Hang on to your seats folks... The PS22 Chorus of 2012 is officially in the house, as we present this absolutely soul-stirring version of "Set Fire To The Rain" by the beautiful Adele! Of course, major accolades must go to our soloist, Kiarah, who on her first solo of the year just completely knocks it out of the park! For long time PS22 fans, you will most likely appreciate knowing that Kiarah is the niece of 2004 chorus legend Deon ("Ain't No Mountain High Enough"), which kind of explains things.... She chose the song herself and sang it for me yesterday just before rehearsal. Her rendition was so compelling that we were forced to drop everything on our agenda at rehearsal yesterday in order to create this performance. The new chorus members equally blew me away here as well, learning their respective parts in literally one half an hour before the recording! Sometimes the best things in life happen spontaneously, and we think you'll agree this video illustrates the point perfectly...
UPDATE (10-6-11): Thanks to our amazing friend and supporter, Perez Hilton, for his resounding praise for our latest cover!
Absolutely amazing performance by Kiara and the chorus!
ReplyDeleteThis kind of exceptional talent seems to run in the family.
btw: Has Zyasia changed from alto to soprano? Don't think we didn't notice! ;-)
This was AMAZING! Words aren't enough to describe this song! Wonderful job!
ReplyDeleteWOW! All these beautiful, talented kids sharing their talent with us. How is that so many gifted kids go to that school? Is talent in the drinking water? Maybe you should bottle it and sell it! LOL
ReplyDeleteGreg, thank you for pouring your life out into those kids. Talk about influencing others and making a dent in society. I love your love for the children and your positive vibes going into them.
Love,
Oscar Mom
