Lovely!
The most pleasing rendition of this song ever! Thank you.
Haven't heard this one in a long time! Sang this piece in high school chorus
Sublime! 😍
Thank you for the post. This is one of my favorite choral pieces.
Beautiful !!!
Thank you. My favorite from "Frostiana"
Frost at his best and singers at their best. Composer sublime.
Robert Frost (1874-1963)
In 1974 in a Boston suburban HS I sang this under Thompson's baton.
This was indeed masterful and breathtaking. I have sung this under Eric Nelson, who is simply amazing, before I even sang with its predecessors, the Gwinnett Festival Singers and the Atlanta Sacred Chorale way back in the day. I wept at this. Thank you.
Lovely
It's' been almost 40 years since I sang this. Bravo and brava, My only ask is louder volume on these recordings for playback. The Sopranos' opening "Oh" the first couple times were almost inaudible, and I had to strain to hear the pianissimo parts, with my everything turned to max. (P.S. making sure to note, no slagging on the Sops; it is an audio issue, not a talent issue.) I want my Appalachain Equality Chorus to do this next year. We were the Knoxville Gay Men's Chorus (and if you haven't seen OUR YT videos, shame on you!), but we have expanded, and have an SSA branch, with us together doing SATB this Christmas for the first time since we established. I wish you all well, and if any of you get up Knoxville way, check us out!
