    m16 tenor is on C4 and bari is on Eb3 (not Eb4 and C4 like I wrote)
    m19 bari should be Ab on the word "old"
    m63 should be "lift" me to paradise, not "life"

    For me, it doesnt get any better than this. The only one that gets close is Ringmasters Bells Of Notre Dame. I get in the feels every time I hear this song. Thank you for transcribing it!!! Beautiful job!!!

    Pulled up the chart for this to compare for fun, and you do a great job of accurately notating their interp in a way that shows the rhythmic freedom ballads have in the barbershop style. Seriously, having them side by side gives a ton of insight on where Crossroads took liberties and how extreme they were. On the other hand, the published sheet's key change goes to G-flat, not F#.

    3:21 the resolution to "eyes" almost feels xenharmonic, it's so noticeably flat

    Outstanding Transcription Jason. I have a few remarks though. On Measure 17 Brandon is on a Eb3 and Fred on the C3 and on measure 19 I think brandon stays on Ab in the "sun" note and Mike and Brandon change note on the "has".
    Keep up with the godlywork!

    • @jasonfieler
      @jasonfieler  Před rokem +17

      Thank you! Yeah I think for measure 16 (which I'm assuming you meant), that is definitely correct, I'll make that edit, and in measure 19, I think Brandon does stay on the Ab for the "old" note, which I did wrong, but I'm pretty sure he moves on the "sun" note down to the F and then stays there for "has" as well. In this version it's harder to tell, but if you check out this one (czcams.com/video/LSZGHn_qc_s/video.html&ab_channel=TheAssociationofInternationalChampions) it's more clear that the last two beats in measure 19 are both the same. I'm glad you liked it and thank you for the edits! :)

      Listen to the Album Version its safer, and the Baritone part is always tricky in performances, especially when the quartet has a "joker" on Bari who likes to change some things :)

    @KrashKart1 Před 11 měsíci +6

    not sure if this has been mentioned, but on a second rewatch they seem to stray a semitone sharp somewhere in the first minute of the piece. the transcription is definitely correct in capturing the intervals between the modulations, even though they sound a semitone higher than what is notated. still, an outstanding performance indeed

    I think “up in the morning, out on the job” might be off? To my ear the bari stays on G and the tenor stays on Bb for “up in the morning”, then they move to Eb and C respectively. Either way your channel is one of my favorites, and the work you’re doing to bring this music to new audiences is incredible :)) please keep it up!!!

    This was beautiful! Never heard this song before and I’m just getting into barbershop, in no small part due to transcriptions like yours. I think measure 72 the tenor hits a B not an A#? Regardless, I really appreciate this!

    • @jasonfieler
      @jasonfieler  Před rokem +13

      I'm so glad you like it and that you're getting more into barbershop! And yes, the tenor is definitely singing a B, but it's because withing the first minute or so, they drifted up in pitch a half step, so you'll notice that for most of it, they're singing something that's a half step higher than what's notated. I kept it in the starting pitch center though because I wanted to preserve the original intent of the arrangement, hope that makes sense! :)

    • @d1storted35

      I think it means cross voicing, since the lead is above the tenor there

  • @xymaryai8283
    @xymaryai8283 Před 10 měsíci +2

    isnt every major key basically indistinguishable without perfect pitch? there might be slight differences on an equal tempered instrument, but voices are infinitely variable instruments, so perfect intervals are possible
    maybe F# major is not a common range for a barbershop quartet? i'm overthinking it probably XD
