    It's tough to sing -- not to mention tough to get the dynamics right. Otherwise one section steamrolls over another and the audience doesn't get all the intricacies of the rhythms and harmonies. But if you're in a good group that gels and have a director who can play traffic cop for the dynamics, DAMN, it's fun to perform!!!

      This is an intermediate level piece and sits in the sweet spot of the voices.

    This is one of the songs I sang in my 7th grade year, brings back memories listening to it only two years later. I sang this as a high tenor, now I'm a low bass. Things have changed quite a bit.

    How come no one ever knows about these songs unless they are singing it in their choirs? And even then, they only listen to the songs because they are in their choirs...

    • @Gunnarr123abc
      @Gunnarr123abc Před 7 lety +1

      because religion is dying, so these types of songs are hardly sung by anyone anymore.

    • @geoffstemen3652
      @geoffstemen3652 Před 3 lety

      Because the mass recording industry favors the pop artist formula where you record shiploads of the same type pap & dreck stuff, and that’s because the high schoolers at whom it is marketed will become addicted/attached to that and never discover traditional music

    I'm singing this for our sacred concert this year. I'm an alto :)
    I have a super easy part, but I sometimes wish I was a soprano. I like to be challenged with complex notes when I sing, but that's just me.

    • @alyl.9120
      @alyl.9120 Před 7 lety +1

      Yeah. I'm a soprano and my school did this last year. I've seen the music and some of the notes would straining for an alto like yourself. It's a very beautiful piece though.
