Excellent singing and sensitive conducting. I'll be happy to replay!

Phillip, thank you for this song. It was an honor to perform it on such a large stage, and I know has inspired all of our group. Each one of us had our unique story and hope derived from it, and it became the song that we cherished about this year.
From all of Waukee A Cappella 2014-2015

Far and away the most profound and moving reading of this wonderful work to be found on the web. It is a model of a cappella singing, technically faultless; but above all, so deeply felt, that it sends its message deep into the heart and soul of the listener. My thanks, as a musician of some 78 years, goes out to these young people and their conductor for giving me a truly spiritual experience.
