    Whose woods these are I think I know.
    His house is in the village though;
    He will not see me stopping here
    To watch his woods fill up with snow.
    My little horse must think it queer
    To stop without a farmhouse near
    Between the woods and frozen lake
    The darkest evening of the year.
    He gives his harness bells a shake
    To ask if there is some mistake.
    The only other sound’s the sweep
    Of easy wind and downy flake.
    The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
    But I have promises to keep,
    And miles to go before I sleep,
    And miles to go before I sleep.

    Honestly, I am over composers thinking all bass players are able to sing upper staff/above staff easily. For myself, it takes extreme amounts of pressure on my vocal cords to keep that C4 steady for 9 measures. It doesn't sound good on my voice at all. I'd end up being Bass 2 for this song alone, just so I can sing the ranges present in a good tone.

      Patrick V. Um unless ur like a russian oktavist then all basses shud be able to sing up to the high e or d at least. Its not impossible u just need to switch registers when needed. Being a lower voice is no excuse for not being able to sing high

    • @Baritondancer78
      @Baritondancer78 6 лет назад +1

      Agree, maybe your probleme is the location of the sound in your body. Try to put the sound in your nose, that part is piano anyway so you don't have to take out all your voice, another thing: hold your air with the ribs and the back, is going to be longer that way.

    • @rosiefay7283
      @rosiefay7283 6 лет назад +1

      It's customary for choirmasters to assign baritones to the bass part. I guess that choirmaster Eric Whitacre disposed the notes with that in mind, and expected the Bass 1 part to be sung by baritones who can sing high enough.
