CHAPTER SIX Vocal Ensemble

Purchase score here: ericwhitacre.c...
Recently, members of Chapter Six had the opportunity to take part in the worlds largest virtual choir (as of this date) - the Eric Whitacre VC6 project "Sing Gently." We all fell in love with this gorgeous composition and couldn't wait to create our own version of it. This performance features Wei Jiang (usually our soprano) on piano, with the rest of us singing the five vocal parts. We sing to you, gently as one, and hope that you will sing along if you feel moved to do so.
This score is available via Eric's website here: ericwhitacre.c...

I sang this with VC6 which was an incredible experience. Lovely to hear it sung by a much smaller number of voices. Beautiful

Again all my congratulations, by me and also by all my family that was listening to this song during the Christmas lunch!

Thank you for the personal performance of this simple and very human message of TRUTH long forgotten in the "ME" world we now live in. May this expand as a positive healer of my country and the world!

Very smooth performance. 🎼🎵🎶

[@ChapterSix]

Thank you!

[@monicaharhay5352]

Lovely... many thanks. Gene, I think it works for both but 17,000+ gentle voices make it that much more powerful.

[@ChapterSix]

Thanks for listening

[@danielaruiz8672]

AYO YALL SOUND LIKE THE RECORDING TRACKS😍

[@KawauMusic]

That sounds very nice!

[@ChapterSix]

Glad you like it!

[@angiebayi]

It's so beautifully presented...Bravo and thank you Chapter Six Vocal.. Keep singing gently as ONE..

[@ChapterSix]

Thank you so much!

[@GeneWaddle]

Thank you all for this! I'm trying to decide whether this is better suited to five voices or 17,000.
I think both are equally beautiful and I love the relaxed way you presented it. Well done, as always. 💖

[@ChapterSix]

Both!

[@elijahren]

This version has more presence. It's like they're singing right in front of you
The original is like in a cathedral, where their voices are spread and far apart with echoing.
Both are very good! Just depends on your preference :)

[@pippermouse4968]
