My junior high concert choir class is singing this and Battle of Jericho which is also by Moses Hogan. We are doing it for our last choir concert this year. After 27 years, this is our amazing teacher's last year here so we are going big. Rocky Mountain Jr. High will miss you Mr. Saunders 😢
We are doing the same songs 😂
@@daytonhall3434 That's cool! Good luck!
ahhh finaly a song about me :D about time
elijah widmann same XD
Very good articulation and energy. Kinda speed up throughout the peace but snapped back to the composed tempo. Great dynamics and appearance was amazing!!
It feels like they went to perform this & the conductor was like "okay guys remember, EVERYTHING STACCATO"
Well that's kinda what's supposed to be soooooo
Yeah, I mean it's almost like the conductor read the sheet music and did what it said....
Moses Hogan himself taught this song to us when I was in the Louisiana All state chorus. Where's the soul? Pitch perfect...yes..but... Where's the pain one should feel while seeking God's deliverance behind these words?
It is a choir.... they are vocalists, not actors. They did a great job on a very difficult song.

Your opinion.
of all choirs, this is the best ive heard who've done the trio (by moses hogan) Sing till the spirit, Elijah Rock, and Joshua Fit the battle. Im planning on getting my choir to sing these songs, because they capture me, and these people sing them with the POWER i love.
Great job! I did not expect that ending. It was a really nice spin to put on the song. Especially since Im currently at the end of a youtube choir battle with this song. Lol
A great technical performance. Now put some heart and soul into it. After all, it is a spiritual.
They are crisp, clear, in tune, and you can hear every part all the way through. Great performance. I recommend this video for anyone trying to learn the song.
Love it...that is the FASTEST i've ever heard of this, but wow!
So beautiful. I smiled in tears.
You guys are so amazing! Best performance of this I have heard. Awesome guys!
Beautiful and mind blowing!!!
i LOVE this piece. this may be my favorite piece ive ever sang.
Wow, that's the best one!
Amazing performance!
AMAZING! This is a great piece (as all Moses Hogan pieces) and this was a great performance! Well done!
Faulkner University came to my school and sang this one year...it was so AMAZING!! this choir did a great job as well. :)
This is art!
I'm so glad we're doing this song in my senior year of high school. We only went over the first page today, but I'm so pumped.
tht was amazing!!! i loved every second!!! we sing this in richmond heights show choir!!
i loved it. great job!
Gave me chills!
i love the university of utah singers!~!!!!
Great job.
Your sound is so blended and crisp and clean and just awesome!!! I love the tenors! : ) !!
I LOVE THIS

This is so good.
I just love ittt
Wow. Best video of this song on the site!
Amazing!!
Yall betta ssaaaannngggg!!!
I live this song
awsome i love this song.
These guys flipping awesome
i miss choir and this song
My high school choir did this song for state choir, we were rated 1 :-) it is a very hard song, but it is also a very fun! I was an Alto 2... I miss those days!
Ahhh we’re doing it this fall
We just did this for are spring concert it's such an amazing piece. I was alto 1. ALTO GANG
wow! really good!!!!!!!
PERFECTION
Fantastic job!! Dr. Allred conducted our all state program in Elko, NV in 1996 and we performed this song. Our high school choir was in no position to rival with the University of Utah Singers, but with Dr. Allred's hard work we did put on one heck of a performance. Thanks for the memories Dr. Allred!
Flawless!
Great!!! I´ve been following you from Brazil.
Our Choir did this for Northern Ireland UTV Choir of the Year. In the finals we came a narrow 2 second. I loved singing this. My favorite song my school ever did. I was a lower treble.
i sang this last year in choir i was an alto 2 best part ever love altos
I mean could they be any more dead and solemn in the face...ughhh....I love how crisp their harmonies were though.
From experience: Their face is just pure concentration, it's so hard to get it right!!!
It’s a spiritual. You’re not supposed to look happy when you’re singing a soulful spiritual. Your face should reflect the lyrics.
It is a choir performance, not a rock concert. These guys aren't actors, they're vocalists.
I've sung this before and their faces are exactly the same as my choir's. This is an insane piece to get right and these people are vocalists. That's what happens when you focus on technique.
best song n the world
My school's choir is doing this piece for our spring concert.
i'm pretty freakin' stoked about it.
My high school chorus sang this at our christmas chorus , i was 1st soprano :) and the very high note my friend did and she did perfect!
It has been 13 years since you’ve commented this.
They are awesome.
that was AMAZING>
Did this in my chorale this past school year. So much fun :)
You guys pulled this off very well. (:
awesome!!!! :)
Fabulous performance!! We did this song for All State choir in Elko NV in 1996 under the direction of Dr. Allred (he was awesome by the way). We didn't even sound HALF as good as this!!
as many times as I've seen this video, I've never noticed that. and now I'm literally crying as how funny it is.
Perfect..very good
Amazing
Their sound reminds me of the St. Olaf Choir! (enunciation and all...) I love this!
I absolutely love this song and this version! Best on CZcams in my opinion ^.^
Oh, and I'm a soprano 1 singing this :)
IMPRESSIVE! WOW! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
WOW!!!
nice job!
I'm singing this song in my choir
we have a competition in about a month and we haven't even started to look at this song
Nice arrangement.
I love how at ~2:04 when the bass/baritone/tenors start the "Satan ain't nothing but a/Snake in the grass/he's a devil, he's a liar/Hallelujah Lord!" part.....super crisp and clean. I love the tone of accusing in the voice of the bass/baritones.
For those of you who said this is a pop song, please do not comment on the quality of the voices, first of all, because this is a spiritual NOT a pop song! Also, this is not too fast. While it is TINY bit faster than the suggested tempo on the sheet music, they had the ability to decrescendo and retardando: an indication that the swiftness was intended. Also, my high school try-out choir is doing this right now, and we sound way better. Our tenors don't sound like young boys, and our sopranos don't swoop as much, a serious no-no on most music pieces. Their facial expressions were dull as well. Overall, it didn't impress me.
Lolololol ignorance. Their tenors don't sound like young boys, you are just so set on your high school choir and you think NO choir can be as good as yours, right? Because yours is perfect but this collegiate group of singers is so flawed.
Matt Huckaba After going back and watching this again after completing the piece and competing with it, I believe that their singers are definitely superior to ours, negating my previous comment on the tenors and sopranos, but I did notice that it really is quite too fast... to the point of not being able to understand them and creating lack of blending. Please don't refer to me as ignorant though, because my choir is 1/3 the size of this one, completely mixed around so you are near no one of the same part, and everyone is in high school. It is held to elite standards similar to a collegiate choir. If you heard it, I would believe that you would agree it is above and beyond most high school choirs.
Omg.... My fav song!!!!!!!! Performed in the a da 2012 all state honor choir ( first tenor )
omg we are learning this with my womens ensemble. SO HARD! haha
Goosebumps such a good rendition wish I could sing for this college! Listen to Eaton Rapids High school chamber choir music T'1's that's me
Same here. I was Tenor 2. Amazing times
my school choir did this song but i gotta leave it to this one cause they did a freaking amazing job
Great harmonization!
Super diversified group!
beast
I loved being a first soprano on this song. :)
I love this song!! I heard the singers from Faulkner University do it live and I've loved it ever since. 2:17-2:25 is so cool!! I love hearing my 1st Saprano part really strong! The bass was great, tenors were good too. I couldn't hear much alto but I heard them a little which made the song sound nice.
Ah, this has so much energy! I love that the choir seems genuinely excited to sing it.
I just performed this in the BSC mass choir for the choir festival there yesterday and we did so much better
wow this makes me want to go to utah!
perfect
They did a very good job, in my opinion. It was powerful. The tones, the tempo, that little high, low move interspersed. They practiced this song diligently, had to have!!! Also, the choir members possibly had to audition. They are accomplished.💯❤❤❤
omg look at the guy that messed up at 2:50 .......hahaha gets me laughin everytime. :)
Perfect pitch and dynamics but there was no soul. It sounded hollow.
+Geronimo Larson You sound hollow
You are dead on! That was the way I felt about it in the end too
Geronimo Larson I agree
wow nice
Pls. watch UST singers.. Elijah.. really ROCK!!!
Super good
they were very professional and the song sounds brilliant.!....very nice blend no section was louder than the other! we see that too often! it was a hott sound
@KarisJD I wound up getting moved from alto to tenor. Tenor part blew my mind.
@Nikhibo Magic by the Ben Folds Five, as performed a cappella by the Voices in Your Head Choir of Chicago University.
this is an insanely fun song to sing. this arrangement wouldn't be as fun as the one i had. i wish i could find it.
@VampirFreundin I agree it's too blank I didn't feel much from them but they have amazing voices great blend and great dynamics
Crisp, clear, uncluttered. Superb voice dynamics, no vibratos; the way it should be sung. Bravo!
I like the Harmony
I got to sing the low alto part and the super high soprano stuff in my high school! I feel so accomplished :3
Do they sing every song I sang in high school? Hahaha this was one of our favorites. I agree with some who say it's a little fast, though.
we did this song for our festival but this is an entirely different version
Pianoboi90, what makes a 19yr. old kid the authority on what is appropriate and good in choral singing? You make it sound like they committed some heinous crime! I think this is an amazing choir and a great interpretation of a great piece! If you've got Sopranos that can sing those notes then by all means, use them! I personally think Moses Hogan would be darn proud of this performance!!
YEAH BRADY!
very clean recording, very little reverb. not sure if i like the overall sound, but it's really cool cause you can really hear just how much is going on all at the same time.
