During this uncertain period of the corona pandemic, I find this rendition by Jesse Crawford one that brings tears to my eyes and highlights the beauty and the love of the Divine, this sweet mystery of life, hidden in plain sight waiting to be found....at last.
A very stirring rendition of this classic, as only Crawford could play. I recall reading that Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy sang this and "Indian Love Call" at the funeral of the original "Blonde Bombshell," Jean Harlow, the latter being Miss Harlow's favorite song, the former having, of course, deep resonance on the occasion.
I first heard this very rendition around 1968 from H.Spencer Lewis's "Sanctum Invocation", which was recorded in the 1930's. Mr Lewis was personally acquainted with Victor Herbert. Through the Lewis's I discovered great music.

What a touching tribute to Harlow. I understand Louis B. Mayer (MGM) requested that MacDonald and Eddy sing these songs.

I saw a wonderful sad ballet with this music but can't find it anywhere.
You know this is a favorite song of mine as well. I have several versions by others posted.
pax41 It was Victor Herbert's most recorded song. I have four renditions posted.
Masterful use of the organs “second touch” facilities to incorporate the vibraphone etc. Wonderful
Super excellent with very good interesting photos
Marvellous. I believe this performance might have inspired Billy Nalle.
He is not at the organ, he is IN the organ LOL
Very rosicrucian!!!!!
