Enjoyed the reaction. You should listen to Voctave’s Disney Princess Medley, Heroes and Villains, and their arrangement of Mary Did You Know with the composer Mark Lowry is a super special performance. Lots of other amazing songs in their repertoire as well. Looking forward to more reactions. Enjoy!
Thanks for the suggestions! I’ve heard about Mark Lowry’s music video with Voctave too.
@DropTheMike- Now, maybe another suggestion, when you get the urge to say something, STOP yourself. I'm an uneducated clod when it comes to musical knowledge and even I saw the big finish happening. It was like when one of those civil defense tests comes on at the big reveal in a movie. Instead we get, "REANT", "REANT", "REANT"!!!! Then the talking starts and NOBODY IS LISTENING!!! They've changed the channel, or thrown a boot through the screen.
So just a reminder that what you have to say maybe insightful, but it will fall on deaf ears if the timing is poorly selected.
P.S. If I sound too mean-spirited forgive me. I am dealing with a 5 alarm migraine and have probably lost all facility for tact.
...and ironically "man bun" sings the part of Gaston in their Villains & Heroes Medley. A must listen to as well as Disney Princess Medley. perfection. Other amazing pieces: Prince of Egypt Medley (audio only), Someday (from Hunchback of Notre Dame), You Will Be Found (from Dear Evan Hanson, and featuring a virtual choir). And all Christmas music is amazing. Jamey Ray (center) arranges all of their pieces.
Haha, love it! I will have to check those songs out too. Thanks!
In fact, Aaron (and Kurt) used to play Gaston in the "Beauty & the Beast" stage show at Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World. Kurt's husband Zach occasionally subs as Gaston in that same show.
Great reaction! You can't help but smile with angelic music like this from #Voctave! They simply are vocal perfection. Pick anything and you will be amazed, but a few of my (non-Christmas) favourites are:
You Will Be Found - done separately during Covid (watch to the end)
Prince of Egypt Medley - it's audio only but trust me, you won't care!
Disney Heroes and Villains - spotlights the guys
Disney Princess Medley - spotlights the gals
Someone Like You feat. Jody McBrayer
Beauty and the Beast feat. Sandi Patty; and
Poor Unfortunate Souls/I Put a Spell On You feat. Rachel Potter
Their arrangements (by Jamey Ray, tenor), dynamics and layering are masterful! Wish more people would react to them as they are so talented.
Is this the first time you have heard Voctave? If so, welcome to the most awesome rabbit hole... you will not be disappointed!
Your next video needs to be the Disney Heroes and Villians Medley for the simple purpose of the fact that you guessed Aaron's character (man bun). Then it needs to be followed with Disney Princess Medley. Some of my favorites are The Prince of Egypt Medley, You Will Be Found, and my sons favorite the Disney 90s TV medley.
All 11 members (5 ladies and 6 men) are all current or former members of the Voice of Liberty at Walt Disney World Epcot in Florida. Jamey Ray is one of the tenors and he created the group and is the arranger of their songs and medleys. He writes the parts to the singer not to the part (alto, soprano etc) because he knows their strong points and ranges.
I got to see them in person in concert in October 2021 and they were wonderful.
I will be here for more Voctave.
I would love to see you also react to David Phelps I have Nothing.
Thank you for all the info on Voctave! I will definitely be reacting to more videos in the near future.
I also appreciate the suggestion to react to David Phelps. I saw him live in concert around 7 years ago. He’s amazing! God-given talent for sure. 😄
Voctave are a great group to start with, do some of their Disney ones especially the Love Medley and Princess Medley,
Thank you for the reaction
Will do! Thank you for the suggestion. 😄
So happy to see a new person react to Voctave! Everything they do is beautiful… great reaction, keep it up! (And the beard is great)
Thank you so much!!
Voctaves Hero’s and Villians Medley is awesome !
I’ve heard great things about that song too. I’ll be sure to react to it soon. Thanks for the suggestion and watching me react. 😄
Nice reaction. If you want to hear them sound like an orchestra, listen to their Great Movie Medley, an Ode to John Williams. Only one song has lyrics. They are the orchestra on the rest of the songs.
Great suggestion! Thanks for listening.
Great reaction, especially for a relative newcomer! 😊 You clearly have a great ear! You can't go wrong with anything from Voctave. They are, in my opinion, the tightest, most amazing a cappella chorus out there. With 11 members (usually) they have a fuller sound than the "other three" major a cappella groups... Pentatonix, VoicePlay, and Home Free. All four are top tier, amazing, incredible, etc. etc.... but Voctave has twice the voices (+1). They are best known for their Christmas music and their Disney covers. They also do a LOT of other stuff. I personally LOVE their Andrews Sisters' Medley, The Impossible Dream, and Over the Rainbow. I subscribed and liked. I'm in on the "ground floor, with subscriber #11 and like #50. Best of luck! On Feb 1, 2024, you have 11 subscribers! 100K is right around the corner!!
I love Voctave!! Would also love to see you react to VoicePlay! ❤
They are on my list! Thanks for listening. 😄
Well done! Liked and subscribed. More Voctave reactions, please!
Thank you! Will do!
Please do the disney princess medley. I subscribed in hopes that you will. ❤
