This is just one of the most sublime pieces of choral music in existence 🥹😍 We are privileged to be able to sing it in our next concert with Rheinstimmen having one of Tenebrae‘s low basses supporting us, so this will be one of the most memorable performances of my singing career 🥰

I just watched this for the first time, what a great window into how Voces 8 does what they do. Outstanding! The brother I couldn't remember is Paul Smith, who is now the leader of the Voces 8 Foundation. Voces 8 is not only a concert and recording group, music education is a huge part of what they do. Elinore, the blond soprano, left the group about this time, and Molly joined as the second soprano. It is my understanding that they tour, either performing or educating MOST of the time, and it is a demanding schedule. Voces 8 is the pinnacle of choral music, so there are always applicants to join.

Sir William Henry Harris was a British organist and composer. For 30 years, from 1923 to1953, he was a professor of organ and harmony, at the Royal college of Music. From 1956 to 1961 he was director of musical studies at the Royal School of Church Music. In 1933 he was appointed organist at Saint George's Chapel at Windsor. He was most productive during his time at Windsor. he retired in 1961 and passed away in 1973.

For Jeff and anyone else that is interested, I am posting a link to a Voces 8 workshop from 2 years ago. The actual work shop starts 9 minutes in, and you will meet Barnaby and his brother, whose first name escapes me just now, and all the singers from that time. The workshop was sent all over the world and had participants from al over the world. You can learn a lot about how they do what they do. kzbin.infor5_y5bBiAl0?si=LbMZzhz9HFtMiu1v.

Jeff, I need to request this one. Please do "Shall We Gather at the River" by Voces8 and Ringmasters. The incredible arrangement is done by their very own Blake Morgan. I promise, this on will blow your mind, and I would love to hear your thoughts on it. Please???
