    I can't believe time has passed so quickly. I'll never forget the day we performed this. I'm the 3rd soprano from the top left side. Representing Southern University Music Dept. I miss my 105 VOH family!

    This is Roland Carter's arrangement. For me, this is the absolute best arrangement of this hymn. We have currently lost all knowledge of, or interest in formal performance practice. But this arrangement appropriately honors the history, the dignity and the style intended by its authors. Bravo, HBCU Choir!

      This is the version that gives me goose pimples. I also think that both genders as well as voice type gets equally celebrated.

    I had the honor of singing this when Roland Carter directed us himself. We had 4 choirs mashed into one and it was POWERFUL. I miss singing it.

    Still gives me goose bumps. I had the privilege of singing this song along with several other wondrous pieces of music under the direction of Mr. Carter last year at the LMEA (Louisiana Music Educators Association) All State Choir in Baton Rouge 2015. Mr. Carter is such a lovely and talented man. Never before have I met someone as eccentric and attentive to detail as him. It was a blessing to be able to sing under him as our clinician.

    When Dr. Carter and the Chancel Choir blessed us with this at church one Sunday morning, I had to tap the hell out. Tears were streaming down my eyes because of how beautiful the transition (sorry don't know the musical term) is from the 2nd stanza to the 3rd stanza.

    I love Mr. Carter's arrangement, and this group sounds beautiful singing it. HOWEVER, it seems like they missed some dynamics throughout. I remember singing this in HS and there were certain parts that were piano or softer and this group seemed like they went from forte to fortissississimo. But otherwise, beautiful job.

    • @Totojoyjoy
      @Totojoyjoy 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      +billydee215 I absolutely agree with you. I've sung this with the Wooten Chorale Ensemble, and indeed there are lovely, moving touches of dynamics that are missed here. HOWEVER, as said, otherwise, beautiful job. Mr. Carter's arrangement is always ultra-spectacular in any earnest and heartfelt performance.

    • @Hyphenated08
      @Hyphenated08 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I absolutely disagree with you. While the music is written one way, each director can choose to interpret the song her/his own way. Carter choose this interpretation for this performance. His choice.
