Jacob Ming-Trent - "My Problem Right There" (Hands on a Hardbody)
Jacob is one of the many wonderful students I have had the great fortune to work with.
He also is one of the great voices. Expect to hear more from him.

That music always round me
Walt Whitman, from Leaves of Grass
That music always round me, unceasing, unbeginning -
yet long untaught I did not hear;
But now the chorus I hear, and am elated;
A tenor, strong, ascending, with power and health,
with glad notes of day-break I hear,
A soprano, at intervals, sailing buoyantly over the tops of immense waves,
A transparent bass, shuddering lusciously under and through the universe,
The triumphant tutti - the funeral wailings, with sweet flutes and violins -
all these I fill myself with;
I hear not the volumes of sound merely - I am moved by the exquisite meanings,
I listen to the different voices winding in and out,
striving, contending with fiery vehemence to excel each other in emotion;
I do not think the performers know themselves -
but now I think I begin to know them.
