The sopranos did that on the last note!!! A big kudos to the tenors too for shining brilliantly in their final section.
Whos here in 2024?

Return to a land called paraiso A place where a dying river ends No birds dare fly over paraiso No space allows them to endure The smoke that screens the air The grass that's never there Refrain 1: And if I could see a single bird What a joy! I try to write some words and create A simple song to be heard by the rest of the world II.I live in a land called paraiso In a house made of cardboard floors and walls I learned to be free in paraiso Free to claim anything I see Matching rags for my clothes Plastic bags for the colds Refrain 2: And if empty cans were all I have What a joy! I never fight to take someone else's coins and live with fear like the rest of the boys Chorus: Paraiso, help me make a stand Paraiso, take me by the hand Paraiso, make the world understand That if I could see a single bird What a joy! This tired and hungry land could expect Some truth and hope and respect From the rest of the world Repeat Refrain 2

I have never heard a choir sing directly to my spirit before. This is out of this world.
The tenors before the finale, wow. Thank you for touching my soul. It's a cliche but yes, I'm proud being a Filipino. Hats off! 💙

I was looking for renaissance madrigals, but found this. Not such a bad accident. We are quite far from all the contomporary stressing noise! =)
Amaze with the tenor, but sopran alto and bass also great!!
Just finished watching and listening to their recital a few hours ago in Singapore. To be honest I've never thought a chorus could be this beautiful. Harmonies, vocal techniques were so clean and such a high standard. This is one of the songs they performed I like the most. If you ever have a chance to watch them live, please go. The sensation is incomparable no matter how good your sound system is.
Greetings to our dear one and only Madrigal Filipino Artists. One of the countrys best singers that raise up our pride and Filipino values showcasing the unique beauty of our musical talents, people and culture. Wow ... thanks indeed and Congratulations to Madrigal singers. I heartily Salute to you indeed. Keep going and soar high into the whole world the unique beauty of your talents and music. God Bless.
As a bass singer, I admire those bass here.. Ang galing lahat.. harmony and blending.. ❤️
as usual , theyre really the best singers in the Philippines, Mabuhay. wish you all the best
You guys cannot keep these angelic voices for yourself. Please come to JAKARTA, INDONESIA. Huge fans of yours are now patiently waiting.

GODBLESS ALWAYS MADZ 💖 HEAVEN ON EARTH ANG FILLS AS ALWAYS.
We feel sad when old members leave; then new members come and produce a sound as beautiful as this. Bravo, Madz!
Ang ganda. Ang sarap sa pakinggan. Para ka talagang nasa paraiso yung ang gaan gaan sa pakiramdam.
Wow... 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ I will try to expressively write what I felt as limited words do I have. The selection of the soloists is amazing. Both expresses their sadness and desire to improve this world just by the simplicity of their voices. Their voices simple as it sounds expresses a unique blend of meekness, humility and strength. I appreciate the restraint done by the Sopranos as it gives the spotlights to other voice parts expressing variety which helps in the variation of dynamics. The Bass was so smooth it sounded like a softer basoon which most people may not hear but is integral to the harmony structure. What interest me the more is the Tenor part. The interesting part is the change of sound color. The initial verses and chorus sounds like a sweet and gentle cello. Towards the end it shifted to a bright brasswind instrument. Normally arrangers don't allow choral Tenors to sing higher notes as it overpowers other voices and it sounds more like an elephant in most cases. But wow these Tenors are exemption to that rule. The ability of the Tenors to sing a restrained high note gave a smooth brasswind sound color. To me, in my humble opinion, the arrangement of the Tenor expressed a Victory cry to change the world. The control is amazing as it did not overpower other voices but instead added a push or lift making the sound combination more complex. My attention does not always notice the alto, especially if they dont have a solo part, sorry. If I didn't hear the alto... it means they are very good. The alto is like the butter in 2 hot toasted bread of Soprano and Tenor... Higher voices tends not to gel with each other if the alto is not good. In this case I heard a uniform zen of crescendo and variation of harmony dynamics which tells us that the Altos are of high caliber. Mabuhay.....❤❤❤❤ more OPM songs.

I’m in total wreck with auditory bliss. So beautiful.
Grabe! Speechless!
I heard them perform this song in Regina, Saskatchewan. Of course naiyak ako!! As it is an OPM performed outside the country, and til now, the song still rings true for most Filipinos.. salute to an excellent performance (as usual) , and thank you Madz, for raising the Philippine flag high wherever you perform.❤️ i hope your dream of building the Madz Camp for filipino musicians come true!
