  • From the archives. Our first performance of Kirby Shaw's Bridge. Solos by Mark Macanas and Racella DeGuia. We later cleaned up some phrasings, but this first time was all heart. A great group of singers that year.

    This is practically the theme song of my chorale..,. We all love the tune and message, we've sung it at concerts, graduation, disneyworld, & everywhere in between- I needed to hear it tonight missing my own chorale and this version brought me right back :) absolutely love your soloists and everyone's spirit and enthusiasm!!

  • @renergutierrez
    @renergutierrez  13 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    those soloists really carried us on that one. our challenge was getting everyone committed to the same level as the soloists. I'm sure you'll give 'em a strong, honest performance! Good luck, let us know how it goes

  • @manders50k
    @manders50k 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Like you said in the description, it was all heart. This slower version is much better than some I've seen and performed. Loved it! And the soloists were to die for! THIS is why people love choir. Thank you so much!

    @minifmstatic hmm.., there are a lot of dotted quarter rhythms throughout; maybe you want them clearly defined by percussion, which we've done more recently with cajon and guitars
