The singer crying at 3.30 of the video is a summary of all the emotion and talent involved in this spectacular choir performance. Something magical and unforgettable!
and as a singer, that moment is so incredibly powerful and beautiful and heart-wrenching at the same time. I always connected to all humankind in a very cognizant way and my love pours out with my tears.
What we get is just a small glimpse of the emotions you can live through while singing. So I cannot even imagine this bond of love you and the other members might have experienced. Thank you all for giving us these minutes to enjoy, it's absolutely beautiful. I have no words to describe it.
I am so moved by the obvious fact that many of these singers are singing through personal grief. This is an amazing song, and I’ve heard many recordings of it, some of them superior to this one in the sense of flawless technique. But none of the other versions have spoken to my heart like this one. The singing is wonderful, but the personal expression is beyond belief. I wish everyone who sings at all would learn from Stellenbosch that music without heart is just pleasant noise.
I am a chorale singer of 50 years plus. I’ve never experienced such personal expressions by singers. My tears come every time as i am drawn into there expression.
I just lost my dear 93-year-old mother when I found this. The voices of the choir spoke directly into my grief and lifted me up and carried me as though they had wings, granting me comfort and peace, if only for a moment. Thank you SUC 🙏🏽
Had the privilege of being present at this performance and was of the opinion then that this must be one of the best choirs around. Musicianship, sincerity all evident.
One of the most beautiful if not the most beautiful choirs I have ever heard. Their sound touches deep inside and leaves a sense of peace. Thank you so much🙏❤️
Listening again to the wonderful music that sustained us through all the lonely, devastating months of severe Covid I am again humbled by the gift of music so movingly brought to so many by voices and choir masters like this world class choir. Long may their songs be heard
The slight increase in tempo and accelerated rhythms in this performance makes this feel more urgent compared to other performances of this piece. It feels like the singers are desperate to have their love be heard. They aren’t sending for the recipient to receive the message, they are sending a message out, praying that the receiver is there to listen. This interpretation is my favorite presentation I’ve ever seen of this piece, definitely helped by the perfect skill and emotional power of the choir. Absolutely amazing!
The song starts off gently: a prayer, a tentative hope that,, in the midst of grief, love will be heard. The low bases are singing the 7th of a major seventh on each of the "heard"s, very unusual. It lends an uncertainty, an unsettled tone. The tenors and the sopranos sing their melodic verses, an entreaty to angels, but the uncertainty lingers as to whether love will be heard amidst the grief. Then at the heart of the piece, the men start towards the bottom of the range, softly chanting their request as the the women evoke the prayer going to heaven. The chant grows in pitch, tempo, and volume, and the request becomes a demand. Their love WILL BE HEARD! Then we have a denouement returning to the original theme, leaving us with some of the original doubt. This is an emotionally powerful song for the chorus singing it, and hopefully for the audience in front of it. Having sung the climax at full (controlled) volume and expressiveness, it is difficult to collect oneself physically and emotionally in a couple of seconds to sing the denouement softly, at a much lower pitch. I feel for the young woman seen crying; you can't really sing well and cry at the same time (cf. Hathaway in Les Mis), so you have to try to keep it together, but everyone who has put their full emotion into the climax wants to cry at that point; I know I did.
I cry every time I watch her. My own griefs come to surface and his hard. I prefer this to therapy or drugs. I’m a singer of over 50 years and this is the goal to connect your listeners to your music. In the group I sing to over 70 million people in 49 countries The notes and cards that come in over the singing of simple hymns is overwhelming. So worth it!
Thank you so much Tom. You have expressed what I could not after hearing this magnificent performance. Much respect to you and to Stellenbosch Choir. (06 December 2021)
I lost my two dogs in 2021. They were and are my everything. This song, by this choir, is the closest thing I can come to describe to anyone how much I miss them. How much I love them. How lost I am without them. How much pain I'm in. How lucky I feel to have been their momma while they were here. Thank you for this gift. I love you Buddah! I love you Lutze! I'll be with you forever.
Thank you! Absolutely captivating! I think I held my breath for the entire song. The music is powerful but what stands out to me the most is the pure and sincere heart that shines through ALL of your songs. It’s like a hot fire purifying the gold of music to produce something rich and glorious for our souls to enjoy!
There's no nation beautiful as SA, look how beautiful it is when all the races do one thing in common and in harmony... please let's not allow politics disturb our love as South Africans... I love you and you and each of you...
There is a minority of each race that hates. But the majority loves, and then we have people like these students who are bright and talented and full of hope. One cannot watch this and not be full of hope.
This song made me imagine how it will be when we get to heaven.Welcomed by beautiful voices were anxiety, depression fear and all the other things won't exist no more.Just peace of mind and no worries,this is amazing.
Omg 😲 the sopranos so clear listen on headphones and be transported to heaven!!!! Edit: the entire arrangement oh my Lord chills. The faces the emotions wow 😱😱😱😱 South Africa 🇿🇦 forever!
3:31 I think this is the best song i've ever heard. It is like a view of heaven. Amazing. The one girl was overcome with emotion and was crying while she sang. Excellent choir and conductor.Props 🇿🇦
Stuck in quarantine and stumbled upon this. Everything about this gave me chills from head to toe. The depth of emotion still lingers even now as I sit in silence, trying to put into words how this music has stirred me... Tears will have to suffice...
I can't listen to this without starting to cry , such powerful emotions from all of them. Simply breathtaking, I sang in choirs for many years and know how powerful a piece of music can be. A joy to listen.
If the rainbow nation in South Africa doesn’t exist, this is a beautiful beginning to a longing in these young voices. I hope South Africa hears their love. ❤️💚🖤💛
You are an oasis in a rotten world. I live in the Netherlands but what a mess is it here too. The problems overwhelm us. The quality you show is amazing. You sing from the heart.
It IS possible for an old choir member (1986) to die inside from envy energy just to be ever moment be born again with delight, appreciation and just simple thank you tears. This is just too much of joy. Thank you so much for being
Their beauty is not only in the perfection of the tone, or even the beautiful words...it is in the expression of love in each and every face even tears, as they project the love of Christ. Goosebumps and a heart filled with joy! Thank you!
Angels where you soar Up to God's own light Take my own lost bird On your hearts tonight And as grief once more Mounts to Heaven and sings Let my love be heard (heard) Angels where you soar Up to God's own light Take my own lost bird On your hearts tonight And as grief once more Mounts to Heaven and sings Let my love be heard Let my love be heard Whispering in your wings Ahh Ahh Ahh Let my love be heard Let my love be heard Let my love be heard Let my love be heard Let my love be heard Let my love be heard Angels where you soar up to God Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Ahh Let my love be heard
Thank you so much for the lyrics ! I sing with them and cry with her monetheless, each time... And even with what is happening all around the world right now, I can sense Humanity' beauty. And the day will come when we will be able to convey beauty of that quality in our heart like there's nothing else.
Incredible choir. Hand gesture not appropriate during a choral competition and probably the choir got passed over for the top award because of it. This is a group activity and individual expressions, however heartfelt, need to held for another time. The young man knew that to be so but went ahead anyway; you can see him having difficulty deciding when to retract his arm. Can’t imagine how the conductor and the rest of the singers felt when the Stellenbosch Choir got passed over for another group who were less musical. Hopefully he won’t feel the need to call attention to himself in future performances. Yes I am a choral conductor and would have taken this offender aside and schooled him or anyone who did something like that in appropriate performance conduct.
@@sandradavis18 Actually we won this category, so my individual expression, or as you say “calling attention to myself” didn’t take away from the technical aspect and obviously the judges appreciated the emotional expression. Our conductor Andre always encouraged us to lean into the emotional aspects of the music. Good thing that I (and other members of USK who are confident and comfortable sharing their emotional experiences in group performances) am not in your choir so no need to take us aside and school us cause you sound stiff to be honest. Our amazing conductor who was so proud of our individual emotional expressions and realised that it lended to an amazing performance (all of us who had experienced it noted that it was the best performance of this piece and that nothing would ever top this performance purely because of this expression) commended us directly after this performance and was grateful to us all for sharing bits of our emotions through this music. I guess that is why he has a top award winning choir and you don’t. But continue to drag me (a stranger you know nothing about) anonymously on the internet. But I guess you are entitled to your terrible opinion and thanks for your unneeded insight 🤣
Just found this,wow. It penetrates my soul, and comforts my heart. I imagine this sound accompanies the soul as it assends to God upon separation from this mortal experience.
As a choir director: never heard such an expressive coral singing, perfectely balanced, genious arrangments and colors, how many colors! Amazing structural interpretation. Top of the top. Wish you perform the amazing Concerto for Choir by Schnittke. That would be the amazing.
i have tears in my eyes, wonderful sung so soulfully you touched my heart and as always a wonderful conductor. I wish I could see you live..... but that is a dream 😔 thank you
E' meraviglioso sentire le vostre voci che cantano all'unisono, esprimono il valore più alto del CORO che canta in modo sublime.

Il mio sogno è quello di potervi sentire un giorno cantare dal vivo e mi piacerebbe poter unire la mia voce alle vostre. Grazie per tutto ciò che di bello mi trasmettete e continuate a cantare e a regalarci EMOZIONI. Erika.
No matter what group sings this song, I’m always crying by the end. No idea how I ever got through performing it (with a different choir of course). Runestad is SPECTACULAR
Amazing! What a wonderful performance. With power, dynamic, emotion and pure joy. It's inspiring, a pleasure to see and to hear you. Andre is an absolutely likeable and charismatic leader. My deep respect for all actors, THIS is world music. Greets from Berlin.

You are right
Indeed! Literally had tears at the same time in the song. So much emotion from each singer 🤍
and as a singer, that moment is so incredibly powerful and beautiful and heart-wrenching at the same time. I always connected to all humankind in a very cognizant way and my love pours out with my tears.
3:30
Each song sang by this choir gives me goose bumps. Who feels same??
Yes, I had never heard of this choir or even this university before yesterday; now, I am in choir heaven listening to them all day today.
I love them. Just came across them and can't get enough of them.
Yoh I know what you mean
I feel the same, specially for this one...
This choir is UNIQUE!
Amazing conducting, amazing choroists, amazing repertoire.
Congratz, again, to the Stellenbosch University Choir.
I’ll never forget the feeling I had getting off that stage after this song. SUC Family!🖤🖤🖤

Speaking from experience with another choir, this song is an emotional beast to sing. You guys did amazing.
You guys were so good. Just amazing.
I have known that feeling too many years ago. I cannot begin to tell you how impressed I am with the choir and the director.
Listening to this after 14 days in COVID quarentine in Dublin, and crying my eyes out
the unprecedented beauty these young people create touches me deeply and gives me hope and joy in these anxious corona days
they're such a blessing
♥
Literally doing the same now wow 😭❤️❤️
I hope you have fully recovered by now. :-)

Have you heard the version that is uploaded on the channel of Jake Runestad?
I really do recommend it. It is extraordinary and wonderful.
The one from Jake Runesteads page is truly pain driven and it's beautiful
"music without heart is just pleasant noise". WORD.
I am a chorale singer of 50 years plus. I’ve never experienced such personal expressions by singers.
My tears come every time as i am drawn into there expression.
Moved. By voices of angels
There's a moment in every Stellenbosch University Choir song, that magic happens, you hear God, and you cry or at least gulp. ❤
Stunning work. The lady crying sums up the emotion this choir can produce in creating a brilliant piece.
Each time I am here listening to this amazing choir, I cry. God bless South Africa🙌
nothing in my entire life will be better than the fact that I was sitting in the audience for this performance. insane.
Abby G You are most fortunate and blessed...
It could be life-changing I think. I'm from America but it's something I really hope to be able to do. Somehow. Someday.

3:33 That girl is in tears , this song touched me. Obinim from Ghana 🇬🇭
hard to watch without getting a tear by yourself.
i am sobbing tears right now i never heard somehing so emotionally stirring . this is a glimpse of heaven .
On Palm Sunday in 2023 it is still a beautiful hymn. Prayers from Ottawa.

Me too!
No matter how many times I listen to this, I still wish we could hear the true reason for those tears
Ii just wanted to hold and comfort her. She comforts me in my grief. So much Grief
Beautiful on this Palm Sunday 2022 in Ottawa Canada. The Gospel tells of the death and burial of Jesus.
I can’t stop watching this video! Please come and perform in Johannesburg! I would love to watch the choir perform.
The emotion is just so strong 😢😢😢

I cannot resist the beauty this choir transmit. It's simply too much.
Angels where you soar
Up to God's own light
Take my own lost bird
On your hearts tonight
And as grief once more
Mounts to Heaven and sings

Best song ever. That girl crying so powerfull.
Really enjoyed this version rather than only a few people singing. There is a richness and fullness with a larger group. Well done.
how's this not hit millions of likes?
All I see and hear are Angel's singing!! This is what heaven must sound like all the time!!! Amazing and inspiring and beautiful!!

Amazing is an understatement!!
