Choral Music soothes the soul...

It may seem like a weird thing to say, but the fact that it's that quality of singing while *sitting* makes it more impressive to me.

I am so thankful young people are still interested in making old music.

Fun fact: the composer of this piece is younger than hair metal
CoeurFranc
This sounds classical but is in fact from a living composer who is 43 year old.

Choir culture is really big in Latvia. Some of the best choirs from there. Huge in classical music too

Ine time o stumbled onto vespers at an old.church in York. I'm not even religious but the music was so moving it brought tears
ArtsyChelsea
Thank you. My son was hot & tired & inconsolable today. The moment I put this on he was transfixed and fell asleep in my arms. It was magic.

I'd love to join and I love to sing, but apparently I'm tone deaf and people constantly ask if I can sing Tenor. ....Tenor twelve miles away

I love this type of music. Listen to it when I drive to work at 5am. Feels all mystical and spooky.

You like mystical and spooky? Check out Hildegard von Bingen. And Tallis Scholars.

genre is choral music; i too like this type of music; like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ctci_zhGhvY
TurangaLeelaIsMyMom
Have you heard this one? One of my fave from college chorale. https://youtu.be/i3XPrYx8iqU
TurangaLeelaIsMyMom
Also, do you listen to Eric Whitacre’s works? STUNNING.
pretzelbetzel
Came here to recommend Whitacre, his music is so fun to sing
TurangaLeelaIsMyMom
Have you listened to the recording of his singers at the iTunes Fest a few years ago? Wrecking Ball is awesome.
pretzelbetzel
Haven't yet but now I will!
Anarchduke
you should try listening to this while masturbating

It is beautiful but I’d fall asleep driving to this!

I was going to recommend it if i didnt see it, it was one of my favorite pieces to perform in choir
Makerofroads
Eric Whitacre, his light and gold stuff is really good
OtterAvalanche
I like to listen to the Halo: ODST OST for this reason lol its the best music to listen to to drive when the sun isn't up
bhobby1212
To pump myself while I drive to work at 5:00 a.m. I listen to Frank Sinatra's version of My Way. Spine chilling blood pumping
PyroAvok
How bout Christopher Lee's version?
bhobby1212
I'm a metal fan, but Sinatra's version is amazing

I too love color coded metal; currently listening blue and orange metal. I like how they fit together imo.

Why not both? https://youtu.be/mKG8BR292oo

I love listening to good metal, so I don't listen to any black metal.

Melodic black metal is nice

Also really mystical and spooky
WoefulWombat
Too angry for me.
Waldschrein
As a person who listens to a lot of angry music I wouldn't call black metal angry. More edgy. "Hammed Smashed Face" is anger. "Black Crow On
Waldschrein
A Tombstone" is hamfisted edge. Its just trying so fucking hard to be edgy. You don't need to be a tryhard to be angry.

Maybe try some of the folkier stuff? Panopticon, Falls of Rauros, Wayfarer really hit the spot for me, they're not too aggressive.

Choir was the best part of high school. Amazing music.
fuhsmc
Not in HS for me. It was required in elementary school and for my college degree (BM Classical Performance). College bit was cool though.
oaberbyamd
Same here, brings back really good memories.
darksniperknight
I chilled with a gang and shot guns in high school. School was ghetto as fuck... by that I mean I was in jrotc, rifle team.
darksniperknight
Still a ghetto public school though.

I played the piano for our choir classes in HS. We got to go to so many places; great fun.
LanttuLaatikko
It would have been for me too but I was ALWAYS made to sing the highest parts, though, as I only discovered after years of unlearning 1/2
LanttuLaatikko
the stuff I was taught in school, I am actually an alto. Still struggling with being self-conscious when singing, but getting better. 2/2
pleasesendcows
I did advanced choir in HS but quit because I was bullied. Always wanted to try again but I haven't sung in so long I lost my singing voice
BandicootCummerbund
As a music director, there are a lot of churches who would love to have you in their choir, or community groups if church isn't your thing.
BandicootCummerbund
You can always work back into it, no need to be perfect! Sorry that you had a bad experience in HS

Let’s find your voice again! Imgur digital ensemble, assemble! (This isn’t a thing to my knowledge but it could be?)

3 years at University for me but it was the best experience for me. Got to perform with many choirs and travel many places.
mindstorm8191
I was in band all through highschool. Twenty years out I still remember some of those songs. Great music is hard to find
MsDifficulty
Same, i remember how to play most of our songs during marching band. Some songs that stick out to me are hounds of spring & shepherds hey
fuhsmc
HoS is classic, and enjoyable for me being a hornist.
MsDifficulty
Oh nice did you happen to play songs of sailor and sea, had a beautifil french horn opener

Radix865
Is that a way to emulate castratto? Since they can't "make" them anymore.
SaunterVaguelyDownward
But there are people who can reach notes like that, they’re called sopranos.
Radix865
The way I've understood is that it's not the same.
sf111
They 'can' make them. But then.. you know.. jail and stuff; and i'd like to think this is by far the artistically better of the two options.
Vaanhalen
Drugs. Get a wokie who put her prepubescent children on puberty blockers
ingelri
kind of pointless to chop someone's balls off when you can just get prepubescent children to sing tbh
Radix865
It was more cruel than pointless, even if they were valued afterwards. But I'd imagine kids having trouble with full opera.
Radix865
And the training apparently was intense, and they'd only have few years of active career before puberty.
