Agree! No auto tune at all and pure choir voice singing. Their vocal sending are delivered well. And a lady's vocal at 2:55 short jump climax nailed it. Good one for the main vocal 2:23 , and 2:45 Otw for climax 1:32. The beginning to transcend.
This soloist just nailed this and the choir resonates beautifully as well. I have been searching hard for a soloist that has a real feel for Kiswahili and I think this young man does. Though I have enjoyed other performances, not least of all the performance in London from Tommy Lamb, I think this is the best I have heard. Though I really appreciate Christofer Tin's orchestra music to this piece, I find that the orchestras often drown out the singers. Not so here. This version is so wonderful. My new go-to comfort performance. Thank you. Thank you. I hope the joy of music fills you all with peace all of your lives.
Simplesmente chorei..compulsivamente. Gratidão a Deus por me escolher. A interpretação desses jovens tocou minha alma. Que Deus os abençoe abundantemente e as suas famílias. Lindos! Emocionante. Parabens, Maestro pelo lindo e abençoador trabalho com este Coral.
This is an excellent version of this beautiful Chris Tin song of Our Lords Prayer. This small choir did a fantastic job and the lead soloist was right on point.
Search “baba yetu civilization 4” before this performance that was the best I had heard it. Now, I’m thinking this is the best, though since the Civ 4 version is a professional recording it does bring something to the table.
Weird to have such a high lead on this piece but the whole sound is GREAT!! My honor choir instructor wanted to cut this piece but when I insisted I had spent months learning the lead, the group ended up performing it and it ended up bringing down the house. Its such a show stopping peice!!!
Amo este louvor,e muito lindo está sinfonia de vozes,tão harmoniosas,anda se tiver oportunidade,quero ver fazer uma orquestra nesta versão baba yetu,em portugues
“Baba Yetu” is essentially the Lord’s Prayer sung in Swahili. The title translated means “Our Father”. The lyrics are as follows: Baba yetu, yetu uliye Mbinguni yetu, yetu amina! Baba yetu yetu uliye Jina lako e litukuzwe. Utupe leo chakula chetu Tunachohitaji, utusamehe Makosa yetu, hey! Kama nasi tunavyowasamehe Waliotukosea usitutie Katika majaribu, lakini Utuokoe, na yule, muovu e milele! Ufalme wako ufike utakalo Lifanyike duniani kama mbinguni. (Amina) Our Father, who art in Heaven. Amen! Our Father, Hallowed be thy name. Give us this day our daily bread, Forgive us of our trespasses, As we forgive others Who trespass against us Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one forever. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done On Earth as it is in Heaven. (Amen)
Finally. A good and confident soloist. Not just some frightened looking white boy like “am I singing this right.” Good job to the soloist singing with confidence
It doesn't matter what color of skin the soloist has! Shame on you. What matters in this case is the singer's affinity for speaking Kiswahili fluidly - maybe he is a Kiswahili speaker in fact, I daresay this soloist has a wonderful voice, a real feel for the language and a beautiful delivery. It has nothing to do with the color of his skin my friend.
Not his native language. He learned Kiswahili for this song. Music is universal. Anyone with a heart and respect for the music could sing in any language.
@@octaviaoliver4523 I'm a bit fascinated by this melody and song/prayer and I have a friend who is a native speaker of Kiswahili who has taught at university/ written text books etc. and he thought this particular delivery was excellent... we listened to many renditions together and the others lack something, I'm not sure what. I do agree that usually it is very possible for someone to deliver a beautiful rendition of a song in another language even though they don't speak it, but for some reason this particular song is difficult. I do appreciate your getting back to me. It is very interesting that this soloist pulled this off soooo well even though he is not a speaker of Kiswahili. When I am down and need a pick-me-up - this is what I listen to. So grateful someone uploaded it to youtube. Bless them whoever it was.
of course it doesn't. less than a quarter of the voices, completely different environment with different acoustics, only percussion and voice, audio was not captured from professional mics nor mixed/edited. and yet, this one moves me more than the super produced pasteurized versions.
from their uconn practice vid to here, that soprano who is to the right of the soloist with the long brown hair is goddamn amazing. the curly haired girl two from his left also. i mean obviously this whole crew is A+ but every time i watch one of theirs, which im pretty sure ive been doing for literally YEARS, those two gals are just like.. standouts. not easy to do in a choral group THIS good. yo OP @aaube2659 if you know those girls still, please tell them they left a mark! i truly love this and the practice video yall did years ago. just so good.
