This rings especially true for the acapella rendition of Josh Groban\u2019s 2003 hit, \u201cYou Raise Me Up,\u201d by Brigham Young University\u2019s (BYU) Vocal Point. Their version breathes fresh life into this inspirational song.<\/p>\n<p>In 1991, BYU students Dave Boyce and Bob Ahlander founded the BYU Vocal Point, a nine-member acapella group. The group swiftly gained popularity on campus, with their debut concert selling out.<\/p>\n<p>BYU Vocal Point\u2019s Ascent to Acapella Fame<\/p>\n<p>Since its inception, BYU Vocal Point has achieved numerous accolades, including a fifth-place finish in the third season of NBC\u2019s The Sing-Off. Their talent was further recognized in December 2018 when they announced a record deal with Universal Music Group\u2019s classical label, Decca Gold, on social media. Member Jason Bromley reflected, \u201cWe\u2019re ordinary college students doing extraordinary things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou Raise Me Up\u201d Music Video: A Scenic Vocal Journey<\/p>\n<p>The video for \u201cYou Raise Me Up\u201d is set against a stunning backdrop of mountains and valleys. It starts with a single, clear voice, soon joined by another in harmony, building a rich, layered sound. The group\u2019s voices are bright and pure, complemented by impressive percussive sounds created vocally.<\/p>\n<p>As the singers traverse the mountain landscape, their rendition of the song becomes an immersive experience. The tranquility of the setting almost becomes palpable, illustrating the power of music to transport the listener to another place.<\/p>\n<p>A Unique and Harmonious Rendition<\/p>\n<p>The vocalists\u2019 harmonies blend seamlessly, making distinguishing between the lead singers difficult. Their take on this widely covered song is refreshingly original, avoiding a simple imitation of the original. They infuse their unique style and arrangement into the song, adding a new hook towards the end that enhances the harmonies. The finale is bolstered by a choir of additional students, creating a profoundly powerful conclusion.<\/p>\n<p>This exceptional version of \u201cYou Raise Me Up\u201d by BYU Vocal Point is bound to become a favorite. Sit back and enjoy this unique and uplifting performance.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"You Raise Me Up | BYU Vocal Point (Josh Groban A Cappella Cover)\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/rcLl0A-lXIc?feature=oembed\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>College Singers Elevate Josh Groban\u2019s Hit to New Heights with Acapella Mastery An expertly performed&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12073","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"aioseo_notices":[],"views":68,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12073","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12073"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12073\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12073"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12073"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/used82.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12073"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
