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

    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 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

    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!!!

    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.

    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
