Omnia Sol (SATB) - Z. Randall Stroope

[@acesdubsongs9105]

I sang this for my final high school chorus concert. We all started crying onstage but kept singing :') I will always love this song.

[@luckincarnate9661]

that is gonna be my class soon too.

[@skyparnell9073]

We did this song as a farewell to the seinor... I dont there was a person not crying.

[@smileychey1738]

Same

[@bananakinqq]

that gave me goosebumps! my class is singing it too!

[@jessescrivner3414]

we sang this the day i graduated high school, the last song i sang with my high school choir 😭♥️

[@20beesinasuit19]

My choir sang this in my first year of high school, and two weeks before we performed it to the school, a teacher tragically passed away. There wasn't a dry eye in the room. Now, 5 years later, I'm singing it again in my final performance in my senior year. Life's full of tough goodbyes, some sudden and tragic, others long-awaited, but there's always the new beginnings right around the corner.

[@evydhyanchand2444]

maybe no one will see this comment. if you do though, brace yourself. we unfortunately had a member of our hs choir die due to suicide end of 2021. he wanted us to sing at his funeral. he was a senior, and this was one of the songs the seniors had already sung their freshman year, so we quickly (re)learned it so that we could perform it. i may have only learned this song in 5ish days, but i will remember it forever and cry everytime i hear it.

[@emilyh.649]

We just chose this as our senior farewell song for chorus today and I couldn’t even sing it in class without getting emotional, so I can’t wait to see how I react to performing it at my last chorus concert!!

[@cedriclewis651]

Emily H. Omg you're gonna ball. I did this my sophomore year for competition, and there was never a time I didn't cry while singing it, the song is powerful in itself. However in the right setting (such as a graduation,) it can't be even more powerful.

[@TheLorenzCorporation]

I'm sure it will go over really well! Best of luck!

[@braxtonward6619]

I had sang this song for my competition omea(Ohio Music Education Association) as a Freshman I think u will do good as a senior

[@jakedoyle9379]

How'd it go

[@vellbariaofficial]

That's the most deepest choir piece I've ever heard...

[@lhproductions61]

My choral teacher passed away after a 12 year battle with lung cancer. She had been teaching for 30+ years. This song made all her kids think of her because we knew it was coming eventually just... rest in paradise

[@claraloveday3096]

Doing this song for choir and love it so much

[@sydneygillum9869]

I'm doing it for my choir too this year.

[@davidsalmons80]

I am singing this song in my choir concert on the 29 of may 2019

[@davidsalmons80]

The first time I heard this song I almost cried

[@BoltBlades12]

This is the song my choir sang for graduation my senior year. It brings me to tears everytime, remembering the times I had with my fellow choir mates and how I miss them a lot. This song is not just one of goodbyes, but also one of remembrance.

[@Jimmysmom12]

My chorus teacher make sure that we sing this every year as like a senior send off now I'm a senior and it's making me cry😢

[@grace-mariestrong3372]

This piece is the traditional graduation song at my Alma Mater. I cried when I sang this as a Senior. Years later and I can still sing it from memory with little errors.

[@norbertrossi7925]

Thank you, Randall. Great music from the heart.

[@emmisouliere5456]

I did this my final year of middle school and my teacher started crying. Will forever remember this song ❤️

[@DreamKeeper.]

This was my senior farewell song in high school and even though I hated that place, listening to this still makes me come to tears as music was my happy place

[@chronicallyclaire2279]

I sang this song in 2009 or 2010 and still remember all the words, and can feel it in my soul. I will forever love this song. ❤️❤️

[@lindsayanthony6819]

2008 here and I'm so happy to find a good recording of it

[@luckincarnate9661]

I don't want my senior friends to leave yet.

[@JohnnyTheA]

Bradley DySard me neither

[@heatherpuddington724]

My chorus is doing this song and I’m a senior this year, but it brings me such joy to read everyone else’s comments, seeing how music can connect us through time and space!!

[@bailey1202]

Sang this song for graduation years ago, soprano is a killer.

[@mymilkficbringsallthegirls128]

Me to, I was apart of the sopranos

[@emmagamache1999]

Frrr soprano 1

[@doodooface9759]

the notes are so high it physically hurts 😭

[@thatvictorian]

Im an alto to mezzo soprano. having to sing this killed me!!

[@mayleeyorgason7187]

I'm singing this song in concert choir right now. I'm a first soprano and those high notes are so hard, but so worth it. I love it so much!

[@itsrindou2902]

Somewhere far from nowhere, I grew both strong and tall Longing to become, but knowing not the path at all. But the footprints of the winter melted to fields of spring; One last embrace before I cross the threshold: To life we sing! O stay your soul and leave my hearts its song! O stay your hand; the journey may be long! And when we part, and sorrow can't be sway'd... Remember when, and let your heart be staid. Omnia sol temerat, Absens in remota. Ama me fideliter, Fidem mean noto. Weave the dance and raise the; grieve no more... Through the strenghth of Orion, find refuge from the shore! Let courage be your oar; let passion be your sail; Wisdom and truth will guide your deep heart's yearning, through all travail! O stay your soul and leave my hearts its song! O stay your hand; the journey may be long! And when we part, and sorrow can't be sway'd... Remember when, and let your heart be staid. Omnia sol temerat, Absens in remota. Ama me fideliter, Fidem mean noto. Omnia sol temperat, And when we part, and sorrow can't be sway'd... Remember when... Remember when... And let your heart be staid... Be staid.

[@mukuroutheowl]

Years after leaving high school and leaving my choir this song is still one of the ones that was most heavily imprinted on my heart. I have this beautiful memory of it being late at night and me being out with a few of my choir mates during a school trip, we decided to stop in this parking lot for no real reason and we just started singing this song together. Next day we sang this with the whole group and made the judges at the competition we were at break into tears, ending with us winning, but above all else what stuck with me the most, when I think it was sung the most beautifully, was that night before when the air was cool and we just let out our souls for no other reason than because it felt right.

[@jamesvasconi6054]

This piece is exhausting.

[@michellecarrera2515]

I'm a senior and I already sang this song but I this is my favorite song and my choir class is going on a trip soon to Disneyland and singing this again

[@carsonh7222]

We sang this for graduation and our final concert in high school. Such a lovely piece - and I adore how Stroope wrote the tenor part for the last two pages. Seriously, this is one of the few songs where tenors actually get to sing high notes forte, so no falsetto!

[@nikhoecker7770]

This song is the last song the seniors sing as part of our chorale. Makes everyone cry every year. Shoutout to Dr Stroop for writing this piece.

[@vincentirelandii5745]

I remember singing this for 8th grade honors choir. We are singing it yet again for high school concert and it was just as beautiful as I remembered

[@olirolypoly]

i’m a freshman and i’m learning this song right now, i have a feeling that it’s gonna be one that i won’t forget

[@quartzfae]

this song touched me so deeply when we sang it in high school choir and nearly 10 years later i still sob hearing it, it means so much to me

[@shortybxtch8819]

This song always put every tear in my eye. It’s so touchy! And I’m gonna be singing this on my graduation❤❤❤ such a true blessing!

[@braxtonward6619]

I sang this song as a tenor and I felt like I could go sing with the altos

[@grace-mariestrong3372]

I sang as an alto and felt I could have joined the tenors. 😉

[@themastermind66]

im singing this as a soprano and it's super fun, i love choir

[@Peytharian]

I sang this song as a Tenor and man it was epic.

[@josephbryant3156]

I love the option for the bass to go for the low D at the very end. Beautiful song.

[@sasmadra]

Low Db good sir.

[@cedriclewis651]

Corason ooof

[@declanmcginty3076]

Lol very low d... I can’t hit it

[@jer-man]

@@sasmadra lol true that. That half step is a world of difference 😂

[@travist7777]

...If I think in Russian, I can land on it just barely.

[@gewgle45]

Such a beautiful and powerful song. It brings me to tears every time I hear it. My choir was supposed to sing it this year but we were unable to. I really hope we get the chance to do it this year

[@matthewrodriguez846]

My choir and I sang this and we all were very emotional during this song. We had to choose between this song or a song that a few of our seniors wrote for graduation. Of course we chose that seniors songs. Such a lovely and beautiful song to sing. Hope it bring many more people as much joy and hope as it brought us.😖😖

[@morganfelder4897]

Can't believe I'm graduating in 3 months, we will get to finally sing this song at our graduation ceremony. Can't wait but at the same time I will be very sad to leave, I've made so many memories at my high school and will miss it dearly. Most memories I never got to make because of COVID and that makes me angry. but I am thankful for the ones I was so lucky to make.

[@justinrenee]

We got this song in choir right after my favorite grandpa passed. I almost cried in class a few times but it’s getting easier to bear.

[@janelle6422]

we sang this song freshman year. we sounded beautiful and this was my favorite piece that we’ve ever done. i’m now a junior, and i miss those days so much.

[@zoie4000]

This is my choir's farewell song! We sing it every year at the spring concert and the alumni come up on stage to sing it with us! The last year I was there I didn't take choir that last semester but, the words were etched on to my heart. What a beautiful piece that evokes feelings of nostalgia and grandeur! My director loved Z. Randall Stroope and I can see why!

[@zoosmell_egbert]

My choir teacher is having us do this piece (we just got the music today) and I love it. Z. Randall Stroope never misses with these lovely pieces, every one by him we've done is so beautiful and gives me chills. I wish I had the talent this dude has.

[@JewellWare]

Sang this in 8th grade chorus class and for a concert I will always love this song too

[@canyoubelievethis220]

Beautiful song. To hear The Georgia Boy's Choir do this will bring you to tears. It can be found using "Omnia Sol" as its title.

[@CosmicWin]

All the seniors in my school, me included, have to sing this song April 26th for the final concert. Currently can't keep it together when singing this song and keep breaking to cry. But I hope with enough practice, I learn to keep it together and sing my heart out.

[@lillianforinash3722]

I sang this last year with my 6th grade choirs, let me tell you I’m crying just listening to it again

[@RenniaTrayvold]

Remember singing this sophomore year. Then as a farewell for/from the seniors we all gathered around our high school music teacher and sang it a second time at the end of the concert. Don't think a one of us (boys and girls) weren't crying.

[@lena_under_cover9732]

My school choir (Sweet Home High School Symphonic Choir) sang this song for our final concert and for our graduation (June 9, 2018). I cry everytime I hear it.

[@ultimatdanklin1473]

I will never forgot this song. Best grade 9 year ever!

[@Skins-et5rg]

This is a song that every year the seniors use their senior selection in order to do it. It was my senior year and due to Covid-19 I didn't get to do it one last time

[@Birbgoboom]

We sing this for choir every year for graduation. Im one of the seniors and the final note might make me cry this time

[@josephinecarrington7121]

I am doing this for my choir for graduation. I think it's just beautiful!

[@mossybiscuit4226]

My high school’s concert choir is doing this for our final honors concert this year. I swear I’m gonna cry so hard.

[@faithteffertiller5103]

Singing this for graduation! Very emotional yet exciting! Love to all😊💞✨

[@codename_mayo]

We are singing this at Graduation and I love it already from already rehearsing

[@MckeeJ19]

I sang this in 8th grade with the highschool, my first Highschool experience. This was also my Senior Graduation song. So many memories everytime it plays🥲

i’m singing this with a small group at my school’s Baccalaureate in a few days. i might just cry

[@lyndseyelting4720]

Forever thinking about how we were supposed to sing this senior year but Covid cut it short

[@AC-ht6ur]

"Omnia sol temperat, Absens in remota. Ama me fideliter, Fidem mean noto." translated means "The sun warms everything, Far away. Love me faithfully, Faith mean something known."
