I get goosebumps every time I listen to this. I'm singing this song in my school's Vocal Ensemble. I really hope to do it justice.
Sarah Fournier I’m gonna sing this song soon and my choir teacher showed us our pieces and I fell in love with this one ❤️ I can’t wait ☺️
I want this sung at my funeral some day. Such a gorgeous piece.
Not going to lie. This made me cry.
I sang this song in choir once, I was an alto. The alto part for this song is so low :o
singing the alto 2 line is so beautiful i cried everytime we sung this is varsity choir. listening to this just gets to me. it is beautiful
It’s not that low lol
Half the song is a round, so you be singing the same notes as everyone else
This is a beautiful song, inspired by John Keats, and composed by David N Childs. This song is such a dichotomy. Listening to it you feel a heavenly comfort, as well as a painful sadness. Marvelously done.
Wow! So expressive. This is how this song was meant to be done. Bravo ladies.
The poem is by Keats & the title is 'The Fairy Song'. My daughter sang this when she made it into the Kentucky High School All State Choir in 2001. I always said I wanted this song played at my funeral, instead it was played at my son's on Nov.16th, 2013. :'(
Fairy Song
Shed no tear! oh, shed no tear!
The flower will bloom another year.
Weep no more! oh, weep no more!
Young buds sleep in the root’s white core.
Dry your eyes! oh, dry your eyes!
For I was taught in Paradise
To ease my breast of melodies,-
Shed no tear.
Overhead! look overhead!
‘Mong the blossoms white and red-
Look up, look up! I flutter now
On this fresh pomegranate bough.
See me! ’tis this silvery bill
Ever cures the good man’s ill.
Shed no tear! oh, shed no tear!
The flower will bloom another year.
Adieu, adieu-I fly-adieu!
I vanish in the heaven’s blue,-
Adieu, adieu!”
― John Keats
+Catcando75 I am a flight attendant for American at the moment and today I just had a woman basically fall in my arms crying buckets during boarding because she just came from burying her husband of many years! This piece entered my mind from high school as I gave her a whole box of tissues. Before leaving the plane she reached for my hand in slow motion, puts it to her cheek while tears continued to fall. She then pulled me in for a hug and whispered thank you in my ear... (I'm crying as I am writing this message to you.) My sincerest condolences to you my dear! I cannot imagine the pain you must feel. :'( I just want you to know that your post touched my heart as did this woman today.
Sincerely,
A complete stranger
Opera88 Thank you kind stranger, you have the gift of empathy, sometimes a difficult gift to bear. My son had Tourettes Syndrome, they have trouble sleeping. I made him a tape when he was about 10 y/o with soothing classical music. His favorites were Clair de Lune & La Mer by Debussy, Gymnopedie No.1 by Satie & Nessun Dorma from Turandot. Funny, they were also my favorites. He later transferred those all to cd & listened to them often at night. There is widow or orphan but no word exists for a parent who has lost a child. Psychiatrists say in the loss of parents one loses a part of their past, in the loss of a child one loses a part of their future. It is hard for me daily but your comment touched my heart & I thank you as I cry while listening to Barber's Adagio for strings. Take care of yourself, we empaths can become ill. Being an RN I know this to be fact, chronic fatigue syndrome, depression or unexplained aches & pains are common. So take time for yourself to relax but noting your moniker, I'll assume you do. Here's an article for you.. themindunleashed.org/2013/10/30-traits-of-empath.html
Wait. You mean to tell me my favorite choir song was written by John Keats, author of my favorite poem (Fancy), of whom I own his collective works, yet somehow I completely missed that poem? For SHAME!
Thank you for sharing your personal story. I know it’s hard. But it means a lot.
I sing Alto 1 in this song, Altho I like Alto 2 a lottttt !! we perform this in October !! I can’t wait
I sang this song forever ago in the Washington State choir. Beautiful.
So far my favorite song to perform in my schools Belle Voche. Also the Alto 2 part in this song is gorgeous and wonderful to sing
I sing alto 2 in this song aswell and it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I completely agree.
+Reilly Cardella I sang alto 1 this song gives me chills.
I love how this was sung. I can hear a balance between the melody and harmony so the sopranos and altos don't overpower each other. This song is so beautiful and I'm so happy that I'm singing it in my choir right now! Great job! 👍
I sing soprano 1 in this song! we perform and compete in the spring. I'm so excited
Hannah McKay ayeee 1st alto😉
+Emmie Vos I teared up.
Alto 2 is where it’s at
@@sarahnebeker627 me too!
Stunning. I first heard this piece about 15 years ago, but I've never heard it sung with such expression.
We sang this song for one of our concerts last year and we decided to sing this to our substitute teacher and she cried. It turns out that her dad had just died and she said once she heard the "dry you eyes" part she was balling. So sad ☹️
I sang soprano 1 on this song, it truly is beautiful
This gives me so much nostalgia from when my Women’s Choir performed this beautiful song. Almost makes me cry.
How could 7 people not like this??!!
My college’s audition-only choir sang this my senior year. I was in the open choir so I didn’t get to sing it, but I heard it during dress rehearsals and it always made me tear up.
When I first sang this in a choir, I was alto. That was great. Now I am soprano 2, it too is gorgeous. Wish our team’s performance would be as beautiful as this one’s. This is the best I’ve ever heard.
Joy Cho I’m also a Soprano 2!!
I'm singing this song in choir right now, I love it so much, it's so fun to sing and so beautiful
This brings back so many memories . One of my favorite songs from when I sung in Dimensional Harmony ! Soprano 1 all day !!!
My class is learning this song and it has to be one of the most beautiful ones that we have ever learned. I can not wait to perform it!
Same here! I was freaking out when we started sight reading it because I could already tell it was going to be absolutely beautiful and it is
Just got done singing this in an honors choir in Pittsburgh last weekend....it's truly a beautiful song.
I love this one i sing soprano 2 part
Sang this during Competition
~Serenade, Cosby High school 2018-2019
My favorite version on youtube. Thank you.
Brings tears to my eyes. Beautiful!
This is totally beautiful
So beautiful!
Not to brag or anything, but we sang this in my eighth grade choir. Props to my choir director for somehow getting 80 thirteen-year-olds to do this and to do it well. Of course, we weren't as good as this group, but I still consider it quite an accomplishment. I'm almost twenty now and I still remember every note in this song. I've always felt incredibly connected to it.
fave songs from concert choir weep no more & omnia sol (let your heart be staid) I sung alto 2
Wonderful
I'm doing this song for honor choir and I'm a seprano 1 😄
Mikaela baca same here 😂
alto 2s wya?
Hereee!
Here!
1:45 gives me absolute chills
another choir at my school sang this to follow "under the willow" and i can say the lyrics did not do what they were supposed to. i definitely weeped more.
Just performed this for solo ensemble with my double quartet girls, we scored a division 1:D
dang! nice job!
Yes.. BLESS.
i loved practicing this more than preforming it. forming the right sings for this song was so hard but worth if at the end. the chior room was small so the sound was so bold
Nice
Agreed.
i sang tenor for this song. and we won our states mpa
I am actually singing this song for my extracurricular high school choir right now. It is such a beautiful song.
i sing alto 2 for this piece, wish i was a soprano
Very good, very reminiscent of La Petit ;)
I sing alto one on this song
Toni McClain sameee
I'm normally an alto 2 but they booted me up to Alto 1 because they weren't loud enough.
@0:14 + @1:46
Alto 2 section is quiet as hell
