…You may recall me (Larry) mentioning about being at an American Choral Directors Convention in Phila back in February and running into Glenn Miller, my friend and former classmate from my days at Westminster Choir College. Glenn has a beautiful solo bass voice that is known for being one of the lowest pitched voices in the music world today. Professional choirs frequently contract him to fly in from Michigan, (where he is a church music director and organist) when they do works such as Mahler’s 2nd Symphony and Rachmaninoff Vespers that have extraordinarily low bass parts.
This video was posted on Youtube awhile back when Glenn was working at a music camp and was asked to sing a spoof song from the 1930’s – A Basso Profundo Am I. The quality of the video is poor as it was made on a cell phone and there are some shrieks from the kids that cover him occasionally, but it is well work looking past all of that.
