New music on the spring concert

Hi guys,

Here are a few YouTube videos of choirs singing the new/newer pieces on our spring concert. First up, the excellent Amabile Choirs of London, Ontario singing Jonathan Quick's arrangement of "Loch Lomond." For some reason, the Amabile video was removed, so here's the Southern California Vocal Association 2007 Men's Honor Choir instead. No, we're not going to do the beat box stuff at the end.



Here's a little-known collegiate group, the Cornell Glee Club under the direction of assistant conductor John Rowehl, singing Steven Sametz's "Not Heat Flames Up and Consumes."



Here's an unidentified high school district honor choir singing Dwight Bigler's challenging arrangement of "Blue Tail Fly." I'm guessing the video was shot by Zachary B. Krause's mother...



Here's the Massillon, Washington High School Men's Chorus singing "Daemon Irrepit Callidus." It was the only clip I could find of a men's choir singing it. If you can find another one, let me know and I'll post it.



And finally, here's "Away From the Roll of the Sea" sung by the MMEA All-State Men's Chorus. I don't know which "M" it is, though. It could be Missouri, Massachusetts, Maryland, Minnesota or Maine.



Enjoy!
