i must thank this song, for it taught me the true meaning of choral music, of singing. togetherness. my attitude prior to my performance of this song was that of standing out. i wanted to feel special when i sang, i wanted the song to be mine. now i know that it is not my song, nor is it the composer’s song, it is the audience’s. matching those vowels perfectly to create the overtones that most people don’t even acknowledge. singing the same note throughout an entire piece as a bass so the sopranos can soar. giving the listener an experience. that is music. thank you sarah hopkins.

I had the pleasure of doing overtones on this song. I was "the man" in choir for the next four years of high school just because I could overtone. It sounds so awesome!

Sang this in high school and listened to MANY recordings since then, but these are the best overtones I've ever heard in this piece

Absolutely stunning! Very nice overtones, nothing stood out; it was very smooth and blended. Very soothing. Well done!

I heard the Sonoran Desert Chorale perform this live recently, and I was amazed at how supernatural this piece is. Hopefully I will get to sing this sometime.

Very haunting and a fantastic inspiration for me when I wrote my book (chapters: the end of "Anomaly" and the beginning of "Nikki's Dream"). If my book ever becomes a movie then I would want this used for the appropriate scene.

Only bad thing about being the singer, you cant always do the best or your favorite part. But the end effect is stunning

I still like the performance by Chanticleer best, but this is the next highest I've heard in quality and pacing. Other renditions I've heard sound like a high school glee club with too fast of a pace and a lack of smoothness. Nice job.
