@@DanielElderMusicWe loved Ballade to the Moon. We were interrupted by school closures due to Covid but finally performed it, and the audience response was great.
All three songs from Nocturnes are so gorgeous on their own but when you listen to them back to back as they were intended you get a better picture of the story Daniel Elder paints with these compositions! Cheers from someone who got to sing Ballade to the Moon in state in high school 10+ years ago! It was also the final song I sang with my high school choir and we were all fighting tears the whole time.
I once lived in the house Twinkle Twinkle Star was written in. I have to say, this arrangement invokes the same feeling, with the same energy I remember surrounding the house. Enchanting, peaceful and timeless.
This is a demo by the commissioning ensemble, and the rights belong to them. Basically you need someone to commercially record it to get it on streaming platforms. Hopefully one day, but commercial choral recordings just don't happen all that often-few can afford it.
I sang this song 5 years ago and I didn't remember the name. Today I finally found it and I'm in tears. I loved this song, and I still do. It brings me so much memories
Sir, what does that even have to do with anything? Please do not sully this work of art with politicized drivel - the majority of us wish to judge this piece by its *own* merit. Have you tried listening to this without applying those regurgitated sociopolitical conceits you carry with you? It's a different approach than I'm sure you're used to, but as someone who used to dwell in a similar frame of mind, it's proven infinitely more rewarding.
@@pihuichoazulWhile in other circumstances, I would ask you to define who you think "wokers" are and why they purportedly don't care about merit, this is not the right comments section for that discussion. This is a very, very good song that I'd hope to sing in one day, and for the sake of not spoiling it with crass behavior let's leave it at that.
Thank you for uploading this! It's a great and powerful song and I am happy to sing this song in my choir. I like hearing other choirs sing songs we do, as it sounds differently and gives me insight on how it might sound and what can be dine differently.
