I think this was a great reaction, but your volume was so much lower than the volume of the Voctave video that I had to keep turning it up and down to hear you. I'm interested to see what other reactions you'll do... maybe some Pentatonix?

At the time of this recording, Kirsten and Jeremy were engaged, so yes there was a lot of chemistry. I don’t know what happened but they broke up. However, Jeremy is credited with suggesting that Jamey solidify the group of core members and has a hand in them naming it Voctave because it’s a Vocal group and they sing many Octaves. Keep up the great reviews. More Voctave please!

Nothing Voctave can't do, can't blend, can't wall of sound! Love the weaving on the tag. Love how Kirsten and Jeremy are blown away by what they are hearing from Voctave (and Kate)! The little behind the scenes of this in on KZitem and it's super cute. I'll have to check and see if you've analyzed VoicePlay or Geoff Castellucci. VP fans LOVE some analysis!

Great reaction! #Voctave are phenomenal whether with featured artist(s) or on their own; it's vocal perfection every time! Please more Voctave - pick anything and you're guaranteed to be awed! Some of my (non-Christmas) favourites: You Will Be Found - done separately during Covid, with a few friends! Somewhere - a fantastic arrangement highlights each of their vocalists Disney Lullabies - wishing my kids were young again for this one The Prince of Egypt Medley - perhaps their best work; it's audio only, but trust me, you won't care!

From what I understand, Jamey Ray of Voctave arranged this in whole, including the soloists parts and harmonies. I just think he should get all the credit and Voctave in general should have more credit than just being “back up” to Kirsten and Jeremy ❤

Great Reaction! I can't wait to take this Voctave journey with you. We saw them Live and they were amazing. Please react to as many as you can including O Come all ye faithful and You will be Found. Plus, 10's of others, they are all great. Then please react to Marcelito Pomoy 'The Prayer.' from the wish bus. You won't regret it.

@@DropTheMIke-Now Two things, speaking of smiling, that is a tried and true technique to keep the vocal forward and on the bright side. Second did you hear how high Kate went to cover that last note? You have to listen very closely and it comes out at the very end as an 'echo' of the chord. She is a spectacular talent and I never get tired of hearing her voice. Between the two extreme voices the high soprano and deep bass they really form a whole that pushes me to tears when I hear them both doing what regular humans cannot.

Great reaction, especially for a relative newcomer! 😊 You clearly have a great ear! You can't go wrong with anything from Voctave. They are, in my opinion, the tightest, most amazing a cappella chorus out there. With 11 members (usually) they have a fuller sound than the "other three" major a cappella groups... Pentatonix, VoicePlay, and Home Free. All four are top tier, amazing, incredible, etc. etc.... but Voctave has twice the voices (+1). They are best known for their Christmas music and their Disney covers. They also do a LOT of other stuff. I personally LOVE their Andrews Sisters' Medley, The Impossible Dream, and Over the Rainbow. I subscribed and liked. I'm in on the "ground floor, with subscriber #11 and like #50. Best of luck! On Feb 1, 2024, you have 11 subscribers! 100K is right around the corner!!

Great reaction! You can't help but smile with angelic music like this from #Voctave! They simply are vocal perfection. Pick anything and you will be amazed, but a few of my (non-Christmas) favourites are: You Will Be Found - done separately during Covid (watch to the end) Prince of Egypt Medley - it's audio only but trust me, you won't care! Disney Heroes and Villains - spotlights the guys Disney Princess Medley - spotlights the gals Someone Like You feat. Jody McBrayer Beauty and the Beast feat. Sandi Patty; and Poor Unfortunate Souls/I Put a Spell On You feat. Rachel Potter Their arrangements (by Jamey Ray, tenor), dynamics and layering are masterful! Wish more people would react to them as they are so talented.

Nice reaction. If you want to hear them sound like an orchestra, listen to their Great Movie Medley, an Ode to John Williams. Only one song has lyrics. They are the orchestra on the rest of the songs.

...and ironically "man bun" sings the part of Gaston in their Villains & Heroes Medley. A must listen to as well as Disney Princess Medley. perfection. Other amazing pieces: Prince of Egypt Medley (audio only), Someday (from Hunchback of Notre Dame), You Will Be Found (from Dear Evan Hanson, and featuring a virtual choir). And all Christmas music is amazing. Jamey Ray (center) arranges all of their pieces.

In fact, Aaron (and Kurt) used to play Gaston in the "Beauty & the Beast" stage show at Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World. Kurt's husband Zach occasionally subs as Gaston in that same show.

Enjoyed the reaction. You should listen to Voctave’s Disney Princess Medley, Heroes and Villains, and their arrangement of Mary Did You Know with the composer Mark Lowry is a super special performance. Lots of other amazing songs in their repertoire as well. Looking forward to more reactions. Enjoy!

@DropTheMike- Now, maybe another suggestion, when you get the urge to say something, STOP yourself. I'm an uneducated clod when it comes to musical knowledge and even I saw the big finish happening. It was like when one of those civil defense tests comes on at the big reveal in a movie. Instead we get, "REANT", "REANT", "REANT"!!!! Then the talking starts and NOBODY IS LISTENING!!! They've changed the channel, or thrown a boot through the screen. So just a reminder that what you have to say maybe insightful, but it will fall on deaf ears if the timing is poorly selected. P.S. If I sound too mean-spirited forgive me. I am dealing with a 5 alarm migraine and have probably lost all facility for tact.

Is this the first time you have heard Voctave? If so, welcome to the most awesome rabbit hole... you will not be disappointed! Your next video needs to be the Disney Heroes and Villians Medley for the simple purpose of the fact that you guessed Aaron's character (man bun). Then it needs to be followed with Disney Princess Medley. Some of my favorites are The Prince of Egypt Medley, You Will Be Found, and my sons favorite the Disney 90s TV medley. All 11 members (5 ladies and 6 men) are all current or former members of the Voice of Liberty at Walt Disney World Epcot in Florida. Jamey Ray is one of the tenors and he created the group and is the arranger of their songs and medleys. He writes the parts to the singer not to the part (alto, soprano etc) because he knows their strong points and ranges. I got to see them in person in concert in October 2021 and they were wonderful. I will be here for more Voctave. I would love to see you also react to David Phelps I have Nothing.

Thank you for all the info on Voctave! I will definitely be reacting to more videos in the near future. I also appreciate the suggestion to react to David Phelps. I saw him live in concert around 7 years ago. He’s amazing! God-given talent for sure. 😄
