Voces8 "A Boy and a Girl" | Voice Teacher Reaction

[@sonadorroto9124]

Eric has 'reacted' to this himself. About a year ago in a training video for his virtual choir, he showed this as a perfect example of how to sing the piece. He was visibly deeply moved, with tears in eyes and a look of deep gratitude for giving such wonderful expression to his work.

Oh wow, that’s amazing! I don’t blame him…this was absolutely stunning!

Chris, if you're into something a bit heavier, Voces8's recording of Britten's Ode to St. Cecelia is absolutely breathtaking. The clarity that's possible with just one voice on a part is amazing. I've sung the work many times over 40 years, and there are whole lines I never even knew existed. It's absolutely the best performance I've ever heard. Voces8 are just incredible.

Thanks for the reaction, Chris!

Thanks for watching! :)

I would highly recommend listening to them perform Lux Aeterna (Nimrod) by Elgar. One of my favourite pieces of classical music interpreted so beautifully by Voces8

I’m so glad you’re doing more VOCES8 content! May I recommend their version of Caledonia? You might be able to find a few live performances of this song here, and it’s amazing!

Of course! Love a choral setting :)

I have sung this under Eric's direction in 2014. This is one of my favorite's to sing. Voces8 sings it perfectly...as always. ;-)

Check out Voces8 singing Send in the Clowns. Beautiful difficult arrangement.

I didn't know that Alan Shore was a member of VOCES8!! lol, beautiful piece, though.

6:50 well since this is eight parts, technically only one per part for this which is EVEN crazier

The guy with the long hair is the only American in the group. The rest are from the U.K.

[@creativecrewfam]

Oh wow!
