There is no way that a black congregation could have set through that like this one did! They would have been up on their feet shouting halleujah! What an awesome job!
I love how someone is conducting the cutoff in the front row at 3:34. Some people just can't stop being directors lol :)
@ClintSintim73 The reason for the slow tempo is because it fit the space better. A good choir will adapt tempos and articulations based on the venue. A faster tempo in this cathedral would have sounded messy due to the long reverb. Generally speaking, the tempo should slow down as reverb increases.
@somecallmetim46 I was in this choir and the person that moved their arm with the cutoff was actually someone who had gone to hear us sing two times already and they loved that song and the powerful release at the end. They were really into it.
Beyond the initial disenchantment (slow tempo etc.), this unusual delivery of the piece is actually very good and has "a soul of it´s own". Sometimes when Black music is performed by non-Black artists, novel qualities emerge. Bravo!
Huh
@@agh6250 good question, I think he means like clarity of voice? idk
I haven’t sung with many African-American singers in my career, so I don’t know what he means by novel qualities
@satBASS You are absolutely right about this being fantastic, but it is definitely not a straight tone performance (nor should it be). This performance is filled with healthy, style-appropriate vibrato. MOSES LIVES!! Thank you for honoring his legacy with such a performance. If the video was this stirring, I can only imagine what it would've been like to be in the audience for the live performance. Lucky, lucky people.
You can tell theyre having fun. I get to conduct my own choir in this piece in a few weeks. I hope they have as much fun as you guys are. Fantastic job Dr. Allred!
Wonderful sound! So well balanced between sections and across the range of each section. Thank you.
It's all the moving and animation for me #JustSingAlready
on Friday november 4th i went to Chorefest in Wisconsin at the University of Wisconsin, they sung this song!!!!!!! i love it!!!
gives me chills
this is beautiful. your DICTION is phenomenal.
My only critique is that I would prefer the tempo be just a little faster. Otherwise, your voices are truly outstanding; the interpretation of the piece is spot on, and it was refreshing seeing you all get into the music. This was enjoyable listening and watching...Great Job...Bravo!!!
Ang galing!!!!!
Beautiful. !
This is such a beautiful piece! My chorale sang Elijah Rock by Moses Hogan, but i like this one more! Great Job!
Never thought I could like a spiritual done with straight tone, but of course it would be a Dr. Allred choir to win me over! lol fantastic!
[thought I heard some vibrato on the last chord though, no?]
Mawi lutuk
I love how Brady waved his hands above he head for the Soprano cue! hahahaha 1:08
Great sound, but the vowels are too wide. A song like this needs rounder, darker vowels, it needs to sound soulful.
It wouldn't translate well there. That church is almost as big as Notre Dame, and I'm frankly shocked the recording is that crisp (but you can still hear a 1-second echo). Dr. Allred is a master of tuning his choirs to their space. If it's warmer but less responsive, he goes darker and richer. Now, he may have gone a bit too bright here, but not by much. And mind you it's not like the choir ever gets a lot of practice time on any one piece in a space when touring. They probably worked on it for 10 minutes that day in that space, 2 minutes of which would be just adjusting standing positions, maybe even mixed vs. sections.
This is such a case of the group sounding much darker.

It's a beautiful choir, but it sounds like a lot of white people trying to sing a gospel song...
They were amazing to me lol. White peope can sing gospel songs tremendsouly in their own ways
sometimes... there are some white choirs that can really do spirituals justice. This aint really one of them. Not bad, but...not the greatest. they're into tho...
I screamed
Lol take a look at the statesmen quartet. The gospel style singing is southern thing in general.
There are almost no words to describe how insensitive and offensive this performance is; let's just call it: "Musical Black Face"!
I'm curious why you think that, Jesse. What makes it insensitive and offensive at all? How would you have them do it differently to make it more sensitive? I see these comments a lot on videos of predominantly white choirs performing gospel or spiritual music and the message I get from them is that no matter how they perform it it either "isn't black enough" or in your case is trying to be "too black". So are white choirs just not allowed to perform black music and enjoy it and interpret it in their own way? I think the heart of gospel/spiritual music is about complete freedom of expression and not telling anyone how they can or can't sing/share music. That just seems completely backward to me.
