[@reginalandherr2610]

Danke! Ich hate richtig Angst... 😅

[@Ouvii]

Gahahaha!! that ending was fantastic! This is a really great performance! Took me a few tries to find a recording of this on youtube that was actually good; I'm glad I found it.

[@jre58591]

Haha, awesome! Such a fun yet cute piece.

[@miephilodendron]

amazing!!! makes me look forward to my choir singing this this season =)!

[@carlosmonterrojo9566]

F....ing great!! Just unbeatable!!

[@saintsaens21]

I don't know what you're talking about, the boys are pulling their weight here and sing more than honorably.

[@Arkhangemon]

The guy at :50 is AMAZING.

[@xcummyxmuffinsx]

The facial expressions made me LOL :D The singing is epic, though.

[@UlrichMatthes1]

Amazing performance of such interesting (and honestly very difficult) piece of music! Compliments!

[@kurtsiecolferites2160]

Well done!!! They did this awesome!!!

[@arnolfini26]

GREAT!!! ;o)))

[@darrenwelton8468]

Love love love!!!!! Great interpretation of this. I was fist bumping all throughout. The intricaties turned this from a song to a performance. Stellar!!

[@interstellish]

The eyes on that woman at 2:16ish both enthrall and terrify me

[@steveblaxton]

[@Redigeringen]

Notice the bling at 2:02 - This guy must have excellent dental hygiene :)

[@Lemiesle]

bonjour, où je pourrais acheter ces partitions? Merci!

[@theBlackBearrrr]

some of the dynamic choices are weird and the tempo is WAAAAY too slow but the accent is awesome with this song!

[@KcDaugirdas]

I prefer this tempo.. much more solid groove

[@Broadmaestro1]

Actually it is very slightly quicker than the composer's metronome marking and it is marked Allegro NONN TROPPO!

[@prolongasjonspedal]

@niklash72 "most girls are at least twice as good singers as most boys"? Statistics?

[@MerchantIvoryfilms]

Can't anyone just sing the film version?

[@terryhalco1021]

My opinion is that this piece is more interesting than the Harry Potter version of the same text (if that's what you meant). I say this even though I have great admiration for John Williams and his film scores.

[@MerchantIvoryfilms]

Terry Halco K, now back to my question, can anyone sing the film version?

[@dylanakent]

Merchant Ivory Agreed. The film version slays everything. What IS this nonsense?

[@murmurmerman]

Yes, plenty of people have sung it, and if you search for "Double trouble harry potter" you'll find those recordings. No need to make a fuss on an entirely unrelated video, the text is from Shakespeare and over 400 years old, lots of people have set it to music.

[@bolee55]

It is too slow ,but fine.

[@niklash72]

Really, really good, though a bit slow. As usual in mixed choirs nowadays most girls are at least twice as good singers as most boys. The sex ratio should have been the opposite to give a better balance.
