My first composition for choir. sorry in advance for the cheap sounding choir samples. The sudden stops in the song are actually supposed to be a little more graceful than what is played. Sibelius is not able to do that kind of articulations. please enjoy!

Ach!

Chorals + synths + computer = horrible.

When doing chorals in electronics you really really really have to work hard on the articulation, vocal depth and variation in tones or it just sounds flat, like this one does.

The sudden stops don't help either.

The theme is calming enough, but it needs a lot of work before it will really go anymore. Chorals like this need a lot of depth and feeling behind them, as well as very careful weaving of the different elements. You have to really work on the smooth, calm of it and use more, lighter vocals.

Varying shades of the same colour, if you will. It's really the only way you can do it. The current backing and foreground is too limited and contrasting to work properly. That combined with the poor application of vocals really doesn't make this song sing.

However, the human voice is a goldmine, dig for all your worth and you'll miss it, but apply a bit of learning, understanding and time, and you can hit a jackpot.

Work on this, you have something there, it just needs a lot more work.

Working with Sibelius sound samples does limit me to how much I can control articulations and tambour. I sing in The UH Choir and I know what choir pieces sound like. i am not trying to imitate any typical choir but rather making my own sound. When I give this piece to a real choir I have the background as a composition student to bring out the sound that I want. Again I wish i could afford a sequencer to make the samples sound more human. As for the sudden stops, it is actually supposed to be a nice decrescendo to piano. Sibelius has a hard time with those types of musical expressions. Chorals + synths + computer = horrible but it's all I have sorry

Great
