I don't understand why this video doesn't have millions of views!!!
I have been a barbershopper since 1958. I love the craft. THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!
Man, I REALLY want to sing with them...
I love barbershop
I sing bass with Toronto Northern Lights, so perhaps I can say as someone dedicated to the craft - this was an absolutely brilliant performance! Hope we can spend some time together in Vegas in 2014!
Once saw TNL wow something else!
oh ya! Barbershop at its best....they deserved the title at this Festival...Choir of the World. And they still are perfection...won the Barbershop International Contest in 2010.....God I wish I was 20 again....I'd swoon for sure.
3:05 !!!! :') just beautiful, brings back memories :)
lovely ringing chords at the end! YES!!!
Nailed the barbershop style. Aside from that the ensemble was just awesome. Natural and effortless come to mind. Hardly a contrived or weird visual or vocal affectation that often comes from lessor groups from this style. Some virtuoso control of phrasing and vocal AND visual energy. The best yet.
phenomenal
love singing barbershop! its so much fun!
wow! awesome
Amazing singing! Goodbye, Dixie, Goodbye is my favorite of the three. Although, the chord at 05:30 (during Their Hearts Were Full of Spring) was powerful.
Vagrants' bass always has the best facial expressions.
@mattdre88 Yeah, our chorus hails from Westminster California
Please serenade me!!! he he he...
9:40 to 9:56 super powerful
Triplets??????? At 00:46 and onward. Our quartet, "The Tunerville Trolley" sand "Ride the Railroad" back in the 90's for the Ontario's. They (judges)said it was well done, but we were docked points because of the triplets. We knew and were prepared to take the hit. Glad to see it's now allowed!!!!!
@x3rosebud I believe he's the bass from The Vagrants! I think I see all of them in there.
@joseph22689 Southern California, I believe. If not that, then somewhere in California.
@x3rosebud BASS FACE!
WHAT!???
yes, COMALiteJ was right--they placed 4th in their first competition in 1989 when the Alexandria Harmonizers won, and they have placed first in all of their appearances since. and Icyveins, obviously Westminster wasn't founded because MoH had too many people--its purpose was to bring together young male singers who wanted to sing with others their own age.
0:57 #YOLO
The guys face on the left at 0:23 is PRICELESS.
@Icyveins906 are you sure? im pretty sure COMALiteJ is right. their site says 7 consecutive wins. i dont think VM and MoH have ever gone head to head, but you never know with them W boys...
@joseph22689 Westminster, CALIF South of Los Angeles
Such a shame that they're scrapping the Barbershop category for this contest from next year.
COMALite, I'm sorry to say that's not entirely true. A: Masters of Harmony have lost twice. The years escape me, but it was once to VM and once to another chorus. Also, Westminster chorus was formed back when the Masters of Harmony were nearly twice as big, meaning that they couldn't fit everyone properly on the stage and risers at the international contest. I believe it was also once tradition that the westminster chorus was only age 25 and under from the Masters. they're mostly the y members.
@Sylvanas590 I usually look like a total dork.
Not that it really matters, but COMALite is correct. You should check where you're getting your facts Icyveins906 :-).
like, ew.
Seriously. That Justin Miller, ugh.
