Wow. . . I was trying to start an A Cappella group when I was in college. Ten guys singing A Cappella arrangements of well known songs. But alas, it didn’t come together. Y’know, the rigors of college life kinda stole from rehearsal time.

Oh well. . . so awesome that you’re getting into it though! I’d love to go to the A Cappella Innovations, but Albany’s quite the trip from New York. And production will be starting on my short film by that time. Oh well. Hope everyone enjoys it!

I really would like to go acappella, but I am not rich hahaha.
my fiance and I are living in spain and well… hehe, too expensive to travel to the states or canada, we paied two tickets, hotel and fly tickets to go to coventry on 2006… because of erica, but she finally didn’t go to the convention.
and YOU MISS ALLISON MACK hahahhaha, WHY YOU DIDN’T SAY ANYTHING THAT YOU WERE TO COVENTRY ON 2007???
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH when my fiance and I saw the photos we drove ourselves crazy hehehehe…. bad girl allison hehehehe

I hope to see you soon in Europe soon, I really would love to meet you someday

Sounds good.
I like this art of music.
Btw this was the first time i heared the original voices from Allison and Kristin .

I’ll have to look up “A Cappella” again. It doesn’t necessarily mean “without musical accompaniment.” What the heck, I’ll do it now.

Here’s what I found:

Musicologists have fun debating the extent to which a cappella, “in the style of the chapel,” can include instrumental accompaniment. Some argue that early sacred a cappella performances would sometimes include instruments that double a human voice part. So, the correct definition of a cappella should be something like “singing without independent instrumental accompaniment.”
At Primarily A Cappella, we are trying to popularize this style of music, so we like to keep it simple.
a cappella – two words, two “p’s”, two “l’s.”
singing without instruments
Those of you who are serious singers may say, “my voice is my instrument!” True. But will the general public understand the meaning of “singing without other instruments?” Or the more cumbersome, “singing without non-vocal instruments?”

The festival back in December was a blast!!! Simply Human was amazing!!! It was also neat hearing Housejacks perform, and although they will not be there in April, I understand they would like to comeback if there is another festival in December this year.

I have still not heard anything back from the egg in regards to tickets/specific schedules.

I look forward to seeing you there Allison!!

Kind Regards,
David

Actually, a cappella being “in the style of the chapel” and yet not including any musical instruments whatever is absolutely correct.

Musical instruments weren’t introduced into religious ceremonies or worship until around the 4th century. And that caused such a divide in the church(es) of that time, that it was highly controversial – and continues to be today.

I lead singing at my church and it is a cappella. Although we don’t make rhythmic sounds or other accompaniment other than singing the soprano, alto, tenor, and bass parts, it is still an excellent thing to hear – and when you get enough people together, it is even better.

But I am glad that festivals like this do occur, and are supported by people with similarly amazing talent like Allison.

I know this isn’t the right place to post this, but I ordered a calendar and a head shot jan 4th. Have only received the calendar. I emailed someone about it feb 24th ish, they responded that I was forgotten, sorry and its on its way. Now, being a month later, I emailed again asking if there was any news on whether its been shipped or if I should just ask for my money back. that was a week or so ago. still have heard nothing. I know people are busy. And things are probably hectic. Just trying to figure either, if its on its way, or who I need to talk to get my money back. 3 months is a long time to wait for 80 bucks I spent on what seems like ages ago. no disrespect intended, just need a push in the right direction. so I can figure out whats going on. thank you.

I still gotta say I LOVE the new mack event. I’ts nice to see there is a good actress who is actually HUMAN. Including kristen…I think,well I don’t really know anthing about her because she doesnt post things about her self on a site. Not that she should or anything. Ok I will shut up now

Good bye,Fans

Ha! what a coincidence.
I’m just finishing up writing a way too long paper for one of my masters classes on Contemporary A cappella, like the kind at the event you hosted. It truely is such an interesting and special music all to itself. The paper brought up the issues of catagorizing and assigning this type of music an accurate term to discribe it so that it can continue to grow in both the economic and academic worlds. Not that you care about all that but it was really interesting to find something I’ve spent so much time thinking about is something you’re interested in too.
Take Care
