Sung this on choir in high-school, it randomly popped in my head and I had to immediately watch a performance. Thanks Mr. Buckley! 😊

My university's touring choir is singing this song; probably with the lyrics intact. (I wanna be in that choir but I'm pretty lame lol)

Heel mooi gebracht.

This is proof you can literally find anything on KZbin

Foster is acknowledged by many composers to be the greatest American composer.

And audience stood.... perfect....respect at it's best. Manners...simple ones are long gone. Love it

Did they rehearse this at all? And the conductor counting away...

We’re singing this at St. Martin’s Episcopal in Houston this Sunday. Sent your video to my three Aggie children, my Longhorn daughter, my Bobcat son and their SMU Mustang/Columbia Blue Lion mother. Was pleased you didn’t end this glorious performance with a “Whoop!” Ha! Really enjoyed this. God bless you!

This is when the whole class is talking at work

I was at a concert and they sang this

Wonderful performance and beautiful lyrics of the traditional Irish blessing. Thank you for sharing this recording, @CenturySingersTAMU. Greetings from Serbia.

Very nice rendering. Taut and propulsive throughout. We did this piece in high school as our opener for a choral competition that year, and I remember our teacher/conductor saying “you always want the first piece to be a capella, short, and tight….. like a skirt on a supermodel”. Now every time I hear this piece I automatically think of Heidi Klum

Sang this in Middle School choir 1994

Beautiful

I learned this song in junior high and looked it up! I have no idea how well we sang it, but this performance is excellent.

I remember this piece from almost 50 years ago, when the local college choir came to my elementary school and performed this. I have never forgotten it!

Magnificent and beautiful ❤️ Thank you!!!

I preformed Mendelssohn's "Elijah" with the L.A. Master Chorale, and the Pacific Chorale and the Atlanta Symphony and Chorus. Each time we are finished and dismissed from the stage, I could almost swear that I was still immersed in the beauty of this master work.

❤

I am not a religious person, but I am a singer and I sang bass in my school choir. This, ironically, is the enduring piece I remember from my schooldays and, still to this day, one of my favourite harmonic arrangements of all time. Also, I share a birthday with Felix Mendelssohn!

First sang this in high school choir. It was a seminal experience as so many of yours was. Sang it again recently in a community chorale and it still feels like sacred ground. Just now, I couldn't get through this very capable performance without crying. Well done, TAMU!

I've loved this forever. I'm 64 yo now. Thanks for performing this!

Mother of glob, maestro. Do you have to go to the bathroom or something?

Oh dear, the male section is quite shocking. what a shame, it does not at all do this beautiful piece justice.

I don't recall if Frost ever said, but the poem doesn't really say whether that "made all the difference" was a good difference or a bad one.

You'll probably never see this but thank you for singing the poem instead of just noted. Bri)isn't director. Thank you . Even frost would have liked it.

Love love love!!!❤❤❤

Love the soprano

Isn’t this supposed to be a slow song? I sang this song in choir

kzbin.info/www/bejne/f6GyXquFlMt1g9kfeature=shared Our choir sing this many year ago

I am here because I heard this song from @itchyboots Episode 76 in her conquest to conquer Africa using a motorbike! Great song, Otieno.

It's amazing🎉

This is how a choir should sound! Many of Foster's songs are hauntingly beautiful.

Trinidad!

My choir is currently singing this! Gets stuck in your ear easily! I’m in the tenor part and it’s honestly anazing

Addressing the WRONG God. 😒😮‍💨 Salvation found ONLY in the crucified AND resurrected Jesus Christ.

Ridiculously too fast... I hate when conductors do this.

Wow

Bravooooo!!!

I remember in jr high a band came and they were doing all kinds of music, then they did this one, the guy asked who liked it and i was the only one in assembly that raised my hand. lol they were trying to prove a point but i can't remember it now. it was so long ago, but i do remember the trinidad and the big mississippi part.

Always someone coughing...

love this! reminds me of germany

so - I made a comment yesterday. And now today - At this rate, it'll be Over before it Started. And the middle section will be the worse-for-wear.

We attempted this song memorized twice Didn’t work lol

0:49 - Is this My Fair Lady? Are we at the races?

We sang this in High School Choir and also I got to sing it during an Honor Choir Festival. Still one of my favorite songs.

We had such FUN performing this for a college alumni honors event :))

Love this, sang it with a group a number of years ago. Still remember my part, so sang right along! Some of the best music and quite old.

This will probably be the last song of my singing career (i.e. the last one I sing in secondary school with choir) as I'm about to graduate and going to do maths... bittersweet feeling after 8 years...
