A strong acapella song may enhance any type of music, whether it’s through the vocalists’ capacity to capture the listener’s interest or the absence of extraneous instruments that draw attention to the lyrics.
This is especially true of Brigham Young University’s (BYU) Vocal Point’s acapella rendition of the 2003 hit song “You Raise Me Up” by Josh Groban. They give this lively song a fresh new energy.
Students Dave Boyce and Bob Ahlander founded the acapella group BYU Vocal Point in 1991. After selling out their first performance, the foursome rose to prominence on campus.
In addition to placing fifth in the third season of NBC’s The Sing-Off, BYU Vocal Point has won other prizes since its formation.
They gained greater recognition for their talent in December 2018 when they announced on social media that they had inked a record deal with Universal Music Group’s Decca Gold, a classical label.
Member Jason Bromley remarked, “We’re just regular college students doing amazing things.”
The “You Raise Me Up” music video is an intense vocal excursion.
The “You Raise Me Up” music video is set against a stunning panorama of mountains and valleys.
A single clear voice begins the recording, then a moment later another one harmonizes with it to provide a rich, multi-layered sound.
Together with their bright, clear voices, the ensemble creates incredible vocal percussion sounds.
As they travel over the hilly terrain, the vocalists’ rendition of the song becomes more immersive.
The scenario almost devolves into an excessively calm state, illustrating the way in which music has the power to transport listeners.
Their harmonies work so effectively together that it’s difficult to determine who the lead singers are.
Instead of merely reproducing the original, they provide a remarkably fresh take on this widely covered song.
Their unique style and arrangement are incorporated into the song with a new hook at the end that enhances the harmonies. The crescendo is bolstered by an additional student chorus, making for an extraordinarily powerful conclusion.
You’re going to adore BYU Vocal Point’s incredible rendition of “You Raise Me Up.” While unwinding, take enjoy this unique and moving performance.
A 32-year-old woman was attacked by a polar bear after she jumped into their enclosure at the Berlin Zoo.
On Friday, while the polar bears at the Berlin Zoo were being fed, a 32-year-old woman went into their cage and was attacked by them.

At the Berlin Zoo, while the bear was being fed, the woman sprang over the bars and hurt her back, arms, and legs.
One of the bears attacked the victim on the arms and legs several times, even though six zookeepers tried to distract the four predators.
The victim was saved by the zookeepers who were able to frighten off the bear.
After undergoing surgery to heal her wounds, the 32-year-old woman is currently recuperating in the hospital.
It was then revealed that she is a teacher who had become hopeless due to her inability to obtain employment.
