- In celebration of Black History Month, here is our interpretation of “Lift Every Voice and Sing” arranged by Roland M. Carter.
The Aeolians are headed to South Africa for the 2018 World Choir Games! However, we need YOUR help to make this trip possible. Next week we will release more information on how you can contribute, so stay tuned! - Приколы
As an HBCU choir alumni, it's safe to say this piece is seared into the consciousness of all of who have performed.
FACT!!!
Just how they articulate "God of our weary years, God of our silent tears, Thou who hast brought us thus far on the way..." really touches my core.
Black excellence overload. I can't take it 😭🙌🏾✊🏾
Excellence overload. Not just black. They'd be great whomever they are.
Absolutely BLACK EXCELLENCE!!! BEAUTIFUL
Glory To God
Nearly in tears every time I hear them.
@@Adeliegentoo BLACK EXCELLENCE!! They didn't mince words. You clearly don't have an understanding of our purpose for saying that, so please don't attempt to correct what you don't first understand.
Top of the line. Off the chain. Anything and everything beyond excellent describes their performance. Can’t believe there are fools who gave this a thumbs down. Clearly they’re tone deaf. Superior job all the way!!! Principal James Weldon Johnson is in heaven applauding this choir for fiercely beautifying his work.
I just clapped in my living room all by myself listening to this! Now THESE are some voices!
LORD the basses!!! their blend !!!
I wish more choirs sang like this... tons of vibrato and such a beautiful, full sound. Gives me chills
I have enjoyed so many of their concerts.I have met quite a few of the choir members.Delightful humble sweet respectful Christian kids.God bless you for blessing me❤
.
This performance of Carter's arrangement is truly extraordinary. It's the best one out there and they made it their own.
Whew!!!! That diction and oneness of voice....so clean!!!! Absolutely beautiful!
One of the greatest choirs I have ever heard/seen, hands down! Amazing work, everyone. WOW.
That resolve at 3:39 made me lift my hands in worship... it was soooooo smooth!!!!
Was blessed to sing this under the direction of the arranger Dr Roland Cater at Hampton! This choir is amazing. Love everything they do.
Beautiful American Voices singing a beautiful hymn.
we love a strong and balanced mens section!!! Their blend and dynamics were killer 😍
Thank you for sharing. I am learning, growing. Happy Juneteenth.
Keep music excellence alive!!!!!
The dude in the hoodie is my hero. 😂
I have listened to a few of their songs and every one of them has me in tears. 😭 They're exceptional.
OMG! Listening to the Aeolians sing is such a blessing! My heart and my mind are so filled with HALLELUJAH (God's Praise) every time! You are truly "#1". Thank you.
Gerald Kibble 🙌🏽💗✨😊
Good LORD I was NOT READY for this arrangement! My ears were in musical heaven from the pianist, dynamics, blend...I mean just pure greatness!!!
Exactly the same or more in the heaven than You😅. Just wonder 🥺!
Love the uptempo, upbeat, spirited opening of this arrangement. A terrific performance throughout! Wow!!
I am a choral director. I would LOVE to sit and observe your rehearsal one day... I wanna know how you work on the music. You are so great.
I totally agree! Justice was done to the piece. Best choral rendition I've listened to so far.
Splendid! Absolutely Bel Canto!
Pristine vocals and award winning interpretation - Dr. Ferdinand!
Beautiful and amazing. I so enjoy hearing these young gifted...well trained members of this choir. God bless for sharing this special rendition of Lift every voice.
*y'all need to post more videos, I cannot get enough of hearing!!! surely angels on earth, my ears have been blessed now!*
Still the best performance I can find on RUclips! My 4th and 5th graders are inspired by y'all every year.
I have to add: Other choirs on here sound wonderful, but I love how the faces of these singers are sincere. They believe the words they are singing. Thank you for being all in!
Awesome song. Powerful powerful. God bless the conductor, pianist and amazing participants!!! (side note - almost choked laughing at the sweatshirt 2:44 "Sorry I'm late - I didn't want to come." 100!!!
Oh my word...EXCELLENCE on every note...I LOVE THIS CHOIR and THIS ARRANGEMENT!!!
Really the best performance. Love this conductor and what an exceptional group of voices
Beautiful!!! That young man on the piano is truly tickling the ivory.
The absolute best performance of this song I have heard in my 60 years of living!
This is, hands down, the best rendition of “Lift Every Voice and Sing” that I’ve ever heard. The composer, Dr. James Weldon Johnson, would be so proud of you all!! The students’ voices have beautiful tonal quality. I’m going to listen to other pieces they have done!!
Thank you Aeolians!!!!!
I remember singing this song back in high school and I could still remember the notes for Bass! This is a song to remember until the day you die!
So heavenly. I pray my white acc heart. Will be aloud to share a place among gods spiritually atoned performers
Awesome interpretation! "Lift Every Voice and Sing," Aeolians! Singing of the highest class and fantastic precision and unusually exact intonation!
Beautiful and uplifting. Thank you.
Flawless...u have a new fan! 1love n JESUS CHRIST
beautiful choral sound-such a unified sound. thanks for posting.
Could not have come at a better time right now... oof what a rendition!
Marvelous rendition, both the arrangement and the performance.
Tried to sing this years ago with my highschool choir... them notes ain’t easy on the throat let me tell you😂😂
Singing it in college as a 1st soprano, I got winded every time 🤣
My daughter sang in a sda choir and she used to say after she carried the big high notes how tired she was.It felt like work😂😂
😂😂😂
Big oof im doing this in college rn
Our Church choir sings this for MLK day and yes, we first sopranos feel it! But what a blessing to be able to hit those notes!
Absolutely beautiful voices ❤️❤️
Thank you all so much. I know as performers you get a level of satisfaction with great work; but I need you to know that I'm sitting here in my office at work in tears. Lest we stray? Lest our feet? Drunk with the wine of the world we forget thee? True to our God true to our native land!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God bless and keep yall wherever you may be now.
Top notch all the way. Intonation, dynamics, diction - all spot on. Bravo!
Beautiful harmony. Lovely pianist.
Outstanding!
I agree. Major kudos to the pianist. His accompaniment is more than just a bunch of notes as he delivers such passion as he plays. I always look forward to the RUclips videos where he is accompanying this blessed choral group.
Goosebumps !! Absolutely stunning, from start to finish, and your pianist is SO good. “Lift Every Voice”…indeed.
He PLAYED HIS BEHIND OFF!!!!! Their voices have the blood of Jesus on them. When you cough on key, when you sneeze in perfect, THIS is where you belong lol
Absolutely beautiful. My God!!
Chills!! 🎶❤❤❤❤
THIS is what I wanted!!!! Finally!!! Love the way you guys sing it!!
Superb work by these wonderful choral singers, their conductor, and accompanist of this fabulous arrangement! Congratulations all!
Got chills
Needed this now more than ever today. Thank you so much!

This is indeed nourishment to the thirsty soul. I see this video is from 2018. I wonder how they did.............. They are certainly a talented ensemble. (and I LOVE the sweatshirt that kep popping into view "sorry I'm late. I didn't want to come.' Oh man; I wish i could give those out to my students!!! )
So beautiful, love it would love it to be our national anthem

Lift every voice and sing
Till earth and heaven ring
Ring with the harmonies of Liberty
Let our rejoicing rise
High as the listening skies
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun
Let us march on till victory is won
Stony the road we trod
Bitter the chastening rod
Felt in the days when hope unborn had died
Yet with a steady beat
Have not our weary feet
Come to the place for which our fathers sighed?
We have come over a way that with tears has been watered
We have come, treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered
Out from the gloomy past
Till now we stand at last
Where the white gleam of our bright star is cast
God of our weary years
God of our silent tears
Thou who has brought us thus far on the way
Thou who has by Thy might Led us into the light
Keep us forever in the path, we pray
Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met Thee
Lest, our hearts drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee
Shadowed beneath Thy hand
May we forever stand
True to our God
True to our native land
Our native land
Love it 💗✨🙏🏽👏🏽😊
So beautiful
This is beautiful
