Loved your reaction and comments. Jamie Ray (second from right - button down shirt) arranges all of their music.

Haha! If I could sing, I'd be dangerous! LOL

Love your reactions for the music expertise and excitement. Please keep reacting to their music, especially some of their Christmas music.

Wonderful observation. And yes, Jeremy is shook. And my favorite, "fuckin' soprano section is NUTS!"

Your reaction is why I love watching musicians react to these groups. The nerdgasm over the beautiful technicalities is visceral. I love it!

You are absolutely correct that Voctave has a genius arranger. It's Jamie Ray, who also sings tenor in the group. He's the second man from the right in the burgundy colored shirt right next to the bass in the purple shirt. Jamie is featured in Voctave's "Disney Showstoppers Medley", which, of course, he arranged and also is well worth a reaction if you haven't already done it.

Kate Lott is the high soprano on the end...simply amazing! Jamey Ray is the tenor in the middle who does all the music arraignments...again amazing! Voctamazing! ❤

Jamey Ray is also the founder of Voctave as well as their arranger. As I understand it, Kirstin was a huge Disney fan and Jamey was friends with Jeremy so Jeremy arranged this studio session as a surprise for her. They were engaged at the time but called it off before the wedding. That first soprano, Kate Lott, I think is hitting an F6 and holding it all the way through. Many of the Voctave members are past or present members of Voices of Liberty who sing at the American Pavillion in EPCOT at WDW. I heard them last month and was privileged to meet Kate between performances. She is as sweet and friendly as she is talented. Thanks for an enthusiastic and fun reaction. Blessings!

Jeremy and Kirsten are just marveling at the one soprano. There is a video out there where they are practicing this song and they just crack up when she hits that note. It's hilarious .

I’ve watched many Voctave reaction videos. You, sir, not only point out the music theory, arranging specifics and underlying techniques. But you are probably the only one I’ve seen point out Jeremy’s “in the moment capture of awestruck” for that, you get a sub and a standing ovation from me. 👏

Your energy is fantastic.

THANK YOU for calling out the completely under-appreciated bass section! Go back and listen to them throughout. Amazing. (And your comment: "Those fucking sopranos..." cracked me up.)

Great reaction. I don't like it when the person who reacts just says "wow!" and nothing else comes out. Jarvis does a great job commenting on specific passages, pointing out their unusualness and uniqueness. And he can also explain it in a way that a person who is not that much of a music expert can understand.

I love the pauses. I get so much insight from the pauses. You're reactions are so fun and high energy...you're passion comes through and makes it fun to watch

GREAT REACTION!!!!! oh please please please do more Voctave!!!! Someone Like You Mary Did You Know

Loved your reaction!!!! If you want to hear 9 people do something unique, Voctave's Great Movie Medley ( all themes written by the great John Williams) is AAAAA mazing! And their virtual video of You Will Be Found with over 900 people from around the world joining in, is wonderful!!

Just watched this reaction on my other account (on a ps5 and I don't know how to comment on so I came here). If I could give this reaction 2 thumbs up, which technically I just did, I would. Dude, your happiness at this song, and group I felt whole heartily. To watch people get it is amazing. Well done. I could go on, but it would get weird lol. Thank you.

That riff at 9:08 is absolute magic.

I was a musician, and my face was JUST LIKE THAT! LUL

Man this is so beautiful to watch! And wow her voice is insane!

The basses in this group are second to none.

that ending with dissonance / resolution is killer.

I am sure Kirstin appreciated Voctave but yes it was another day at work for her. At this point she had won two Grammys with Pentatonix and they had sung on both the AMA and the Grammy award shows. After she and Jeremy broke up she went on to star on Broadway as Lauren in Kinky Boots. Pentatonix released a Christmas album last year that featured Voctave in the song "Once Upon a December". Unfortunately because of the pandemic only one video was shot for it. "My Favourite Things". Kirstin sings lead and the video is fantastic and so fun.

Kirsten and Jeremy met on the show The Sing Off he was in one of the other acapella groups competing against Pentatonix. They are no longer together. Voctive had only 8 members at the time. They now have 11 and are even better. 2 sopranos, 3 altos ,3 tenors, 3 basses. Of course most all can sing 2 or 3 parts.

Your reactions are so upbeat and your excitement is contagious. Thank you so much.

I just recently discovered Voctave, and they are...something else. Words don't really do them justice. Each one of them is amazing individually, and as a group, they are even better. If I am to recommend one of their songs for a reaction, it would be the Disney Princess Medley. Each one of the ladies has a solo in that one, so it's a great way to discover just how good each one of them are. The first thing people tend to notice about Voctave is the first soprano, Kate Lott, as she's the one with the highest notes, but it turns out the rest of them are pretty much on the same level within their respective ranges.

right! that last chord at the end sounded really weird in my musician ears. I literally tilted my head to the side, just like you did, when I heard that a few days ago haha for a moment it made me think that Jamie must have done something wrong with the arrangement of that part, but still, it was an eargasm for me. got addicted to it, kept repeating the video just to hear it again. they're just awesome people doing awesome things, that's for sure. just subscribed to your channel, really nice reaction.

Fun reaction!

You earned a sub. Never watched your channel before but this was fantastic.

LOVE THIS!! Your energy and reaction to this is WONDERFUL to watch! THANK YOU!

I love you and your reactions!! I've heard these videos so many times, but you make them brand new!

LOVE the reaction! Great breakdown of the song and I really enjoy your personality. Loved it! Can't wait for more Voctave, they will blow your mind.

Kate Lott. F#6. Naturally. She is unreal.

Man, I love your reaction, critique, and commentary on love. Seriously great.

I loved, loved, loved your reaction. Great observations!!!

Ok Sr. You were my favorite reaction on this and I have watched every single one!!! You nailed it!! ♥️♥️

Excellent reaction! Such a great song. I hope you will do more Voctave reactions. They have so many amazing songs to choose from! I love Mary did you know, You Will Be Found, Someone Like You and all their Christmas songs, oh and I really liked Remember me from the movie Coco.

You are exactly why I prefer to watch actual musicians react to a capella, sir.

They are my favorite group! You should hear their version of Ohh Come All Ye Faithful featuring RJ. Your mind will be blown!!

Nothing need be said about Voctave, and yes Kristen and her man were indeed an item at this time. If they are still together, I couldn't say. Been singing since I was 6 years old, a total of 72 years and counting, and have NEVER heard a group as skilled as Voctave. Love your sensible reactions instead of the gushing pap we get from most other reactors.

Another sub earned. Awesome reaction and knowledgeable? Yes please...

Amazing reaction man. Loved it

Re the "She's been here before" comment; there's a video floating around of them all practising around the piano, obviously the first time Voctave have got together with Kirstin and Jeremy, and when Kate starts reaching the stratosphere they both end up totally corpsing.

Actually, you are on of the few that actually get it regarding Jeremy. Most of his reactions are exactly as you say and every time Kate hit a high note, he freaks! I mean, yeah, he wuz in luv and all that but mainly he can’t believe that he is there, doing that, with them! And THANK YOU for NOT singing along the way many of the vocal Coach reactors do.!

you NEED to listen to the Disney Princess Medley by Voctave..

Please please, react Drumming to VOCTAVE grupe singing "Disney Princess Medley and Movie Medley". thank you and congratulations for the exceptional channel. Kisses from Brazil😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

Jeremy & Kirstie's breakup was a nasty one. Let's just say, he is not the good guy that he pretends to be on camera and he did something that totally crushed her. That's all I'll say on the subject...except that it has made it VERY difficult for me to watch any video that he is in now. For Kirstie, it was good riddance to bad rubbish. She is WAY better off without him in her life.

Interesting that you are able to pick up and read this group so well. Engaged at the time but no more, Kirstie and Jeremy were definitely in love here and it showed. Also correct that Kirstie is used to singing with greatness, being on stage with Pentatonix. However, this was probably the biggest "stage" Jeremy had been on to that point and the talent here just blew him away; he never gets over that "just pinch me" reaction that you see throughout. Interestingly, the behind-the-scenes video of the rehearsal to this, Kirstie and Jeremy both react but she's able to obviously adjust faster and take the musical greatness surrounding her in stride thru her performance. I almost expect to actually hear Jeremy laugh during the video. All that being said, Jeremy can sing and hold his own quite well here or I expect he wouldn't have been in this, no matter who he was dating at the time.

This reaction is superb...love seeing someone enjoy it and not just meticulously breaking it down, etc.

Jesus... ahahah... yep! 🤗

Very surprised by the quality of your reaction. I’ve watched a couple of.reactions on your channel before, but was never impressed enough to subscribe. Your insights in this performance changed my mind. I love acapella and it doesn’t get any better than Voctave, Home Free and PTX.

Check out the Disney Princesses that Voctave does, fantastic. Very reminiscent of original Disney music. This has it too.

Please do Voctave’s Mary Did You Know with Mark Lowry

Next Reacts to Alip bata Solo Guitar fingerstyle

Here is a short, fun clip of what appears to be an early rehearsal for this video where both Kirsten and Jeremy are blown away by Voctave. Check it out: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qNCKo91hqtzShmw.html

I'm sure you get this all the time but you look like Ray J in the face. Lol. I subbed. Very well done on this one.

We home fries need more home free 🌹

Now they just need a HM back drop beat.😎

Check out the Duet by Morissette Amon and Darren Esponto from Aladdin.

Please react to more Voctave❣️❣️❣️

Do voctace prince of Egypt please

At the time of that recording, Kirstin and Jeremy were dating.

There's a clip from their rehearsal when Kate Lott pipes up and Kirstie and Jeremy start laughing. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qNCKo91hqtzShmw.html

:-)

Hi , great channel bro... please react more ptx

You need to react to Imagine by Pentatonix.

Love your reaction and I especially liked your comments about Jeremy being so impressed with what is going on around him ... just curious if you have seen the rehearsal video (and his reaction then); kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qNCKo91hqtzShmw.html&ab_channel=KlaraRomanova

I like the way you react to the video, I hope you can react Alip_ba_ta, waiting for you soon

No they are not together anymore. Sad. Voctave always great

No Jeremy is with LaurDIY. She’s a youtuber lol her ex is Alex Wasabi

LOVE YOUR REACTIONS. BUT no , no longer together.

The genius arranger is Jamey Ray jameyray.net (one of the members of Voctave). The "ad libs" were actually mixes from the prior song -- Jeremy sings a line from Tangled in the Tarzan ad-lib. Jeremy was a member of the a cappella group the AcoustiKats who competed in The Sing-Off the year after PTX won the contest. The dazed and amazed looks from Jeremy and Kirstin were all because of Kate Lott (the amazing soprano hitting those ethereal high notes). I think you'd really enjoy the Voctave arrangement of "The Carol of the Bells of Notre Dame". It's Christmas-y but they really have fun with it with sight gags to draw a laugh while they lay an unbelievable performance on you. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mr-kn92Iqpe9hYk.html P.S. Keremy or Jerstin (whichever the "ship" works) didn't make it.
