Re: Beyond

No surprises there :) as a hardcore music streamer, Libera's CDs are literally the ONLY music in hardcopy I'll ever buy. Or any music I'll buy outright for that matter.

Re: Hello from Japan!

Hi Clara! Welcome to this community of dedicated Libera fans :D I might have met/seen you at the Osaka concert, especially since I was also at the stairwell area where Josh was after the concert. Anyways, hope to see you around!

Re: Japan 'Beyond' Tour - October 2018

It was a pleasure meeting you in Japan, Tom! I wholeheartedly agree with you that being able to enjoy Libera performances with fellow fans elevates the entire concert experience. Thanks also for your remarks about Neo and Emanuele, I'd sure keep an eye out for the supporting vocalists when I attend ...

Re: Japan 'Beyond' Tour - October 2018

This is largely a repost of my thoughts posted on Twitter a few days ago, but hopefully this typesetted version (with some minor editing and additional comments) is easier to read. Introduction It’s a wrap! The 4 day Japan tour is most definitely a resounding success. It was 3 years ago when I atte...

Re: Japan 'Beyond' Tour - October 2018

Thanks, Surpinto :) And indeed, fan_de_LoK, great to have such detailed information about the Halloween event :) One thing I forgot to mention about the concerts: the flute-player Eimear McGeown. Especially her intro to Wayfaring stranger I found to be a wonderful addition. The song has a dramatic ...

Re: Beyond

In Paradisum [/size] Since we had the music video first and this piece was also sung in concerts, we know the song already. But that does not make the song any less powerful when listening again and again and again. Rocco’s voice leads the song masterfully and the piece is very touching and elevati...

Re: Beyond

Neither song is either Alex. And so the soloist speculations go on and on until the bitter good end. :lol: I'm quite convinced it's Gabe and Leo on Do Not Stand . It sounds like this to me and moreover, I don't see any reason for changing last December concert's duet constellation of these two. I h...

Re: Beyond

I have just listened intently to 'Beyond' in its entirety, and I think my favorite song now is "Do not stand at my grave and weep". Alex Gula's voice is impeccably smooth, pleasant and brimming with emotion; the fact that he sings at a slightly lower register than the original Tom Cully / ...

Re: Beyond

Wow! Oliver W-R and Daniel White as soloists. Seems like this generation of soloists are hugely talented and numerous, since we already have Leo/Rocco/Alex G/Merlin in the mix. Exciting! :o :D

Re: Hi there!

Hi Surpinto! I'm happy to share my story. Basically when i was in year 7 (6th/7th grade in the US??), I was selected to join my school's treble choir. So one day, my choirmaster decided to show us clips of other choirs performing a variety of songs from different musical genres, and the last clip j...

Re: Beyond

That’s a great find, thanks Patrick and John! Is the soloist Rocco by any chance?
