(HD) - The First Noel - A Cappella Jazz Multitrack (Arranged by Mervyn Warren)

tinyurl.com/ent... tinyurl.com/iTu...
I know it's a little early for Christmas but I recorded this one last week and I couldn't wait to put it here ! =)
So here it is for you. It was arranged by one of my all time favorite vocal arranger, Mervyn Warren (who sang with Take 6). And recorded by barbershop quartet called Acoustix on their album "Cool Yule".
There are 4 parts but I recorded each part twice...(except the 2 solos) to sound bigger.
I used Logic Pro/Final Cut for the editing.
NO AUTO TUNE, MELODYNE OR ANY PITCH CORRECTION HAS BEEN USED/ADDED.
I hope you like it and wish you a Merry Christmas 2009 to all of you !!
THANKS for watching !! Don't forget to rate, comment, subscribe and share it to your friends !!

Voici un nouveau morceau multitrack arrangé par l'un de mes arrangeurs a cappella préférés : Mervyn Warren (qui a fait partie du groupe TAKE 6). Cet arrangement a été enregistré par le quartet américain "Acoustix" dans leur album "Cool Yule".
Il y a 4 voix mais je les ai toutes enregistrées 2 fois.
J'ai utilisé Logic Pro et Final Cut pour le montage. (apple)
Il n'y a pas auto tune ou n'importe quel autre correcteur de notes...
Je souhaite à tous un joyeux noël 2009 et de bonnes fêtes de fin d'année en espérant que ce morceau vous plaise !

The First Noel, the Angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

Mervyn is credited in the title above. He is an amazing arranger. This guy does the arrangement incredible justice. Great job all around.

[@gregstegeman7102]

This is the greatest 4 part Christmas vocal arrangement I've ever heard, performed impeccably. Mervyn Warren (original Take 6 member) is severelly gifted-----check out his writing and covering all the parts behind Whitney Houston on "O Come O Come Emmanuel". It will leave you in tears.......JB--- Thank God you are on this earth.

[@AnnieJammer]

Wow. Perfect blend, perfect balance. Great rendition.
