    I've been a signer all of my life. With perfect pitch I can appreciate the sound you are producing. I usually compose the music as it is sung and come up with part that is not written. Voces8 is different. It is perfection, particularly with the voice mix that includes the three women. The compositions are flawless. The best blend of voices on the planet. The best bass I have ever heard.

    There’s a lovely story on what came first, the musical note, or a human singing voice. I imagine it’s that lair where divinity touches humanity. Imagine being the first humans to sing and then align to a sound they feel throbbing from within. To match a tone of this deep mighty presence. To then flash forward where those have passed it on, and schooling and academia became part of it and now it’s a mastery. I agree. The human voice is probably thee most touching instrument or power. It’s inexpressible.

I think it is the best "Flower Duet" I have ever heard, where the soloists are actually MESHING beautifully, rather than trying to crush each other, as I hear many other even world class soloists doing on this exquisite piece of music.. I put you in at the beginning of the duet, for a quick dip, if that is all you (or anyone else) might care for. If you choose to listen, I hope you enjoy it: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dWWOrpd6qNCxj6Q.html

    Love in all its manifestations conquers evil, because it is the creative force. Fear not. It is the way the universe is constructed. The greatest challenge is to respond to those in fear ( of losing power over others) with love. This is not approval of their actions, but recognition of the broken place it comes from - a wounded human who feels unlovable. If you can, send them love and compassion. A wise friend once said, Minds don't change minds - hearts change minds.

    Wow. I've heard the original Version of Enya. Because I couldn't believe it. Enya is very....... very!! nice! But... The mind-blowing blonde elf at the beginning is so ingrecedibly stunning... I love her voice, expecially in this Part of the Lord of the Rings. My heart was melting! It sounds so light, but I know, it's one of the hardest parts in the composition, to make it sounds so easy. In my expectation, it couldn't be much more better! But the crystal clear Soprano from the 2m-woman broke it all! Such a beautiful high but extremly soft voice I've never heard before! The tenor/bass-part is so relaxing after the Soprano Solo... Exactly in the right place; not just another piece in Soprano Solo, but beautiful chord progressions with suspensions... I got a nice goosebump with that deep voices! I love it! I hope my german-english is understandable enough, to make clear, how much I love this version! More Emotions than Enya, unexpectedly diverse voices... Keep going on, please! Your arrangements of Bach (Jesus bleibet meine Freude) I love the most! (Is it a Harpsichord in the background?)
