Treble Choir: Click on the link on the right for the Sop2 and Alto recordings of At the River. It would be great to get those parts down right away so we can start making music out of it.
Below is the Color Purple from the Broadway Production. Fantastic!
Concert Choir: A great video of Moses Hogan talking about The Battle of Jericho. The subsequent performance is too fast, but it's cool to hear Moses talk about it it.
This recording is Moses' group doing it. Better tempo and diction!
Chamber Singers: Click on the link to the right to hear the recording we made last night. You are going to hear lots of good things, and some things that are obviously in need of attention.
I am also posting some videos of Hark All Ye Lovely Saints and A Maiden is in a Ring for you to compare and contrast. Have fun!
This new director's blog is extremely impressive! All the videos and exercises and practice recordings–it's cool to see what is happening in choir this year and how motivated everyone is, as always.
ReplyDeleteYes Supermassive Black Hole!
ReplyDeleteNext I am thinking about Radiohead songs -- if the USC drumline can play 15 Step with Radiohead at the Grammys (it's in 15/8) then maybe the Gunn choir can sing one of Radiohead's beautiful ballads someday!
