If only I could one day just stand in front of a choir like this, to let the power of the sound & music sweep me by ... especially the position of the conductor in this video. So awesome the music, so awesome this choir, so awesome the conductor & musical arranger.
The great thing about a large ensemble is the fact that it can unleash far more power without sounding forced. It gives a compser or an arranger the opportunity to go from one extreme of softness to the other extreme of very powerful. This is why Beethoven's Ninth and Mahler's symphonies are so effective; imagine this choir accompanied by a symphony orchestra doing this... wow! Having done this kind of thing as a singer and as a musician, it is sooo cool!
heart melting. beautiful voices all of you. this is simply amazing, if this is what the choirs sound like in college you've got me hooked. absolutely astounding.
It was very pleasurable to listen to the CHOIR as a whole. This is the only concert choir that I have put in my favorites besides the Morehouse College Glee Club
outstanding performance!!! love the arrangement... the harmonies are just breathtaking!!! i´d die to sing in a choir like that.... seriously guys, so amazing!!!
hey if it were on itunes i would definitely buy it. this is my favorite version of the song mainly because its only guys singing and i love low voices singing gives me chills everytime! good job
@pedrorox03 It is possible that the cheezies created their own arrangement of Hallelujah in 2005 as there are many many arrangements of this beautiful song, but this particular arrangement is by Ethan Sperry for the Miami Glee Club in 2008.
Where do you find all these men who love singing?!!! Here in florence wer don't find basso voices for our choirs! If some of you is now living in florence contact me through you tube!
@itallicpenguin Thank you! No matter how many times I say that my great school was founded before Florida was even a state... People still don't get it :)
I thought it couldn't be done with a large choir. Thought the lyrics were too personal to hold the same feeling when sung in a large group. Well, I've been proven wrong. Big time.
nice, but whoever picked the soloist (and his brief accompaniment) was out of his gourd... terrible voice, flat with no sustain (he almost seemed out of breath)
Fell in love with my husband before his MU Glee Club days. But this video just brings it all back. I miss Oxford! And I miss the club!

Where do you find all these men who love singing?!!! Here in florence wer don't find basso voices for our choirs! If some of you is now living in florence contact me through you tube!
i feel like i should be hearing applause and "woo"s at the end of that :)
where can i find the arr. ethan sperry version it the best lol and i prefer to not have to make out every part of this song plz
@itallicpenguin Thank you! No matter how many times I say that my great school was founded before Florida was even a state... People still don't get it :)
@itallicpenguin I believe Ethan was inspired to arrange the song for the group as a whole after the Cheezies performed their own arrangement.
wasn't this arranged by the cheezies back in the day (2005)?
Need better (sound) version!!!! Any ideas?
0,99$ for this song in good quality. What can you want more?

Next time try reading the description or the annotations.
I could, but im gonna concentrate on life... as i have u....
If you're from here from Ms Patterson's choir hi!!!!
its beautiful but i was looking for a duet :( but i found this :)
my brother is in that yea snell
I thought it couldn't be done with a large choir. Thought the lyrics were too personal to hold the same feeling when sung in a large group.
Well, I've been proven wrong. Big time.
But why henning, but why is it recordet so badly ?
It cant get me off my chair in amesment
not just suits, tuxedos!
I never realised Glee clubs were real.
@itallicpenguin The one in Ohio came FIRST though.
the tener soloist in the beginning and the end repeatedly went flat
yea snell
yea my bro is front row yea snell
3:40+ UGH
No, Florence in Italy. We don't find basso voices! Maybe because of the hormones inside the homogenaized when they were children?
coff coff
this shoulda been the one in shrek
nice, but whoever picked the soloist (and his brief accompaniment) was out of his gourd... terrible voice, flat with no sustain (he almost seemed out of breath)
I agree. No talent whatsoever.
