An incredible acapella performance has the ability to breathe new life into a song, captivating audiences with its raw talent and emotive power. One such rendition that stands out is BYU Vocal Point’s interpretation of Josh Groban’s 2003 hit, “You Raise Me Up.” This captivating acapella masterpiece takes this inspirational song to new heights.
The Rise of BYU Vocal Point
In 1991, two talented BYU students, Dave Boyce and Bob Ahlander, had a vision of creating a unique musical experience. Thus, BYU Vocal Point was born – a nine-member acapella group that quickly gained popularity on campus.
Their debut concert sold out, and their success only continued to grow over the years. Notably, they achieved a fifth-place finish in the third season of NBC’s The Sing-Off, solidifying their mark in the acapella world. Recently, in December 2018, they announced a record deal with Universal Music Group’s classical label, Decca Gold, further affirming their exceptional talent and dedication. As member Jason Bromley humbly states, “We’re ordinary college students doing extraordinary things.”
