UWO Chamber Choir- i carry your heart with me, David Dickau

The University of Wisconsin- Oshkosh's Chamber Choir singing David Dickau's i carry your heart with me, at their Spring 2010 Concert. Martin Vajgrt on piano.

[@richhigh7161]

the piano part gave me chills, especially the beginning. Just imagine if it was orchestrated, and the strings and wind section were sharing that part. AMAZING

[@allisongreenlee6862]

Sang this senior year at festival/clinic and our clinician was blown away. Great memories beautiful song brings me to tears now listening to it.

[@PleaseAlex07]

My chorus sang this for our member Christina's wedding. We were all in tears.

[@wishingonthemoon1]

We did this for our highschool chorus concert, and our director dedicated it to his wife. It was SO adorable, I could've cried. And now we are doing it for our districts concert on Friday, I am so psyched!

[@randikreger9530]

I have listened to this choir sang this song many many times and I always come back to it. It’s a gorgeous song and the choir sang it to perfection. The bases always give me in the shivers and the “tees” are perfectly Together. If only Mr. Cummings had written that poem for me.

[@aquilesboiv3271]

When I read this poem at school I fell in love with it. Such a beautiful poem:)

[@anthonyshoap10]

i love this song with all of my heart.

[@JordanBahrPian-UkePlayer]

at the last "is you", the bass note sends tingles down my spine. I love this piece!!

[@jlukersisnumber1]

This is such a powerful arrangement that I was so blessed to be able to sing years ago.

[@Tickletheballs]

The lyrics are by Edward Estin Cummings! He was an American poet who wrote approximately about 2,900 poems and this is one of them!!!

[@sydneyw7375]

this will always be one of my favorite choir pieces! i sang it in my freshman year and it was so fun to learn!

[@XNetwork100]

Sydney Warner I sung this song my senior year of high school and my choir teacher dedicated this song to his wife. I was trying so hard not to cry wile singing.

[@jsmcfly]

This is BEAUTIFULLLLLLLLLLLLL, really. I salute the director as well as the choir. Well done, made my night :)

[@pamphilia93]

This is an absolutely beauitful performance of a beautiful song! Well done!

[@drumlinedreamer]

finally, a really good recording to help me learn this for my choir! This is lovely and just what I needed. Such a beautiful piece.

[@Kristenbasore]

This is an absolutely beautiful version of this song! Lovely! :)

[@mackenziegamble8552]

truly good memories got a 1 at state contest large group performance with this song.

[@judywillis2345]

What matters is that this amazing and beautiful piece of art IS executed very well..ONE mistake?! That makes it even MORE BEAUTIFUL! NATURE RULES.

[@anthonyshoap10]

best version ive ever seen

[@everlasting9292]

Got to perform this my sophomore year of high school. It was seriously a privilege. This and Eric Whitacre's Lux Arumque are, in my opinion, the absolute most beautiful vocal pieces ever written. Maybe it's something about existing poetry put to music, I don't know. The poems alone are amazing and chilling, but the musical arrangements they have been set to are other-worldly.

[@TonyCruz_Music]

You know, I had the same thought. But now that i think about it, the lack of lower bass notes adds to the sincerity and subtlety of this piece.

[@jessicascorpio1]

From my favorite poem in the whole world! Thank you! :D

[@0Honey_Nut_Cheetos0]

I'm eating potato gnocchi.

[@yaheadah]

first soprano for the win .!!.!.! one of my favorite pieces of all time and i loved learning it even though the notes went higher than a kite LMAO

[@georgewashington1641]

This song is so beautiful.. the soprano 1 part was pretty intense. It was actually hard for me to hit those notes lmao,,, now that I’m out of high school I can no longer hit any good soprano 1 note, Ripperoni.. but my senior year this was the last song we sang and the senior girls wore no shoes and the guys wore no pants! We obviously had robes down to our shins but it was hilarious when we were getting our senior awards ,, when a guys name was called they would step down the riser and accept the award but they didn’t have any pants on so it was just their shoes , socks and the choir robe,, it was the best senior night ,,truly I miss it a ton and would love to re-live choir class.

[@Tooktabella]

I like this version!

[@jonje1993]

We're learning this song at Choir Camp! It's so beautiful!

[@KaYybearr15]

Amazing

[@Karlon1996]

I sang this song with my concert choir and it was AMAZING I kinda cried a little bit..

[@yellowgirl05]

we are going to sing this for graduation at my highschool :) i absolutely love it!

[@inspiredbyteaching]

excellent piano playing.

[@connormccaslin1586]

Andrew Rosenblum they messed up right before “here is the deepest secret”

[@101Ragghianti]

I'm learning this song. It's very beautiful. I was Soprano 2, like everyone else in my class, but now I'm a Soprano 1. The way it is done in the video is too slow like @xx13stephzz13xx said, but it's fantastically put together. This is the only video that is actually the song by David Dickau that suited me (there aren't many). Great choir. Bravo!

[@4everblushing]

Sang this song 2 years in a row to with with my Ex in chior. Things will be so different without him this year

[@bossybabechicakeyjujumumif3431]

Beautiful morning 💕💕💜💜

[@SingOutLoud92]

I miss being a soprano. Hopefully someday I'll be able to sing in the Chamber choir at UWO =]

[@volleyballplaya1234]

I get to sing this in two concerts next week :D

[@emu168]

I want the piano for this!!

[@JCAVIEZELMUSIC]

@NerdistColony It is SSAATTBB but only in a couple places, for the most part just single SATB.

[@xstarmanx]

Whoever does the camera work, Iris up, turn the Gain down. That static noise is the gain up too high. Irising up. can get the same look but less interference noise on the recording. :D

[@galesayers34]

sounds way better in E Major. Beautiful

[@FABULOUSxME13]

Sopranos are bomb!

[@fernautilus9863]

i want so badly to "like" this video, but it's at 333 likes 😣

[@MrPokeBass]

Its a good piece musically, the bass parts should be lower though. Feels like I'm singing tenor...

[@MrPokeBass]

I have to sing this for my audition piece for Districts... I hate the arrangement. Dickau wrote the bass line too high, and we are not allowed to make accommodations for lower vocal ranges. I am stuck singing what feels like tenor, when I have a better lower end as I can sing with Tim Riley and it really strains my voice, and gives an unfair advantage to those more skilled on the higher end. This is a very good recording though. Thanks.

[@mcglitter07]

True!!! The bass line is almost feels like tenor 2. Only baritones will comfortable to sing this.

[@orangecouch]

Try singing that first SOP line!!! ;)

[@NRGearz]

@Tony Cruz I still dont like it, especially for a bass audition... My comfortable range is a full octave down

[@iwanabana]

the triplets are so not triplets lol

[@alexhunter5340]

They are drag triplets

[@deondrej.jackson8129]

Triplets are so hard to execute especially in slow pieces

[@grimsonsouls855]

Good up until it got to True on the ladies part, sounded terrible to me; pitchy. But other than that it was beautiful! And yes I know how difficult that note is I'm a soprano 1 and my choir sang this song.
