Well Done! Bravo! ❤❤❤

[@RichardRisiMusic]

I have probably listened to this about... 50+ times since this was released. Bravo, Brava, Bravisimmi Hofstra Chorale! Never fail to be moved listening to you all or performing with you all. Crisp and Beautiful chords and individuals who, when together (or apart), are filled with "Pure Imagination". Harmonious and absolutely gorgeous.

Rediscovering this 3 years later. Pure magic. Truly makes me proud to be an alum of such a high caliber program directed by an incredible professor & mentor. Thanks for the "dancing lessons", Dr Fryling.
And HUGE kudos to whomever edited all audio and video components - surely no easy task.

AMAZING ! SO WELL ORCHESTRATED and THE SOUND was SO PERFECT ~
ESPECIALLY for a "ZOOM Call" TYPE of GATHERING !
BRAVO !

Thanks! Though of course we didn't actually do this over Zoom-it was a complicated and lengthy process handled beautifully by Connor Martin at www.martinmusicproductions.com

Hi. Thank you for sharing your music. Bravo!!! Can you send me the music sheet? We want to sing it in our choir. If not where can i purchase the score? Thanks again.

[@DavidFryling]

Ben Bram is the arranger! ruclips.net/channel/UCzIEzZoPvBTQEkWZ49yYnDA

[@impossibleman]

What version is this? The line "there's work to be done," sounds very cynical. It stands out in an otherwise optimistic, dreamy song.

[@ELNCHIP]

. 1:40

[@PaulDrawsArt-c4o]

Gene Wilder would be proud

[@DARMEG]

Gene Wilder would have been so proud

[@noitalever585]

I shouldn’t have listened to Jacob Colliers version first.

[@angelthman1659]

Changed the lyric to "there's work to be done." Get outta here with that woke crap.

[@DavidFryling]

I'm genuinely curious what offends you about imagining ways to work toward a better world.
