Being from a vocal background my whole life I know what kind of dedication it takes to do something like this, This was an absolutely great vocal performance, anyone that says otherwise just doesn't appreciate it or just plainly isn't into this type of thing.

I checked, it's in the same format as the Ringmasters one I put up, so it should be HD. I also want to apologize for having to take Ringmasters down. I assumed that Yes Sir, That's My Baby was PD, and it was not. So I had to take it down. Thanks for understanding, Jesse

I think the progression from the F major chord to the A dominant seventh at 7:46 is awesome, and the wave created by the hands further accentuates the effect of the change of harmony and slide from one inversion to another. There are not many amateur groups that can do what these choruses do. It is amazing how they sing with musicality and good intonation while they are doing all that crazy choreography, and, by the way, THAT WAS VERY COOL when they hoisted the guy up!

@guibox3 As a chorus and quartet contestant I've heard several judges agree with what you say and some who think the complete opposite. That goes for any doctors as well. They were the champions that year for a reason and I would imagine that personal facial expressions like the one at 0:54 were a huge reason why the presentation judges love this chorus as well as any other large chorus and scored them high for it. So obviously I'm all for it! :) And yes these guys are top notch!

I thought the tuning issue was just one Baritone going slightly sharp. I still think these guys are superb. It must be a huge amount of work to get so many voices to the required standard. They entertain with performance as well as singing.

Apples and oranges. The MoH choreography/presentation is crisper and they produce a fuller sound, though AoH has a flashier performance that also is impressive just because of the size of the chorus. Which I prefer depends on my mood.

At the same time, the woman you'd be talking to in real life wouldn't be as far away as the audience is from the MOH here. You have to keep in mind, on stage your movements and facial expressions must be exaggerated so the audience can see them.

Very pretty. Some of the guys like the one at 0:54 are overdoing the expressions something fierce. Dr. Greg Lyne on his instructional video on a better sounding chorus warned against that over emphasis. There is a difference between emoting and looking like you're constipated. Masters of Harmony is a top notch chorus no doubt!

I can identify with "feeling" the song, Step. You're right that we can't be maniquens on stage. And I appreciate the intracacies and synchonicity of the choreography. But I see the faces of some of these guys and think, if that's the face they'd be making when actually singing to a woman, that lady would be walking away! :) Likewise as everyone is doing their own thing, I find it distracting from the performance. Last time I saw someone being hoisted up on four people's hands were cheerleaders

You are entitled to your opinion. As a former member of the Dapper Dan's of Harmony ('70 chorus champions) our focus was on balance/blend, arrangements, harmonies and crispness. We let our voices do "the talking". I still do appreciate the singing quality of the quartets and choruses..not taking that away at all..just no longer care for all the swaying and swooning and over the top "smiles". Keep America Singing !

Years ago I sang barbershop and REALLY enjoyed it.. then someone decided just the quality of voices were no longer enough...the fake enthusiasm and contorted facial expressions have demoralized me. I'll often just listen to postings..but no longer watch. Maybe someday, a chorus will emphasize their singing talent and not worry about trying to replicate child beauty pagents. Phenominal singing talent MOH...no one can take that away from you !

very good chores but for me it misses the barbershop magic a bit because there are to many tones to create the fibration you get with a good quartet, don't get me wrong tho, it takes masters to stay in sync like they do and it definatly has the barbershop dynamic

It's better they have over-the-top smiles than dead faces. Dead faces=dead sound. Believe me, they wouldn't sing as well without the stage presence which is not the same as choreography. I would much rather listen to singing from live active singers than from dead-panned dummies singing notes and words. You can choose to just listen to it, but when you are listening realize how it would not sound good without the live faces and energy they produce. -JJ

Very nice for a chorus. (Quartets are better.) But I hate competition performance of barbershop music. The "choreography" and the vocal acrobatics to impress the judges just come across as phony and contrived. This doesn't even sound like traditional barbershop. I wan't to hear something like "Coney Island Baby" in "C".,...a bouncy "C".......with no more than one key change, and without the hand gestures and phony choreography.
@ethanwolfe4339
@ethanwolfe4339 10 жыл бұрын
I agree that sometimes chorus choreography is distracting, but I think when quartets emote in contest their movements come off as far less phony than a chorus's might, and add to the performance a great deal. Crossroads "Lucky Old Sun" wouldn't have been spectacular without the emotion behind it. Regardless, contest performances are phenomenal to listen to from either choruses or quartets, I think. Gotta love MOH.

Yeah. It sucked. We won with the highest score ever written, as I recall! "Phony and contrived"?! LOL!! Couldn't care less about the Judges. The goal is to perform the music at optimum in all categories. Also, Quartets are not "better", they are just different. If you don't know what you're talking about, it's probably best to not comment. Otherwise, ya just look silly.
