If you aren't aware, the tenor in the white jacket in the middle is Jamey Ray. As PHENOMENAL as the members of Voctave are collectively and individually, the real brilliance is in Jamey's arrangements! He knows his singers and how to showcase each singer's talent and then integrate them at their very best. He's arranging TO THE SINGERS instead of just arranging and hoping the singers can pull it off. Simply magnificent!
Many would weep, I think. We have Geoff of Voice Play singing from the deepest valley and Kate Lott of Voctave singing from the highest mountain. How lucky we are to be here to listen. Thanks, as always.
This group is so sublime. I highly recommend their Disney Princess medley - guaranteed to make your eyes watery! :)
Beautiful song! And my attention was caught by the expression in your eyes and wow.. your tears really fell (I zoomed it intentionally) 😬 You're a soft-hearted person, aren’t you? Nice reaction as always, love it! 😍
Congratulations on 40k Sir Hairless!! 🎉👏🎶👑
Kate Lott is a treasure. Makes me cry every time. Try "Disney Princess Medley" next.
You need to check out Voctave’s ”Heroes and villains” medley! I listen to it again and again and i am stunned every time.
How wonderful to see another who allows music to enter their soul and move them so profoundly. Music touches me like this sometimes and the tears just flow from the sheer beauty of it. Love your reactions. Thank you!
You must look one of the first Voctave's internet succes : The great movies medley. A John William's tribute.
Voctave is just as amazing in concert!
- Disney princess medley is a common one to react to (for good reason)
- You Will Be Found may bring the tears
- Carol of the Bells of Notre Dame when we get closer to Christmas
May I add Mary Did You Know featuring Mark Lowry, the song’s lyricist? His astonishing breath control alone makes it a must listen.
So happy you are back with Voctave! This song is timeless (sadly... still looking for that peaceful and accepting somewhere) and so poignant. 11 amazing voices with an stellar arrangement. I totally agree with you they deserve so many more views. Can’t wait to see you react to their Great Movie Medley, one of my favourite. But really, it’s all good. Thank you. 🤗
Fun fact: This was filmed at PattyCake! VoicePlay used this same background for their cover of Whiskey in the Jar which was filmed around the same time. I’m really happy you enjoyed this and can’t wait for you to explore more of them! You already have my Voctave wish list.
Oh wow! I didn't even notice the background because of all their amazing voices. Yep, I've seen that background countless times listening to Whiskey in the Jar. I'm looking forward to its appearance here someday. Thanks for the fun fact! 😃
@@smallmoments957 You are very welcome!!! It took me a bit to notice too because I was also so wrapped up in their voices!
Thanks for this reaction! Looking forward to more Voctave reactions. Your analyses are always spot on. Love to watch how musi8c moves you.
When it gets around Christmas time, definitely check out their version of O Come All Ye Faithful!
I love this piece. Voctave have such a specific sound. You should try their Disney heroes and villains medley for a "blimey" moment. But all their music is wonderful. Your tears mirror my own.
This is gorgeous. And yes emotional, what with the way the world has been lately. Someday…a time to care. 💕
Браво, Sir Hairless, поздрави за 40000 абоната!!! Дерзайте!!!×👏👏
Wow! Great r/a, Thank you! I love that you shared the Behind-the-Scenes video link with your viewers.
Have to mention; did my Bible study and my me time with or Maker and the clear message was HOPE. I started to browse through my subscriptions and yes this is the chosen reaction to listen to first. And the message for me; HOPE.
What a stunning way to relax. Congratulations on your 40K and a big thank you for this gem
Greetings from South Africa
From the first note, Voctave created a tidal wave of sound that kept propelling me forward ... an emotional anticipation of what would happen next. It continued to build until I actually caught myself holding my breath at the end. Incredible performance (and as always, ... good job explaining why, 'Sir').
This was stunning. You are appreciated and I thank you for sharing
If you're going to do Voctave again, one great song is when they sing Mary Did You Know wth the composer of that song, Mark Lowrey. Voctave displays incredible control in volume, projection, and more making this a favorite of many. Love your work!
Voctave is mesmerizing, so I totally get how it immobilized you as if you were entranced.
Thanks for this one. I think it's stunning. That ending and that soprano!!!!!! I'm with you on the bluesy run that one of the female singers did - she sounded amazing but I also felt it jarred a bit in this arrangement. They have such a range of incredible voices within their group though. Somewhere is such a beautiful, haunting song and I think they nailed that feeling. I appreciate the video being completely simple too - so the focus is just on the unbelievable vocals.
Wow, thanks for doing this one. These guys are truely amazing. To me, this rendition makes me realize that though we are forced to really pay attention to the extremes of vocal range because of their uniqueness, there are people with world-class ability with vocal ranges that we can more easily relate to.
My first listen since my back surgery and this was perfect - so lovely.
Welcome back Beth! 😊
I'm hoping that means all went well.
That much of a beautiful wall of music is emotional!
💧 ... great choice Sir Hairless ! Wowwwzerr ..... once again I am reminded that the human voice is the most impactful instrument. It is certainly okay to shed a tear or twelve.
Maybe this recommendation will move you ..
Bonnie Raitt featuring Crosby & Stills - "Love Has No Pride"
Thank you for bringing thirteen tears to my eyes. ❣️
Their Prince of Egypt medley will rock your socks!!
Great reaction! Thank you
Many have tried to not weep. Many have failed! Have you heard EJ sing with Voiceplay yet? He is Omars brother. Voiceplays version of I Cant Make You Love Me is absolutely stunning and features EJ, very heavily lead by Cesar.
PS i so appreciate your reaction/breakdowns!
I bet many have failed!
Yes, I mention this in the video ☺
@@SirHairless yes i was commenting as I watched, then got to the EJ part...doh, my bad:)
Thank you!
OMG - How totally beautiful in the movie and this always makes me cry- I love the words - hell, I just love this wonderful play and 2 great movies. Totally beautiful rendition. I think the second movie didn't get
the credit it deserved.
One Hand one Heart - it just sends chills and tears every time. Sigh😢😊
❤R/A🎼 I love this group.
🥹
Thank you! I'm completely with you around 14:00 - and the rest of the video! 😉 Love you ❤️
What an amazing arrangement of this wonderful song. I love the song and it touches me everytime. I only watched Westside story once, I could never do it again because I can´t stand hate, fights and intrigues. it literally breaks my heart, but I love the music and especially this song and this arrangement touched me in the depth of my soul.
Would love to see your reaction to Voctaves "on a clear day you can see forever" ft. Tituss Burgess
Wow Sir H! Good filth indeed! ⚡️⚡️⚡️You were frozen and then you were bamboozled! Hahaha 😂 I agree there was good reason - what voices and what arrangement ....I didn't know Voctave before you introduced them to your channel. ❤🎶😃 I also watched your Patreon behind-the-scenes experience at the Royal Albert Hall - amazing! - thank you for sharing it! 👌🫶🙏🤩
My favourite Voctave video is their Great Movie Medley. It's a collection of John Williams scores, and it's basically your entire childhood compiled into one video. I would love to hear your thoughts on it.
That is probably my favorite of theirs as well! It’s sooo good!!
No one can sing this song as good as Barbra Streisand did. 👍
