Splendid. Choir, Organist, Director: all in sync. Wonderful acoustic.
Outstanding!!
Utterly Stunningly Beautiful!! 👍
Why are girls singing the Tenor line towards the end?
I think it is just some very young and slightly over-enthusiastic tenors. Teenage tenors can tend to have difficult in control in the upper register and can sometimes have a timbre that sounds a bit like a very robust low alto.
Because they can?
Well done! Beautiful!
wow guys - FABULOUS :) thank you so much for sharing your wonderful vision and talents with us!
Jeez super cool
Absolutely. brilliant rendering of this beautiful work by all including the organist ,Thank you. all
Wonderful! Can anyone on earth explain in words this ineffable longing created by this amazing work? I can't.
It is divine. Divinity cannot be explained. We are transported to a different realm in sound, space and time. The divine and the infinite we cannot comprehend. It is outside of our finite understanding. This anthem is beyond inspired. Maybe the Almighty had a hand of protection for this one anthem given the fate of almost all of Gardiner's works. For fifty-plus years and I continue to be transported into a realm from the ordinary and into the divine.
@@keiththompson9575 I'm glad you love it as much as I. So mystical. Such longing for the inexplicable.
@@harryhagan5937 Hi Harry: You may have already heard this observation so forgive me if it isn't original. It has been described as "sublime monotony" given the D-pedal point to which the entire structure is tied. It provides a solid foundation. Gardiner has employed a firm discipline--a characteristic also found in Olivier Messiaen's works. Gardiner has confined himself to a very limited framework on which to build. In Olivier Messiaen's "The Language of my Music" he stated that he found far greater freedom when composing within confined harmonic limits and how it unleashed a freedom for creativity. The same is true for J. S. Bach where numeric values provided a framework for his creativity. The other equally important element: a visceral reaction born of an intense emotion when something in a piece of music stirs us, boring a hole through our solar plexus. It can't be explained because it is based upon the emotional happening in the moment. Now we return to the "it can't be explained".....

30 or 40 more singers & you’ll have it. lol
This performance stands up to repeat listening. Is it available on CD?
Genuinely interesting interpretation of the middle verse. The choir started the third verse too strong - the organ should have pulled back just after the choir entered - and the choir had little headroom to increase at the climax just before all the Amen's. Lovely that the organist kept to the tradition and lifted out the ecstatic melodic phrase on a tuba-like stop at the climax. Other than the lack of headroom to give a real climax it is a lovely performance. Thanx.
Thank you for your comments. Please allow me to defend myself. The beginning of the third verse IS arguably the climax-a recapitulation comes as a total surprise after the second verse, and the juxtaposition between the two is intentionally pronounced. It is a moment of total ecstasy. J
@@cavilleharrison No interpretation needs defence as interpretation is artistic expression. :) It is a good performance, just a little different from the tradition associated with that composition. :)
Wonderful.
You genuinely derserve so much more credit than you've currently got for this video guys, beautifully sung, very impressed! :) 👏🏼❤🎶
