VOCES8: Song Seven: 'Si Le Le' - Bobby McFerrin (Interactive Song)

[@bach984]

2:09 How lovable is Katie's ALTO voice? "Like" if you agree!

[@juliangrehan1380]

isn't it more soprano

[@robertkruger8180]

@@Branbran1993Agree. I always try to seperate her voice in the videos but either she sings very quietly or she is really good at blending in. Im no professional so i have no clue. There are only a few special occasions where shes poking out of the mix. So very nice to hear her completly by her own.

[@marydonohoe8200]

As a mezzo soprano (which is also Katie’s voice quality-basically soprano but a darker timbre), I have normally sung interior parts. These add richness, and can be a bit more challenging than exterior parts like high soprano and bass-so, fun! But they are also typically more difficult for a listener to hear and identify. That said, we do need to hear more of Katie’s beautiful voice!!

[@fingertips1]

I had an annoying Friday until I just came across this video. I sang along twice and now I'm really fine. The weekend can come now. Thank you for the nice music.

[@lesliewoodhull5383]

Your music is absolutely the most beautiful sound! I cannot get over the pureness of your vocal sound-& this from a former member of the Tabernacle Choir in Salt Lake City! 🤗

[@mulhatton]

Cool. Sounds African, with a twist. How we would harmonise this very quickly in South Africa: Deep bass line ... I I I, IV IV, V... V V, I The first bit Elanor was doing we would let the tenors do. Beautiful 🥂 🇿🇦

[@RinZ3993]

I would love to hear that version

[@PedrazziniAndrea]

@@RinZ3993 Just sing B-B-B / E-E / F# F# F# / B under their harmonization at 5:47

[@OrbiliusMagister]

Exactly my very first impression when I heard it some twenty years ago from the CD. I discovered Isicathamiya listening to Graceland, the Paul Simon and that grew on me ever since.

[@ferbr7242]

Have you heard "I Fagiolini and the Sdasa Chorale "?? Awesome!!!

[@marcenkin]

I'm sending it to my students to learn from home. They're gonna love it--thank you. Please do more!

[@andrewcarson714]

Today I heard this in the city of Bremen, Germany🇩🇪, drizzling rain, 15 degrees... And I was the only one dancing 💃🕺💃 at the bus stop... Left Valencia two days ago, 35 degrees, spent a day in Paris🇫🇷, 26 degrees, and currently 15 degrees, no sun, no pool🏊..., But music, su le le su le le..... A bit like singing in the rain... 😂🤣😂 Andrea did a good job explaining and teaching the 7 beat structure... Bless you❤, and enjoy the rest of the summer, wherever you go, it's in your heart, anyway... Bon voyage ❤

[@lass-inangeles7564]

Great fun! Love Bobby McFerrin. I went backstage once in LA and met his mom and hugged him. He is a national treasure!

[@claudiaramosmonteiro]

This is the sweetest, most thoughtful thing

[@hagenbutte]

When you're having an exhausting day and remember just in time that this exists! ❤

[@camilorojas1744]

The soprano in red (it isn't the title of a poem) is having a blast! She is contagious!!

[@madben9981]

Just found your videos today. I listened to Jesu, joy of...... multiple times and then this one multiple times as well. Beautiful, just beautiful. Thank you for lifting my spirits in this time of pandemic induced madness.

[@stevenpoe640]

Okay, so these are fellow human beings after all. Because from only watching dozens of their flawless mind-boggling performances, I had begun to conclude that they were celestial entities from worlds unknown.

[@RogerHale]

Great Video! Thank you for this simple demonstration from true experts!

[@YaHa-16-02]

Lifted my spirit. Thank you!

[@ianbrady1525]

Just wonderful. Thank you so much Voces8. We are doing this very piece next month with our Gospel Choir as a fund raiser for Autism in Rathfarnham Dublin Ireland. I absolutely LOVE your music. Acapella ALL THE WAY!!!!

[@domdeeva]

Génial, vraiment. Je n'ai jamais chanté dans un chœur avant, mais c'est vraiment chouette à suivre !!!

[@pensardosveces]

I loved this!!! Thank you guys!! You're amazing!!!

[@firstpresbyterianchurch-te4211]

Thank you so much!! For those of us who are missing choir, this is a lovely gift! Also like that you show the change in tones the same way I learned to years ago.

[@FloridiaPietro]

"Hi everybody" perfectly tuned on G and C

[@avelai9216]

Yes, I thought about this the whole time too ;) You can hear Andrea is a real musician, even when she speaks it sounds like singing!

[@garudel]

You are touching the heart, what else is more important ? Many thanks ;-)

[@daphnelhunt]

Took me back to summer camp as a kid. We would often learn round songs in three or four parts switching parts for each repetition. We did this in the main hall or outside around a camp fire where it would echo through the woods.

[@nilishamehta582]

This was wonderful! Thank you so much for uplifting our spirits. Please do more of these :) Grateful to you all for all the beauty you create. Love

[@littleo353]

Great performance!! Thanks. Great way to start the day!

[@BytebroUK]

Pretty extreme acoustics in that performance space! Won't often find that much natural reverb in a concert room. Good work all - really lovely.

[@nickshires9537]

Fantastic! A great idea and arrangement! You guys swing! x

[@tylercriss6435]

Legitimately some of my favorite musicians on the planet, recently. Great stuff, all of you guys.

[@tikkosandreas8921]

so fun, yet calming, that's why I love you guys

[@benhizzle]

The cherry on top is always the best part 😊

[@poriol]

Excellent, thanks for sharing that moment with us / allow us to share it with you ! Please keep inputting this kind of things !!!

[@cojun1974]

Thanks so very very much for this! I do so miss my choir rehersals (already now - and who knows how long it wil take...). So this really was like the perfect gift to me - to stand in my living room and sing with you guys. You defintely made my day!

[@BM-qn2tx]

Listening from Berlin, wonderful idea folks! I will probably have this in my head the whole day, ha. Well done and thanks!

[@charlesscott7748]

Well, what can you expect? VOCES8 brings out the happiness of the great Bobby McFerrin! This is wonderful! Would love to see them do this in a concert and get everyone on their feet.

[@MirantRazafisambatra]

Love you all. Such pure and beautiful sound!

[@alperrin9310]

Outstanding - but of course this what we've come to expect from everything that Voces8 does. Thank-you!

[@avelai9216]

And again, I followed your instructions and did everything at home, all by myself. Including the awkward somehow-dancing from 6:27. 😅 Singing 4 voices at the same time was hard - but I did it!

[@kayoochesneau2596]

Thx to you all of you I really love that kind of so good energy !!💚👍🧚

[@billcrook9602]

Just discovered them. Absolutely wonderful. Thank you

[@steveb1739]

Some South African Township beat and Barotseland music is in 7/4 time. Brings back great memories of listening to this genre of music in the 70's and 80's!

I must have missed the closet. Must be a distancing thing.

@@whoopjohn think they meant "closest" - I thought the "closet" might be a good echo-audio place to sing 😂
