University Singers: COVER BAND
http://uwusingers.blogspot.com/2010/04/cover-band.html
Monday, April 12, 2010. So, it took me 6 tries to find a decent cover of "Livin' on a Prayer.". There was a Korean Bon Jovi cover band who had the right sound, but the vocals were off. There was a high school Bon Jovi cover band who really good for being in high school. There were some with terrible vocals. Some with accoustic instruments, some with this, some with that. COMMENTS FOR CREDIT: What makes a good cover band? Does the cover have to sound exactly like the original? Wed Apr 14, 01:38:00 AM.

University Singers: Messiah Cover
http://uwusingers.blogspot.com/2010/05/messiah-cover.html
Thursday, May 13, 2010. Here's the big stretch.tell me what you think. If a choir can perform covers of popular music by singing (with style) a sheet music arrangement of the song. Can a choir perform a cover of a "classical" piece of music? Here are a couple of obvious examples of what one might call covers. (Others might call them re-arrangements, or re-writes.). This next video is from "A Soulful Celebration.". And finally, from "Messiah Rocks." (DO NOT listen to his vowel placement.). Every song we s...

University Singers: Bret & Julie singing for the President of Latvia
http://uwusingers.blogspot.com/2010/03/bret-julie-singing-for-president-of.html
Saturday, March 27, 2010. Bret and Julie singing for the President of Latvia. Some of my most amazing experiences have come from singing in choir. Why else would I be meeting a president of a country.any country? Well, in this case, it's because of choir. On our recent choir tour to the Baltics, we were honored to perform for President Valdis Zatlers of Latvia. We made the evening news:. Mon Mar 29, 09:11:00 PM. So, was that just UW? Or did another choir join you? By the way, that is ridiculously awesome!

University Singers: Choral Covers
http://uwusingers.blogspot.com/2010/05/choral-covers.html
Monday, May 3, 2010. So, after all this talk about Cover Bands and Tribute Bands, here's the big question? Can a choir do covers? Can a choir be a "Cover Band"? Mon May 03, 09:49:00 AM. A choir can try. I think a group of people singing is obviously going to sound a lot different from the sound a band makes. Choirs can do covers, but they cant claim to be a cover band because choirs cant be described as bands. With that said, I think we can use our voices to mimic sounds pretty accurately! We basically a...
