The performance was dedicated to the congregation and loved ones affected by the tragic killings in Charleston, SC on June 17, 2015.

I’m included in this performance!! This was such a wonderful experience.
What an incredible honor and experience! I sang this incredible choral work in 2004 with a newly formed choral society then and the only word that can describe it was wow ❤❤❤❤❤
I had the joy of singing this at Carnigie with John Rutter conducting.
I had that same experience in 1990 or 1991 (the exact date escapes me). I wonder if we were on the stage together. I was a member of the group from Marvin United Methodist Church from Tyler, Texas.
Wow 😮 so luck to perform this with the maestro himself😊 I performed this in college
What an experience!
12:42 The absolute highlight of a wonderful performance by the choir, orchestra and conductor. This young lady has an exquisite voice, which undoubtedly trained, still sounds perfectly natural and unadulterated.
At Epiphany of The Lord parish in Toledo, Ohio we are preparing to sing this beautiful work as our final performance in our Sacred Heart Church. Our beautiful church will soon be closing, and we wish to leave a fond memory of gratitude to all those who came before us.
Humanity at its finest, in every sense. Every time I hear it I mourn my parents and son anew.
You have to wonder. It's more than notes on a scale. And, there are only a few composers that truly embrace, our heart and soul. I have a theory...these men and women are Angels on loan; God's way of letting us know, we are His beloved children and each note is a tap on our shoulder, with God saying, Be Loving And Good To One Another.
Tears in my eyes due to the beauty of composition and performance. But the love driving the composition is awesome.
To whom much is given...MUCH is REQUIRED...
Pie Jesu ... of sublime, profound, and celestial beauty.
Roy Eco 😍😍😍
Agree with you - we must appreciate thergeat composition by English composer Rutter, who is still alive and deserves more accolade - his Christmas carols are popular & performed all over the world. I sang in the tenors of my chi choir this particular requiem in our local church in one Easter . The memory is with me in my life and has helped me in dealing with challenges in life including a recent major operation in hospital. The music is soothing as it makes connection with the divine for hope, forgiveness & healing.
I sang this in college over 20 years ago and I’m still remembering the words! It’s beautiful
Absolutely beautiful, love the richness of the soprano soloist's voice!
Lovely. Brings peace out of tragedy.
Absolutely beautiful. I have used this to rehearse with between choir practices. BOTH sopranos sang wonderfully.
this substantial choir gives a sensitive rendition of this piece.
Ahhh that soloist for Pie Jesu~~~ Gorgeous!
roselover411 thank you so much!! It's such a lovely piece to sing ❤️
All the participants deserved to have the place filled to capacity. It’s a shame more didn’t get to experience it in person as it truly was magnificently performed. Thank you to all involved!
This is the best version I have ever heard.
And the soprano...wow.
There are two soprano soloists
Oh my gosh, the soprano soloist is absolutely stunning! Just an incredible performance.
Breathe... phew. Couldn't agree more. WOW! Literally one of the best performances of the Lux Aeterna solo I've ever heard. Gonna go cry now...
I am Chinese.
Congratulations.@@SunLightStorm
Great soprano, very natural, not too much frills, love it, stay like this
Rutter's Requiem....still as beautiful as ever!
I am Chinese.
@@SunLightStorm made me rofl
This piece of music got me through a night of sickness and anxiety. Thank you so much for making it available on RUclips. God works in mysterious ways.
The VOICE of God always finds us - even in the darkest corner. BLESS YOU, Abby
[Dare I to say] that this is better than the Cambridge Singers!
If only I could have sat in this concert and heard it directly with my own two ears!
How did I not find this earlier???
Dr. Cook, thank you!
Everyone who is brave enough to practice and sing in these concerts, THANK YOU!
I am Chinese.
I love the ending Requiem, how it comes full circle. The opening Requiem is haunting and frightening, but at the end, it's progressed to something warm and comforting, and I love that so much.
I am Chinese.
22:55 - 24:43 never fails to give me chills
It always makes me weep! When I sang it several years ago I had goose bumps and tears simultaneously.😢
BIen belle version.
01:11 - Requiem aeternam
06:59 - Psalm 130: Out of the deep
12:42 - Pie Jesu
16:47 - Sanctus - Benedictus
19:04 - Agnus Dei
24:45 - Psalm 23: The Lord is my shepherd
29:53 - Lux aeterna
I hope this glorious music will enable us all to be increasingly compassionate, caring and aware of the aspirations of others (because they are so much like our own).
I am Chinese.
I can live with it when they're *not* so much like our own too.
Do not know many people who I think would actually get that exact thing out of this music but I do know what you mean.
Thanks for posting.
What a stirring and profound performance.
Loved the oboe solo. Beautiful performance
This is such a beautiful piece of music, that it can literally bring tears to your eyes.
I am Chinese.
I couldn't have imagined this rendition would be so supernal and. inspiring. There are parts where I close my eyes and see myself together with a huge mass of people crossing a portal heading towards Heaven..
I am Chinese.
Remarkable, healing, sweet peace...listen.
@@SunLightStorm ?
Don Donaldson's Heartland Singers performed this at Carnegie Hall on Thanksgiving Sunday November of 2001. What was also memorable was the fact that the World Trade Center attacks happened 2 months previous to our performance. On addition, Mr Rutter's son had passed away shortly before our performance. To say we were emotional..would be a huge understatement.
Such a beautiful performance - absolutely heavenly .
The lovely young lady who did the Pie Jesu solo was magnificent - not artificial whatsoever - just sweet & genuine.
The 23rd Psalm soloist was equally pure & inspiring!!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words!!
Heather Huron Are you the soloist for one of them? If so, which one?
Yes, the Pie Jesu :)
Second that.
A jewel by and in itself - no need of other jewels. Rutter always leaves us with a deep feeling of hope over and above regret, dispair, pain or even suffering. And that is a touch of Inspiration with capital "I". Moreover whem death, separation, grief and farewell are the reasons to sing, to assemble with the choir, to tune with the orchestra. God bless those holding such natural human gifts.
I am Chinese.
@@SunLightStorm E eu não sou. Sweet dreams
wow wow wow one of the best ive seen of Rutters works!
I love this! I played and sang this in HS. I’ll never forget the feeling.
This in my humble opinion is the mother of all Requiems of the 20th Century. I love the melodies and harmony. Psalm 130 Out of the Deep is exquisite with its blue notes, and use of the solo Cello. Pie Jesu is equally so moving, it bring me to tears with the Boy Treble. Perfection! I am writing my own requiem, and wonder if I can now after hearing this masterpiece.
my choir is singing this piece for our concert this thursday, it’s such an amazing piece to sing. my favorite movement from the piece as a whole is probably movement 5, which is “Agnus Dei.” it’s just such a powerful piece as a whole, i really enjoy it.
So lovely...I came onto this and it gave me so many memories singing this in college many years ago. One of the most beautiful pieces I've ever sung.
Me, too, at Stanford.
A beautifully sung requiem
Praise God for Jesus who is the resurrection and the life!
Yes, a wonderful performance. Great choir, soloist, orchestra and conductor! Thank you!
Wonderful! Thank you all and God bless you.
Wonderful performance. Our choir did this piece last year. A grand experience.
Jim W my church choir has done this too! Love love it!
Sweet thanks to the oboe.....wonderful sound....
Sublime!
De mooiste requiem die er ooit gemaakt is🥰 zelf ook een paar keer gezongen in een koor.
Echt een hemels stuk🙏🏼
Requiem 1:10, Out of the Deep 6:59, Pie Jesu 12:43, Sanctus 16:49, Agnus Dei 19:05.
Wow. Still, the best I've heard. Moving and moved by the tribute. So probably was the choir.
I am very grateful, TY
Stunningly beautiful. I cried
I had ever sung this song.
Beautiful song.
I like "For the beauty of the earth"too!
I had ever sung this song.
beautiful song.
I like "For the beauty of the earth"too!
De toute beauté. Merci.
Having sung this requiem..very lovely!
Oh, that last transition back to the first A theme. *chef kiss* it's perfect!
beautiful singing, especially the lord is my shepherd.
Beautiful Hymn!
Such a gift and joy and also privilege to be a part of your incredible performance!
Wonderful performance. I love being part of a festival where everyone rehearses on their own then they all come together for just a rehearsal or 2. That coming together to make awesome music is something just magical!!
Heaven and it's hosts
Love me. Now I know
There is hope.
Wow. Absolutely wonderful performance. Both Soloists were awesome. Thank you for sharing.
I love the soloists... including the oboist. I'm not a huge fan of trained, operatic voices. I like the pureness of these lady's voices. Fits the work so much better.
That’s Rutter-English sacred choral singing, pure tone.
前にCDで聞いた時、ソプラノソロのきれいな可愛い声が素敵でした。ビブラートはない、ひとつひとつの声が少女の心の小さな言葉のような、きれいな声でした。
Ich danke Euch!
Amazing Performances
BRAVO! to all involved in this wonderful performance.
I'm crying. This is so
Pretty.
Songs like this are interesting to the soul
Absolutely superb work, superb performance. One of the best.
An astounding and amazing piece to perform, I’ve sung this in college 😊
My choir is preforming this on Tuesday with an orchestra for our Christmas performance I can’t wait
So Beautiful ! Thank you!
Magnificent!
Beautiful!
Rutter is a genius of melody with deep heart--all his work hits the emotions in the center where the divine sits inside of us where we often do not know--but the music brings it to the surface in all its beauty!
Your comment brought tears to my eyes. I've been trying to identify what moves me so deeply when I listen to beautiful music. It brings me into union with the Creator of the Universe.
@@vickimednick2845 Thank you for your tender comment!💌
Marvelous. Glory to God.
Gorgeous!
Absolutely gorgeous! Bravo!
So beautiful.
Amazing, so beautiful.
Wonderful !
Bravo, so glad I found my way here.
Sublime. Thank you for this wonderful appropriate tribute.
Très belle interprétation, superbe ensemble.
Very nice! Beautiful song!
Lovely performance! Thank you for sharing.
Lovely job, everyone! Just beautiful!
I sure hope this was a dress rehearsal with that many seats empty. I can't imagine anyone in SC would not take an opportunity to hear this great reproduction, well done!
Seems like everyone is wearing performance attire not casual.
If I had known of the concert, I would have attended.
I am Chinese.
Beautifully performed.
Beautiful.
Beautiful 🙏🏻
Wat een ontzettend mooie uitvoering, deze Requiem!!!
Magnificent oboe at 24:48 where the 23 Psalm begins!
This is brilliant! Brilliant in conception, in tone, and in presentation! Thank you so much!
I love this, we are singing this piece in about 4 weeks. Great job, inspiring!
Exquisitely done. Absolutely lovely. I've conducted this work twice myself and it is my personal favorite. Congratulations on the best recorded version I've ever heard. Kudos to the recording engineers too! Brilliantly performed and recorded.
Bummer on the missed entrance in The Lord is My Shepherd though.
@@ParisblueCos I didn't notice they missed it until I finally listened to the Cambridge Singers under J. Rutter perform it. I think the mistake almost makes sense - just a little bit of practicing and I think it would sound better even than the way Mr. Rutter wrote it originally (please, I mean no disrespect and I understand that my ears prefer certain sounds so I don't know how others would feel about it.)
@@buahcs It is a bit of a weird entrance as written so I totally get what you're saying here.
Lovely, sung this also with small village choir, possibly not as beautifully as this. Gorgeous.
Absolutely A beautiful Mass Choir and Sound.... Good Job From Nairobi.
Fantastic
