I remember doing this in my high school choir. To this day, it's still one of my favorite songs of all time.

TrueWriter I did this song in middle school and I think I was the only person to understand the lyrics and really feel the song. I love it

Same here. Was a bass. Loved this and Handel's Hallelujah. I also just love the message of the song and its presentation.

Same I still love this song a decade later
I sang this every spring recital with my choir. Senior year, ten years ago, my choir teacher signed copies and handed them out. Tonight, he retires. We have alumni from his 35+ career coming to surprise him and sing this for him. I’m singing my part in the car crying. This song changed me.
the "no hallelujah" part gets me in tears every time

MieKayla Singleton I think it might be symbolizing a lack of resolution or acknowledgement
The line "let music never die in me, forever let my spirit sing" makes me cry everytime. And the piano part to it with the descending quarter notes that crunch when the key changes from Db to G#... oh my god... its amazing this piece... someone listening to this piece for the first time might go wow that was cool, but the people that can feel those words... (musicians of all kinds) they feel it deep down in their bones and it makes them feel like a caged bird has been freed. That's what this
I did this in high school and I can sing the notes from memory. God I miss it.

“Let music never die” always breaks me down in tears
Our choir got this song today and I absolutely fell in love
Sang this in highschool concert choir. My best and most favorite. Has so many precious memories of my choir instructor, The late Eugenia Wheeler. The passion she had playing the piano, and the passion of the choir..still have goosebumps thinking of it. This choir has done a marvelous job with this. You all should be proud! Absolutely beautiful!!!
The last song we ever sang in high school choir. All I remember is tears running down my face the whole time..
we just did this for our spring concert with all the choirs in our school. at the end, i got tears in my eyes and could barely even sing because it was so beautiful.
I miss singing this in my chorus class when I was in high school!!
Five years since I last sang this song with my choir. Tears every time. I still remember how my teacher conducted us
i am so privileged to be singing this in a choral concert.
We do this at every final concert, which is dedicated to the seniors graduating.
Absolutely love this song. Made our choir teacher cry at the concert. Absolutely beautiful piece.
I have performed this song twice that was over ten years ago!! To this day I can get up and sing every word and note as an Alto and a soprano I love it!!
Fell in love with the piece the day we started it in our advanced choir at my high school. Such a great piece.
Let music never die in US! !!!!
Sang this song in my high school choir. I love hearing it.
Piece does for us. This is our anthem, our freedom. Live it.
Throwback to that 4 year stretch when every highschool chamber choir did this song for all state
We just started learning this in my Cantori choir class. It is such a beautiful piece.
Been about a year since I first sang this song, and it still moves me.
The Chamber Choir at my high school is doing this! And I’m in it
I did this song in my advanced choir last year . Will always be one of my favorites
My choir is singing this for our spring concert... so beautiful
Just started this in my high school choir. Already in love with it. Had to listen to it again.
This song always moves me! it's so beautiful!! let music never die
I remember this song when I sang it in my freshmen year in high school

Probably one of the best choir songs to sing to really show off ones voice
this was the first song I ever did in my highschool choir and it is still my favourite it always will be i think
This is one of my all time favorite choral pieces!
I will always love this song, it is so beautiful.
this piece always has me so shook
bro I’m crying
we are currently learning this is my choir class. this helped a lot actually. I the bass is a lot stronger than in my small classroom, there's only about 5 bass and 15 alto, and 14 soprano, both first and second. maybe 6 tener. so the guys are a lot stronger here. its beautiful.
awe this brings back memories

This song was chosen for the ILMEA District choir last year and it was one of the pieces they chose for use to audition with and I didn't make it in but I remember everyone who had auditioned LOVED this song and we are still begging our choir teacher to let us do it a year later now
Love this very much
Doing this for my male singing group in my senior year of high school
This choir itself isn't all that bad but I wish the men were more powerful. Spite all of this, the song is still beautiful as all hell.

I realize this is a very late comment, but when we sang it, the guys were heavily outnumber. We had I think 8-9 tenors and I believe 7 or so bass. Alto and soprano were maybe twenty each. Cant recall
I only wish that the choir singing this did not sound so bright and sang with a more "o" shape (as my choir teacher says) but I digress, still a beautiful and moving song.
I sung this one. It was coed and we was fiyah!!!
are school district does this thing called “choral fest” where 5th graders, 8th graders and high schoolers sing, and we’re singing this bring tears to my eyes when we sing it all together
Didn't he write this in honor of his music teacher, who was murdered after one of their performances when he was in choir?
This piece was simply fantastic as was the choir singing it. The only criticism I have is that the girls need to darken their vowels. Besides that, just fantastic!
LOVE THIS ❤️
Im doing this right now with my middle school choir

Vowels? This must be a young choir
never thought I'd have to say this since I'm a bottom alto but not enough soprano...too much men in my opinion.

it's funny how you NEVER hear that. we had some strong Basses that year, and some voices that just stood out in the tenors for better or worse. I know I was singing a little louder than I should have.
