Tell you what - that audience couldn't be more receptive and respectful. The silence, poise and stillness throughout this performance was cavernously special.
Yes l am a 72 yr old & l love your voices!!! 100 percent, l want this music at my funeral,it reaches my heart ♥️.
I went to a 2:00 PM special showing of the movie Platoon when it first came out in Eau Claire WI. It was for Vietnam vets only. There were maybe 50 of us scattered throughout the theater. When this incredible piece was played during the movie, it crawled under my skin and into the lining of my heart and has stayed there since that moment. When the movie ended, there was silence for about 15 seconds and then one guy yelled, "Yeah, it was like that, man ." And we applauded. It's almost 50 years since I was a witness to the fall of Saigon. My work with the national security agency has rendered me 100% disabled even now. I still don't know what to do with the experience. But I'm still alive, so that's a success of a sort.
Ich bin sprachlos....
This is as beautiful a performance of this fine work as you can get. The voices are absolutely stunning; the balance and blend are total perfection; the diction and clarity of pronunciation is outstanding as well. It also shows that one does not need to hear this from a larger chorus of singers, as the 'full effect' here is displayed in all its musical intent. Combining these two wonderful groups was a wonderful idea, and more of this collaboration between VOCES8 and VOKETT HANOVER would be totally welcomed and a real treat. Samuel Barber himself would indeed be pleased with this outstanding performance, that is quite certain.
Among all beautiful music in this world this is perhaps the most beautiful? My soul weeps with joy listening to this.
That silence at the end where no one wanted it to stop..... stunning
I'm so used to this being performed by instruments, but having it sung by angels 😇 will do!
That was the longest complete silence after a performance I have ever heard. The audience is to be commended for taking their cue from the piece’s perfectly straight diminuendo finish.
I will probably never meet any of you in this world, but whoever you are, thank you for your beautiful singing, which has renewed my faith in God. God bless you.
Surely one of the most difficult pieces and one of the most glorious. Barber was very smart to have created this choral setting. I cannot imagine a finer performance. Sublime.
Easily one of the finest choral performances on TH-cam.....
the original samuel barber adagio for strings in g minor is a mindblowing piece as well but this choral rendition here is sublime
The very definition of ethereal...thanks...Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world, grant us peace....just like this...perhaps..
Zwei Spitzenensembles an einem wunderbaren Stück, der Klang reicht an den Himmel!
Time has just stopped, while listening, the beauty of this invoked visceral response in me.
Absolutely stunning… No one hears this work without remembering the London Symphony performing this as a tribute to the victims of 9/11. What a magnificent rendition.❤
welch eine Gabe so Singen zu können. GänsehautFeeling
Voices 8 never disappoint. A fine collaboration.
