me on to them! Great analysis! Again thanks! Low bass Kenneth.

    I used to sing this old gospel song while growing up. It was written in 1863 by Robert Lowry. If you're not familiar with Voces8, they have over a hundred RUclips videos, each one better than the last. I was blown away the first time I heard them perform "The Deer's Cry," by Arvo Part. LONG pauses between phrases, but they all come in exactly at the right moment, all done without a conductor. Impeccable technique...

    I'm surprised, Just Jenn, that you did not recognise this piece. It is a very well known spiritual but I have never heard it arranged and sung as well as this. The words were oft hidden by the wonderful notes.

    Voces 8 specializes in classical choral music -- they are world-class and fantastic! RIngmasters are champs in the barbershop world -- it's rare that these two worlds ever cross, but this collab is divine! (btw, Blake is the tall tenor in V8)

    Jennifer! Hmm I don't think I know this group but I have heard the song before in church at some point. A cappella though, this should be good. Interesting intro. And at 6:45 we get a lesson from professor Jen! 😊 Wow it really builds at 7:45. Great acoustics where they are. Oh my! Voces8 are British! Formed by 2 brothers who were choristers at Westminster Abbey! Oh my goodness I can't wait to visit London Jen! But I digress. Gotta focus here. 😁 O. M. G! That was just stunning! Jen surely we will have more of one or both of these groups in the future, right? I was, like you, speechless! Awesome reaction and analysis as always Jen.
