BYU’s acapella group Vocal Point has redefined Josh Groban’s “You Raise Me Up” with their stunning rendition. Founded in 1991 by BYU students Dave Boyce and Bob Ahlander, Vocal Point has garnered acclaim, from selling out their first concert to finishing fifth on NBC’s The Sing-Off and securing a record deal with Decca Gold. Member Jason Bromley remarked, “We’re ordinary college students doing extraordinary things.”
Filmed amidst majestic mountains and valleys, their rendition begins with a solitary voice, soon harmonized to create a deep, textured melody. The group’s pure vocals and vocal percussion immerse listeners, offering a unique twist on the song, including a new hook towards the end. The finale, enriched by an additional choir, leaves a profound impact. Vocal Point’s interpretation of “You Raise Me Up” is both refreshing and deeply moving, promising to captivate audiences with its uplifting resonance. Enjoy this unforgettable performance that showcases their remarkable talent and creativity.
