when you open too many tabs of the same video
Love this comment 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
I read that exactly as I got to the rounds section of it lol
HAHAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The wonders of stagger breathing
Brayden Echols a shame my choir will never master it
He mentioned stagger breathing in the vid didn’t he? I can’t find that part again! Do you know when it is?
@@caitlinholdcroft6716 he talked about it starting at 1:00
YASSSSSSSSS
1:25
not a tenor in sight, just people living in the moment
Max idk why i found this so funny
LMAO
What does that mean?
@@Kerm88 a Lost baritone joins the chat
Us baritones and basses need our escapes
i suddenly forgot to count
Me without a metronome
i suddenly forgot to breathe
ME TOO LOOOL
Hahah me too
How are a group of people this coordinated I can’t even walk and sneeze at the same time
Nessa Jimenez my name is Nessa too !
❤
They are so synchronised it sounds like one big voice?!
It's ear-candy!
It’s called good blending
Omw i love earcandy!
Hello, my name is choir. Nice to meet you.
@@69SalterStreet And as Choir, I do a lot of practice
Why am I watching this, I play trombone.
Hello fellow trombonist!
Same lol
Alex Lastname I play baritone😂
Hey I'm a marimba player
Same
Trombone rules
choir masters have the most amazing ability to make things sound better with the simplest instructions like 'move more air'
A single cup of the hand or a jiggle of a pinky and rhe whole ensemble sounds different. Amazing
“The number you have dialled, is not yet in service”
Macky Moo 😂
It literally does not matter if they use solfege or numbers! Numbers are perfectly fine for this exercise
Both ways are so much fun, though. 😂
I'd mess up the numbers all the time. XD
You get used to it after a while and it becomes natural
Wait till you have to do it with the alphabet
That's why solfege is better
I learned this in about 3 attempts in a group of 40. The hardest one for me to grasp was
1 5 4 5 3 5 2 5 1 5 4 5 3 2 1
@@tcd3077 and then do it backwards!
It’s been three years since I’ve been in choir and I miss this so much. Just everyone sharpening a talent they’re passionate about together, and making some beautiful sounds while they do it.
probably a barbershop harmony society chapter with a chorus near you! there’s even a function on the BHS webpage to find ones close to you!
When everybody does their part in the group project
I no longer know how to count past 8, thank you.
Welcome in the world of dance, Rythmic gym, skating, and now solfege...
@@watewmark what they were doing wasn't solfege. Solfege is Doh Re Mi
@@erinlilly6111 Oh you wanna be uppity ? Then no, solfege is UT re mi [...]. You didnt do solfege your whole life cauz you didnt use the proper wording !!
Sounds ridiculous right ? Then they were doing solfege whatever they were saying, THANK YOU.
@@watewmark solfege is Doh Re Mi Fah Sol Lah Ti Doh
@@watewmark you're talking about the one from the 11th century. News flash we aren't there.
Who else was brought here by recommended
🙋🏾♀️😂
Me 😁
Mee. I have no idea why tho
Yes
Me: You're a piano player, you will never need this.
Me to me: Ya but watch the whole video six times anyway
phandom001 I can relate 😂
Every piano player that works with singers should learn this, because a voice is not a piano. If you can teach a singer to relate their pitches this way, they can practice without a piano, but be ready to perform with the piano.
When i've done this they've made us do it backwards down from 8 after the ascending scale! Oh, i should have waited haha!
I want a canon of this with one group starting at 1 going up, and the other group at 8 going down.
We do this all the time in our theatre group
This makes me miss choir
It kind of sounds and reminds me of those commercials that would say the phone numbers really fast at the end.
It’s crazy that there’s Guys in that crowd that are well above 60 and it just proves that singers always gonna sing like in basketball shooters are always gonna shoot
@@janetownley no ur completely wrong 60 is super young idk what ur talkin about💀
I’m a high school music student during the pandemic (I play trombone, violin, and I’m a soprano in our choir) and this video had me in tears. We’ve been fortunate to perform live but with no audience and only 2 in person rehearsals at my school. These are the moments we take for granted before we don’t have them anymore - thank you for taking me back to what I love doing for a little while :)
I've never seen so many boys in a chorus.
splatterofdarkness ikr same I am one of 4 guys in my chorus
It’s a men’s chorus? What did you expect
@@TA-yf3bd I always have to come across an idiot that doesn't know that I was just saying it to say it.
splatterofdarkness damn, I knew you were just saying but it’s kind of an dumb observation. Obviously there’s a ton of dudes here. Didn’t have to call me a idiot for it xD
@@TA-yf3bdMhm.
I'm a violinist but choir and barbershop are soooo cool to me, I find myself watching these warm up exercise videos every once in a while :D
Thank you TH-cam algorithm!!!!! It made me feel like I’m in a choir again. We have been staying safe & virtual in the pandemic, so no communal singing, but this brings me the joy of choir once again! :)
It's impressive being able to do it just one beat off, but I like the harmonies better when it is two beats off, as you get lots of thirds.
Theory Training.
Aural Training.
Vocal Training.
All in a single exercise.
Simply excellent. Bravissimo Tuttiissimo!!
I don’t know why this showed up in my recommended, but I am pleased.
who is the guy in the background he sounds like a sports announcer
The head Music Director (mentioned in the notes).
My dude in front right at 3:27 killed me.
The guy on black tshirt with hand gestures?
I felt so bad 😭
I play Tuba, and I think it would be so cool if band orchestra and choir all got together, like real orchestra!
AnOstrichYoutubing - the band played Hallelujah and the choir sang with us last year at our chrismas concert but the band was so much louder than the choir and we were playing in a gymnasium so the acoustics were trash. Also the orchestra wasn’t a part of it. I don’t understand why they separate the band and orchestra, we should all play together like an actual orchestra.
Freya Guppy My school does that with Hallelujah too! :D
@@ScarrVett hallelujah gang
AnOstrichYoutubing so you chase fat guy when you're bored?
Ever heard of Verdi's Requiem?
My choir director, we do major scale with numbers as well but we also choose 2 numbers to skip over so we actually have to pay attention and sing at the right time and the right notes and pitches etc. it’s really beneficial to learn how to skip around especially when you skip with mi , fa , sol since theyre quite similar and you can be off key easily
they sound like one voice, they are incredible.
I was a band kid who (still) can't sing to save my life, so getting to watch the mechanics of bringing out the best in singers is magical to me!
Why did I get chills at the very beginning? I miss preforming so badly.
The Count would love this choir! Imagine if these guys were invited onto Sesame Street...
I can sing "a 1, a 2, a 1 2 3 4"
Gah dang I'm impressed
What are you impressed by?
and im depressed
5:13 when you’re messing around with delay effects
this song will be stuck in my head forever
I just dialed this, and got a zoo in Mongolia?
😂😂😁lol
That was you!?
So this is the same as do, do-re-do, do-re-mi-re-do?
Mackenzie Eddy yes, but with numbers
I never thought 8 could sound so beautiful 🤧
The ending was greatt, why am I enjoying this that much
*Flashbacks to high school choir*
As a freshman in high school this round always turned out to be a mess because at that moment, everyone forgot how to count to 8.
I love this warmup, ive used it constantly for like the last 4 years- since i learnt it
I have never sung, however, listening to these voices I realize that I have a good vocal tone. Thank you for giving me good parameters.
This makes me miss chorus even more 😭 I miss warmups so much and just getting to sing with all of my friends.
And I can't even say the numbers correctly...😥
I do this now in my choir class! (I'm in middle school)
FandomsLover 1 2 3 ikr
Yeah this vid is really helpful
personal favourite warm up, watching this makes me happy
I need more like this. I actually want to watch more like it.
That one person who characterize counting is awesome
This is my daily mood scale from 1-10..
Crazy! =) will try this with my choirs too!
The conductors nervous pacing is just AHHHHH 🤯
Don't confuse excitement with nervousness. He LOVES doing this. :-)
hahaha :D 3:48 "nie nie nie" - it's Polish "no no no" :) but I am Yes man :)
Nie nie nie is never never never in German but it's pronounced a little bit differently.
nie is a German word
Finally! Someone who recognizes Polish first (I'm also Polish)
henryscp 07 It’s both a word in the German and the Polish language but with a different pronunciation and meaning
Nie also is a way of saying niet, which is Dutch for not
Why not use solfege?
1 = do, 2 = re, etc.
So you don't have to change the words when you change the key
@@fritz8498 you can use movable do (tonic is always do).
Where I live we read vocal music by rewriting into numbers and learning the solfege that way. E.g.
madahliturgi.wordpress.com/2010/09/14/o-holy-night-partitur-satb/
it just depends on the teacher’s preference. i’ve met people who do numbers, solfege, and some who just sing “da” while sightreading. it’s all personal reference.
vanno @vanno of course you can, I did that when I studied music theory. But movable Do is often mistaken with "I just sing all music like if it was in C major", numbers are more objective and it's more clear that what you are interesred in are the grades of the scales rather than the notes themself
@@fritz8498 hence we use numeric notation and sing the solfege. I understand this same method is also used in China. Either way has its pluses and minuses. Cheers.
This makes me miss being in choir
mee too... damn corona
This is fantastic! At first I thought it was “just an exercise,” but it is REALLY and exercise in choral excellence. Tops to the directing, and I can only image what this group can perform if THIS is just a warm up.
This is actually a very good warmup exercise. I might try it with my choir group. Thanks for sharing this! :)
Why is it so weirdly pleasant to listen to?
These dudes are literally just practicing and I'm so entertained
My choir teacher of Middle school did this exact same stuff, after moving to High I cant help but realize how good she was compared to most
I have been doing this with my choir for years....they just love it..This Conductor is very good . Mary Anne David ( Sri Lanka )
They sound so good!!
I literally was looking for "warm up by canon" but this extremely as great! For those that's wondering -it's rap
This was one of my favorite warm-ups to do
It can be in solfege or numbers. Both have good effects for the vocals and especially for rhythm and harmony practice. ☺☺☺
thank you TH-cam for just now recommending something from 4 years ago
3:08 i love how it builds up 😍
Great.. Will try this out tonight with my chorus!
do the exact same warmup for band and choir, the canon seems tricky
Its amazing guys.
My ears glad to hear it.
love to see the variety of the member
Me: watches this video
Also me: regrets quitting choir
Still me: remembers that my choir director was emotional abusive and among other things, straight up told me that I couldn’t sing in front of the class
we do stuff like this on choir practises, too, and i love it. these guys are great, btw!💞
A girl in our choir when we would do the cannon with four groups would just sing one over and over again because it fits as you're going through. she couldn't remember how to do the whole thing and she would just go one one one over and over again until she knew it was over for her section 🤣🤣🤣
Perfect unison 🎤
Good job gentlemen 👏
Ugh this brings back great memories 😔
Gostei demaaaais!!!! Congratulations
They sound sooo good
Maravilhoso...dá um nó na cabeça, mas o resultado é nota 10.
I’m in my schools musical and we use this as a warm up, I’ve never done this as a warm up before so I don’t know the order of the numbers. Every time we sing it I stuff up 😂 all my friends know it and laugh at me
this looks like so much fun
I love this exercise! It's fun to do!
I did this warmup in choir too, and halfway through i realised I was joining in the exercise haha
My chorus teacher always had us sing this
This sounds so good omggg
I use this technique too and honestly it’s really fun to do!
Sounds fantastic.
My teacher would have the high do be a 1 instead of an 8 since the scale restarts lol
I enjoy watching vocal Scales I remember the second one u did
Choir kid 🙋♀️I learnt this when I was around 8 and this warm-up is pretty much for all ages hhhhhhh and there are so much more remixes and perfections to come up with along this one
This chorus is doing so good!!!
ρ(＾o^ )♪ happy singing! :D
I remember in middle school, we had a guest director teach us for an upcoming band concert and he made us do this haha, it was so fun.
Hearing them is so satisfying !
what a good atmosphere.. i would enjoy learning and singing with you
TH-cam recommend this and I’m not let do. I enjoyed this video thoroughly, good work.
you must know the numbers first.... 😂
The TH-cam algorithm works in mysterious ways
Great. Now i know how to count to 8. This video really helped me!
