LYRICS
Wide, worn and weathered,
Sacred expanse
Of green and white and granite grey;
Snowy patches strewn,
Anchored to the craggy earth,
Unmoving;
While clouds dance
Across the vast, eternal sky.

POV: Your Choir teacher is making you listen to this during online school
ACCURATE
yes
Sadly but YES
yup
HAHAHAHAHAH THIS IS AMAZING
Born in subtropical region, there is no way for me to see snow EVER. But listening to this, I could almost feel the cold, the wind blowing on my skin. This is really amazing! I wish our choir could sing this someday.
Kerkeling
You could travel. I never saw snow until I went to university in Canada
@@natashag1593 Originally in my home country of course lol btw my first time seeing snow was also in Canada, however I am still thrilled by the beauty of nature every time I see snow.
In my country snows in some subtropical regions
I tear up when I hear this because we sang this is high school for the University concert and there were tears in the audience and in the choir. All choir teachers were SOBBING. I being a cold hearted person didn’t cry, but now listening to this almost 10 years later tears are falling down my face. I miss choir
this year is my senior year of highschool, i sang this junior year and i cant imagine my life without choir.. idk what to do :/
Please find your local amateur choir, usually run by your city. Find your harmony again. I'm 37 and just joined choir again. Choir is for everyone in every age!
I loved being a member of this ensemble 10 years ago. The music we sing touched my heart, and literally changed my life. Great job ladies!
For me the definitive version - so ethereal and every note perfect. The blend of voices is almost otherworldly. Thank you for making something beautiful
Gjeillo has become one of my favorite choral composers and the Y ladies did him proud. (Utah, BS 59)
Im back again. My chorus director passed on shortly after I graduated, and I couldnt imagine the pain of his current students. Nearly every day I think of you, Mr.K, because its thanks to you that I have any confidence as a singer. Its thanks to you that my conviction with singing is so… there. You were the only thing that got me through high school, and when we did this song all together, it felt like a spiritual experience. The audience was in tears and I was as well. I still am in tears listening to this now and singing (Alto 1). I miss you so much. This song is like a reminder of the beautiful soul you were and the effect you had on all your students. I will never forget this feeling and I will always long for my chorus days with you. ❤
I'm singing this year in choir and I am so happy that you guys sang this! My choir teachers used this as an example on what it is supposed to sound like :D
I'm singing this too, so pretty
Sameeee
same!!
i'm playing the piano for it though :)
Had the privilege of meeting Mr. Gjeilo when he visited my school in Minnesota, at least a decade ago.
His music is one of my favorites to recommend and listen to, among other great artists like Eric Whitacre. Everyone else wanted to sing the Beetles, I wanted to do Ola Gjeilo music.
Goosebumps... even in the 25 degree room. Beautiful performance!
Ferenc Farkas This confused me for a second....I measure in farenhight😂
@@alisha3020 same I was so confused like, 25 degrees is cold!
Same .
I HAVEN'T SUNG IN A CHOIR IN PERSON SINCE EARLY MARCH AND IT IS SEPTEMBER. IT IS MY LIFE AND MY FUTURE.
Hearing this piece I've sung as a young high schooler in Honor Choir... I'm strangely at peace.
AAAAHHHHH the amazingness is melting my ears off! ever since I started choir, this has been my ultimate goal, to get into a BYU choir. this makes me want it even more.
The only negative thing I have to say about this beautiful video is that it is TOO SHORT. A real treat for the eyes and ears. 08/28/2017
We're singing this for our winter concert this year, I'm so excited
Same

I’m singing this for my Highschool choir and it’s probably one of my favorite choir songs we’ve ever done. It’s absolutely amazing and SO beautiful
The harmony of Gjeilo, the classic ethereality of the choir, the low resonance of the piano, the stunning cinematography... all of this is gorgeous.
I’m singing this song in my choir for our winter celebration and we’re having a string quartet with us. I’m so excited bc I absolutely love this piece and I’m thinking about auditioning for the solo part
This is absolutely beautiful. Our high school choir is currently learning this song to sing at the Winter Concert and this actually made me cry.
Same, our winter concert is dec 4th and we are learning this song for it
Yeah we are! C-dub!
@@mackenseyd824 KENZIE?!? 😅❤
banufshay.aejaz YAS ITS ME HAI BANUFSHAY BAHAAHH
@@mackenseyd824 CANT WAIT TO TAKE ON THIS SONG WITH YOU!! 🤗❤
Beautiful! I'm currently singing this song with my choir and our goal is to sound just like you!
I remember singing this at my high school! Brings back such great memories.
I have been listening to this on repeat, one of the best things I've heard on TH-cam in awhile
SAME
I sang this last year for our Winter concert. It was my senior year, and little did I know it would be the last concert of my high school career. I’m currently crying. This song is so beautiful and I miss choir so much. I miss my family. I miss the safety that it brought me. I miss the place where I could relax and be myself. I miss my friends. I miss everything. It was taken from me too soon 💔
Simply OUTSTANDING.
singing this for OK All-State Treble chorus. needless to say, i’m excited !!!
I'm singing this for winter concert! I'm in varsity women's choir
I sang this when I was in the OU women’s chorus. Weeks later a snow storm blankets the OU campus and I’m walking across listening to this song admiring the beauty. I’m no longer in beautiful, snowy Oklahoma but in hot, muggy North Carolina 😕 Every night I listen to this recording and close my eyes and think of the snow on OU’s campus
Great job, I was in Honors Ensemble in High School. Chorus music never left my heart.
Truly glorious!
This is gorgeous! I can't believe this is real!❤😂 I wish I could sing it!😢
All the goosebumps!!! Love you WC!!
Breathtakingly BEAUTIFUL!!! Thank YOU!!!
and the video just makes it so much better!!!!
love this song and was done so well! Gjeilo would be proud
Amazing! There is a perfect choir. Thanks for this video 👌
My niece sang this song like 2 days ago in her HS Christmas Choir concert. And I fell in love with the song. Listening to it now and them they sound very beautiful ❤
Beautiful! Like angels singing!🥰❣💗👍
Very big flex to the right group of people but I was in the choir that he wrote this song for originally and he accompanied us in our performance and it was incredible. Still remember it many years later
What a magnificent performance! Thank you for starting off my morning so beautifully!
Language is hard to know but the sound that comes from the song is so sweet to hear.
The snow is cold and their song is cool.
Standing on a snow like a mighty warriors to faced against the cold of the snow. Cool is your song to give a little bit warm while standing on the snow. Amen.
THIS WAS SO BEAUTIFUL OMG AMAZING
Loved to sing this in my high school Bel Canto Choir. You guys did it amazingly!!!

I sang this in 7th grade with choir! such a stunning song.
From Argentina 🇦🇷 gracias!!!
this was my all time favorite song we sang in choir
I attend Kent State and we're singing this for our Winter Concert this year. It is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever sang.
Love the song; love the singers; love the diversity.
I wish we'd had music like this when I was in my high school chorus.
It’s such a pretty song. We sand this in choir. Me and my friend thought it was beautiful. The soloist my teacher chose were amazing❤
I absolutely love this! My Junoir high choir is working on this and it sounds amazing! I am so grateful to be able to sing with them!
Simply Excellent.
Semplicemente bravissime 😍😍😘❤
Saluti dall'Italia..🎶🎶🎹🎹❤🇮🇹🇮🇹
Astounding. Both thumbs up to the composer and the performers. Thank you for sharing, keep up the good work, and best greetings from Spain.
Oh that is beautiful.
Beautiful song and chorus
Every year during the first snow of the year I listen to this song and sing along to the Alto 2 part, just like I did when I first heard this song and sang it in choir. This is one of the few songs from my choir days I still remember my part for
Skladba, ktera primo vtahuje do deje, velmi na vysoke urovni. Jedna se o spickove dilo, i kdyz jsem neznala vyznam slov, ihned jsem citila z hudby tu zvlastni prirodu a kouzlo. Velka pochvala autorovi.Az boli srdce a chveje se citem pri poslechu!!!
Que bello, que melodía tan sublime!!!
So impressed
I’m so excited to sing this in class. We just got our music today
The heavens will be rejoicing.
Great video production value, great sound, and great singing! Well done!
This piano 😍
Amazing
The love of my life directed this beautiful song with his high school choir who dedicated the song to me when we first met. This October I will be walking down the aisle to this very same song.
It was written in the stars 🌟
Me and my school sang this song. With it being summer it makes me want to go to school just to sing again 😂
Me emociona hasta las lagrimas!!! lo juro
Wonderful
Singing this with two choirs mixed together for that POWER
same
I’m doing this song for the winter chorus concert at my high school and I love it, it’s so chillingly beautiful, and I get to sing all the high notes because I’m a soprano 1. Yeah
wonderful

Just keeping this song alive!
everytime I hear this I tear up
Love from Indonesia Bali
Very pretty!
Really good
Hermosa canción:")
Omg this made my day :)
my choir director showed this to us and i was _in awe_
Amazing! I love both the Men's Chorus and the Women's Choir. When I hear them I think of the angels and the armies of Heaven. Thank you so much for the inspiring music and the wonderful messages sung so beautifully. The video was nice too.
Thrilling to see and hear this choral group perform this stunning piece
still the most meaningful song even in 2021 😁
I had tingles.
this slaps
❤️❤️❤️
Perfect rehearsal setting during covid crisis
