    Here is some footage from a master class we put on recently. In this session, we were being coached by chorus member/performance coach, Will Harris, who makes a brief cameo.
    You'll have to forgive our director for blocking the shot!
    This version of Ebb Tide was arranged by Freddie King, sung originally by the Oriole Four Quartet, and is available for purchase through the Barbershop Harmony Society, at: www.harmonymark...

    The 9th is SCREAMING on the last chord! I like competitive brass bands and top drum and bugle corps - extremely resonant sounds - but these here are some of the loudest and clearest overtones I have ever heard.

    Why not just call it "D Tide?"

    First the tide rushes in
    Plants a kiss on the shore
    Then rolls out to sea
    And the sea is very still once more
    So I rush to your side
    Like the oncoming tide
    With one burning thought
    Will your arms open wide?
    At last, we're face to face
    And as we kiss through an embrace
    I can tell, I can feel
    You are love, you are real
    Really mine
    In the wind, in the rain, in the sun
    Like the tide at its ebb
    I'm at peace in the web
    Of your love

    Unfortunately I can only "like" this performance one time. Outstanding. Beautiful. Moving. Inspirational. Artistic. Perhaps there are not enough words to describe... I pray this group continues to do such good work and share it with rest of the world.

    Mature, dynamic, clean, soulful and so refined in tone that I damn near needed a tissue - whether for getting a little misty-eyed or for the drool on my chin, I can't say. Bravo! I will try and forget all about it by the time my boyfriend and I perform it for my 80 year old newly-wed mother and her groom on Christmas day as a little gift. No way we'll be half as glorious.

    What spectacularly, extraordinarily, stunningly beautiful music. This is what 4-part harmony can do to one - just transport you into some deep heart of music and set free some human need to sing out and make gorgeous tones ( and overtones). What a joyful noise you make! Thank you so much. I had forgotten how much I love this song, but I also think I've never really "heard" it before this. Perfection.

    The melody and words resonate through our ears. Our vocabularies are not sufficient to describe the outstanding efforts and sounds produced by this chorus and their music. A simple "thank you" for allowing us to hear your presentation and the musical perfection.

  • @FroobTubeLIVE
    @FroobTubeLIVE Год назад

    It just sounds like this is what it was meant to sound like. Other performances go way over the top trying to be something they're not. With this choir, there's such unison and such perfection that it ought to be the gold standard those seeking to sing this song aspire to achieve.

  • @marciapeak893
    @marciapeak893 Год назад

    This is beautiful! One of my favorite ballads. It sounds perfect because everyone can sing and has an ear for perfect pitch. Sometimes you get one or maybe two tone deaf people who always has the desire to sing but not the talent or gift join a choir and throw the oneness of the pitch out the window.

    Sounds good. Having a second director come in from the side seems odd as does putting the camera behind the director's back. Having all the singers mimic the director's moves is quite distracting.
