Nicholas Ma - The Human Touch (SATB Choir + Piano) | Text by ChatGPT | McGill Schulich Singers

[@That-Fox]

Brilliantly composed and beautifully executed. A very interesting challenge to work with, I'm sure.

[@NicholasMaMusic]

Thank you! It was certainly quite a fun challenge to do this!

[@maternalcephalopod7193]

This would be so interesting to sing. A real challenge to all but the top choirs. A wonderful piece of composing.

Hi Nicholas! I have two things to say about this amazing composition: 1) It makes me incredibly nostalgic for my choir singing days...that choir is awesome! 2) Your music always makes me feel...and piece was no different. I felt the turbulence that comes at the meeting of art and technology and the subtle human touches that will be lost if humanity is removed from art. While I am amazed and thankful for so much of today's tech, I am also longing for the simpler times of my youth (I realize this makes me sound super old, but I'm really not THAT old 🤣🤣). Anyway, your composition put into music how some of the newer technology makes me feel. I hope you have a wonderful holiday if you celebrate, and I eagerly look forward to your next piece! 💕 Dawn

Hi Dawn, thank you so much for your kind words, it always makes me smile hearing these wonderful reactions! I'm very glad (and relieved) that all these themes and emotions I tried representing in the piece have been successfully conveyed to listeners like you!

[@MusicSounds]

your 'human touch' definitely comes through through your musical composition and lyrical arrangement - wonderful piece

[@lightl5146]

Wow this is amazing! So full of emotions. Fearful yet hope in sight.

[@TheWolfie234]

I started shedding a few tears listening to this. I feel... humans always have a way of bouncing back no matter what. I feel hopefully we'll evolve where AI can enhance our creativity by expanding on what we create. Like with this song. To inspire not replace.

[@nutshell-wj8tc]

I just know that there is deep meaning in music amongst music in its world, there's its beauty that only true music can express. Music changes, gradually and briefly, into emotion and words. But it's just that words can't explain such existential things.

Very captivating and thrilling piece! I’m so amazed at how you got ChatGPT to write such lyrics

Sounds like a musical

[@nitsuga_but_not_really]

This is beautiful and dreadful; just like a cautionary tale.

[@NicholasMaMusic]

Thank you, I'm happy this mix of beauty and dread successfully came through in the piece!

[@ralphnestorowicz4934]

It needs a major chord
