- This INCREDIBLE piece stunned the audience for SFGMC's first performance
at GALA's Sunday evening's Songs of the Soul. The last few minutes are AMAZING.
Best conductor-chorus-connection I've ever seen!. Like slow motion....but in REAL time. And the audience response? ha! incredible.
It was an honor to share that concert with all of you during that concert. Seattle Men's Chorus loves you!
A luminous performance. A privilege to be in this organization. A joy to know these men.
By far the best recording I've heard of The Ground and the first TTBB arrangement of this song.
Big thanks to Paul Saccone of SFGMC for the TTBB arrangement! Magnificent AND Ola Gjeilo is only 34 years old and quite cute.
What a beautiful performance of Ola Gjeilo's magical piece of music. Both he and you have perfectly captured the beauty of "The Ground". Wonderful - I keep coming back to this performance as it is so lovely. I have just bought this piece for my MVC - cannot wait to get it into repertoire, I hope that we do half the job of it that you do! Well done SFGMC.
Great job guys, your hard work paid off - wish I could have been there with you.
In response to me thanking Ola for this piece and showing him this video:
"It's wonderful, Rylan! Thank so much for all the heart you guys put into it, it's very touching :)
Best,
Ola."
@John Schreckengost Thank you for such a lovely trip home however brief. The tears in my eyes say ir all. I'll be back to see you all again in person. I miss San Francisco si mych.
The composer is Ola Djelo
Gorgeous! I'm a sucker for a beautiful melody. How did I miss this performance?
This was our first performance in Denver, CO/GALA - we were on fire! We sang like angels..and and even impressed and surprised our conductor, Dr. Timothy Seelig. Truly a beautiful and moving peace - an inspiration in song....
Jaime Reyes Oquendo.
