Heard it while at state for my high schools advanced choir and it was just so beautiful

[@sanguineaddiction13]

This piece is so celestial and serene. When I heard the first time at my step daughters choir concert... I couldn't help but cry it touched me so deep in my heart. My mother passed away in 2011 and my heart has been broken since... This song ... It was like she sent it to me, to my heart for comfort. Thank you for this beautiful gift. I love this So much.

[@415nerissa]

Lorie Swisher I hope that your heart has healed a bit by now. I think that your mom wanted you to hear this lullaby, and be comforted. You will see her again. ❤️

This song pierces my heart every time. This was my baby sister's balcony song for All State Choir. She performed it less than two months after our mom had passed away. For those few brief minutes, it felt like mom was with us again.

[@hooplah_.art-INSTA]

sorry for your loss 😢

The alto line from measure 93 onward is honestly to die for 😍

[@brijanabarnes16]

I did this while cadet teaching for my AMAZING CHOIR TEACHER! Honestly we did this song like everyday and I didn’t like it but after I started singing it after I graduated it brings me to tears because it brings sooo many memories from that class!!! i will always love and miss them! I wish the best for them all!

[@thepiggiesarehungry2444]

This song is so beautiful. Ever since I first sang it, I've been looking for someone I call my "star person." (Yes, it's super weird and cringy lol.) My favorite line in the song is "You are not of the ground on which you tread, but of the stars." And I know this song is about a parent's love for their child, but I think anyone you love that much could be your star person. That person is so special to you that you believe they are from the stars in the heavens. I searched for a year to find that person. And I finally found them. I hope you all find your star person someday.

[@n.r.r1385]

for me, this song is about nature taking care of us humans and seeing us and all of the plants and animals as its children. We are the angels, the gods, and the peasants. We are supposed to take care of the earth and we havent been, we've been drilling for oil and eating the animals when we arent supposed to. Even though, nature still stays by our side until the night swells again across the sky. (:

[@saphirestarlight0816]

I sang this in my sophomore year in choir. I searched for that person since then. And found him In my senior year. Everyone has a star person and they do come around when you least expect. So to any one who needs to hear it. It is worth it. And love is coming

[@arrow_of_ravenclaw5155]

[@compassknows]

In 8th grade I finally gained the courage to audition for the OkCDA All-Sate choir, and with so many after school hours learning this song and many others, I made it. Lunar Lullaby has left such a mark on me that I tear up whenever I come back here and listen to it. I will never forget the role this song had on starting my love for All-State and helping me break free from my comfort zone.

[@totallynot_mj]

I love this song it is so beautiful and I am singing it in choir. It made me tear up when I heard it. I love all the crescendos in this song. Especially the part “ of the stars “ it is amazing what this song has done to my voice. It turned it from a dull tone to a perfect melody. And I love how the high parts are easy for me to hit. Love this song. Thank you

[@cloverbernards3280]

This song was of many my choir now can't preform this year. I'm heartbroken for everyone that was effected by this. My best friends don't get their last concert, I can't expierence that with them and sing just one more song with them. It hurts to listen to these songs knowing that. I hope everyone stays safe

[@oliviawilson7690]

I am not telling my parents or showing them this song because I know when they hear me sing this they will start balling and I wanna look in the audience and see their raw reaction

This song and just a single voice is held in a special place in my heart. The kind of songs that save lives. All it takes is a single voice from one celestial child.

[@kickflips]

I don't know why but I am so drawn to this song, specifically this version of it. The way that the tempo is slowed a bit from the other versions makes it that much more beautiful. It may sound a bit odd, but this is what I would like to have performed at my services when I pass. It would be in my eyes the perfect send home back to the universe. All I can really say is thank you!

im singing this song for choir and i love the sound of it but i get to sing part two in a lower octave

[@anna-mc2or]

I used to be an alto and I have changed to a second soprano sadly, can anyone give me tips on how to hit the high notes without voice cracks? (specifically the stars part)

[@rosepetalfalls6918]

ItsJustAnna xx make sure you warm up your voice a lot. Even just slowly, to help get into that head voice more. Something that also helps me find high notes less intimidating is when you are about to make your voice go higher, imagine it’s going lower. I know, weird, but it works. It will give your sound more strength believe it or not. Basically, think down when you go up. And if all else fails, you don’t want to damage your voice by pushing it beyond its limits, in that case fake it till you make it and tell your director that reaching notes like that is hurting you and damaging your vocal cords.

[@anna-mc2or]

Dancing with Roses thank you so much! it will be difficult to warm my voice up though sadly, choir class is my 1st period. but, probably when i wake up i can try to warm up my voice! thank you!

[@ClaryssaBaker]

ItsJustAnna xx i know this sounds weird, but when you go for higher notes think of using more chest resonance and breath pressure in your chest. and my choir teacher has us think of it like an elevator: as the elevator (the note) goes up, the weight (your voice or mindset of your voice) goes down.

[@anna-mc2or]

Claryssa Baker thank you!

[@tararindt6976]

I know this was a month ago but who knows you might have to sing something soprano later on! I’m a veteran soprano 1 in multiple audition choirs 😂 My best suggestion is to anchor anchor anchor! Use your core! If you need help singing in that space, try to squat for the higher parts. I like to think nailing my toes to the floor, no reaching or forcing in the throat. Also my practice (not for too long) laying on the floor. Some on your back first, then on your stomach. Feel how your stomach moves when you breathe. I find my sound is a lot better when I do that, it’s a lot free-er sounding! People make fun of me but I do this regardless because that’s how I get my best sound! I have many more tips so if you’re interested, don’t hesitate to reply to this comment!
