      I was about to say, every time I see one of their videos, I just end up looking for shots with any of the NF4.

    3:39 - 3:47 that's what barbershop is to me. I haven't brought to tears by just the look on peoples faces and expressions yet in barbershop. That was definitely a first. Seeing the pure enjoyment of singing with 20 different people in the one frame brought me so much joy. You can really tell that they would have those same expressions even if they didn't have a crowd. That is absolute passion dude.
    (Edit: especially john, the baritone from crush, The face on the far left in the second shot)

    Just wow.
    My emotions rose and fell dramatically throughout this amazingly performed piece. And my favorite moment at the very end was the calming serenity and peace I was left with, believing that dreams really can come true. You guys should be aware that you're touching hearts around the world.
    Thank you so much.

    Yay for the tenors 3:44-4:09. What an amazing blend. Still awed from these guys since the first time I heard them 6 years ago.

    Their dynamics are emphatically precise. It is impossible to not be moved, emotionally, constantly throughout their performance. Sad that Walt never heard this arrangement.

    Another wonderful performance by the Westminster Chorus! I have watched this twice and I sure don't see any lipsync issues!

    The bases make that last chord rock! Anyone can make loud chords ring...it takes special vocal accomplishment to make soft chords sound like that. These kinds of chords are becoming a trademark of Westminster!

    I saw this live and it was spectacular. This won them the contest in my eyes. Oh and Seize the day was pretty good too. Especially that high F# from the bases. lol

    This is what barbershop sounds and looks and FEELS like practiced and polished and perfected, down to the number of guys kneeling at the end. Just DANG. Wow. Man oh mighty, that is good barbershop. I can't wait to see what they perform in Orlando.

    It's magnificent!
    Thank you, Westminster Chorus!

    So, throw a couple of handfuls of 60+ year old fellows in there (like most choruses have) and see how it all changes. Anyone else find it odd the median age of this group? Outside of that it sounded fantastic! Great job as always, gents!

    • @victoriafisher1923
      @victoriafisher1923 5 месяцев назад

      It's not odd; it's a group explicitly for younger singers.
