I had the honor of singing this piece before it went out for publication. That took place in the mid-1990s. And every time I hear this piece, I still feel the same love and serenity I felt years ago when I sang it the first piece. What a masterpiece. I hope that some day this piece will be revered like the Mozart Ave Verum Corpus.
A lovely rendition, but I still feel that the human voices of a choir are really what give this works such a special meaning and resonance. The words are important. The sound of human voices are what give it the most meaning and reverence. It is the prayer and praise of Mary herself as she has given birth to the saviour of the world, knowing also what he must do to complete his mission.
Un grand merci, c'est magnifique! O grand mystère, et admirable sacrement, que des animaux voient leur Seigneur nouveau-né, couché dans une mangeoire! Heureuse Vierge, dont le sein a mérité de porter le Christ Seigneur. Alleluia! fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_magnum_mysterium
Usually I don't listen to songs with religious meanings but the melody is so beautiful, yet a little sad, and I can't stop listen to it.❤
This is a beautiful accompaniment to prayer. I find my focus on Our Lord is greatly enhanced and my prayer life more meaningful. God bless you.
Any one, and every one, aught to listen to O Magnum Mysterium, at the very least, once in their life time, thanks for sharing the music.
This piece will never fail to make me cry!!!
Beautiful! I can hear the words being sung by your cellos.
I hear it sung by the Angels!
Ein Klangerlebnis! Einfach nur hören.

Hi, John!
😭😭😭 so beautiful
The most stimulating piece of music is indeed Lauridsen's Lux Aeterna.
Stunning. I have sung the choral version and this brings me to tears.
It does bring tears 👍
Absolutely!!!
Excellent performance
Meraviglia
I can' t listen to this too much- thank you.

Ein Klangerlebnis!
O great mystery and wonderful sacrament that the animals might see the Lord, born, lying in a manger.

Un grand merci, c'est magnifique!
O grand mystère,
et admirable sacrement,
que des animaux voient leur Seigneur nouveau-né,
couché dans une mangeoire!
Heureuse Vierge,
dont le sein a mérité de porter le Christ Seigneur.
Alleluia!

Where can one find an all-cello arrangement of this piece?
