I heard this on the radio for the first time the other evening whilst driving home from work. I had to stop the car because it made me cry. So beautiful.
Music does that to me too.
Me too in my car and i stop too
It's truly a moving song.
Try listening to Boulez. He makes a lot of people cry too.
So awesome that you finally discovered it. I also first heard it on the radio way back in 2004 as a kid. Was listening to Classical WNED out of Buffalo NY. That station is still around to this day. :) It was through that station that I was introduced to this piece, among many others, that to this day remain favorites of mine. So timeless and breathtaking.
"Mamo, nie płacz, nie...
Niebios Przeczysta Królowo,
Ty zawsze wspieraj mnie.
Zdrowaś Mario, Łaskiś Pełna".
(modlitwa wyryta przez młodą łączniczkę ZWZ-AK w celi katowni gestapo. Poniżej modlitwy znajdowała się inskrypcja:
Zakopane Palace, cela nr 3, ściana nr 3. Błażusiakówna Helena Wanda, lat 18, siedzi od 25 września 44").
[Helena Błażusiak nikogo nie zdradziwszy przeżyła tortury, a także udało się jej zbiec z transportu do obozu. Zmarła w 1999 r.].
one of my favourite pieces of music I have ever heard in my entire life. I see galaxies when I hear it.
i totally agree this is from god
Overwhelmed with love and light. I sobbed the first time I heard it . . . all I wanted was my son. I later learned that she is singing about the love between mother and son. Wow!
Wonderful comment.
Perfect comment from you. Thanks, Indyana.
Agree, unbelievably moving and beautiful. Zofia is an angle.
this song is based on scribbles left on the wall by young polish girl murdered by Gestapo (hitler's police) in Zakopane, Poland during WW2. Incredibly simple and incredibly powerfull music.
I wept the first time I heard this not knowing the lyrics. So amazing how important the arts are for telling stories and connecting people. It isn't possible for me to know what it was like seeing the etchings on that cell wall or being a victim of the Nazis. However, when I hear this, I get the tiniest glimpse of the pain and suffering that so many endured. Thanks, Gorecki for composing such a beautiful and gut wrenching piece of music. And thank you to art and music for connecting us all.
My mother survived the death camp that was Dachau but her father died there. She never spoke of her experiences there but I am so lucky she lived because she was the best mother anyone could have.
Nie NAZISTÓW TYLKO NIEMCÓW .
Please can u write the lyrics i couldn't understand it
True.
I don't understand a single word, yet my soul is overwhelmed by her majestic voice.
in the second part of the Symphony, the composer used the text of the inscription carved by 18-year-old Helena Błażusiakówna on the wall of the Gestapo torture chamber "Palace" in Zakopane, where the young highlander was held in 1944. This text: "O Mother, do not cry, no - Heavenly Chaste Queen, you always support me", ends with the prayer call "Hail Mary".
It’s based on a little girl poem scratched in the wall of a concentration camp.
Basically it’s. Mother mother were are you I can’t find you im scared
Then you did understand every word.
It's very good that they chose a Polish soprano because version with soprano Dawn Upshaw was little cringe.
@@kamilsalega I read that Górecki detested the Upshaw version
thank you my mother survived the holocaust but was never a zionist; there is a place for us all to live together. Thank you!!!
bless her and her soul! may her memory be a blessing
The awful agony of those who witnessed the holocaust must never be erased. Bless your mother and wishing her every peace! Love from Eire ❤
This seems one of those pieces of music that should end not with applause but a holy hush.
Well said.
The setting for this recorded performance is magnificent.
"a Holy Hush" that is very good
Listening to this brilliant composition evokes feelings of desperation and despair so unjustly imposed on human beings. What one man can do to another is beyond imagination. Let us strive to become better human beings each day we live.
There are 3 differing scenarios that Gorecki attempted to address in his Symphony No.3. A child, a little girl tells her Mother both of endearing love and of mournful separation, the second is of a lost child, the mother's boy who is she believes is dead and the Mother cries to the earth to Love her son and then there is one in which there is simply a separation which is represented by significant mournful suffering.
Rarely does a piece of music resonate through your whole body like this one. It felt like all the cells in my body were swaying as one with this piece. So moving and emotional.
everytime i think i'll keep it together and then she hits those high notes and my eyes just water all on their own
Trappa skunk it's not you crying it's your soul
The first time I heard this it overwhelmed me. Tears running down even tho I didnt understand a single Word. Its so powerfull.
Been listening to this piece for decades. Nothing comes close in its sublime but hauntingly beautiful human experience. Thank you thank god thank the universe
This first time I heard Gorecki's Symphony 3, 2nd Movement, I was living in the South fo France and it was fall time. It was gray outside., raining and the air was cold. I remember having incense burning, perhaps a fire in the fireplace. It left such an impression on me. Several years later, I was listening to it on my walkman living in Kyoto, Japan walking in the snow. Triple wow! That movement just grabs me.
Lyrics translation I found:
No, Mother, do not weep,
Most chaste Queen of Heaven
Support me always.
"Zdrowas Mario." (*)
Prayer inscribed on wall 3 of cell no. 3 in the basement of "Palace," the Gestapo's headquarters in Zadopane; beneath is the signature of Helena Wanda Blazusiakówna, and the words "18 years old, imprisoned since 26 September 1944.")
(*) "Zdrowas Mario" (Ave Maria)-the opening of the Polish prayer to the Holy Mother
Sean4Help... Thanks
in Zakopane
One of the most heart touching pieces of music I’ve had the pleasure of hearing. Thank you. Thank you to the composer, the performers and the majestic singer who can make an old man cry every time I listen.
Donald Lord let’s appreciate this fine piece together man, I assure you that every time I hear this I get very sentimental and I understand how you feel, it’s amazing how this song can touch people from all ages... amazing
Thank you so much!!!
I heard this first 30 odd years ago, by headphones from a small DAB radio from what I found out to be Classic FM. I was cutting back a laurel tree, had to stop sit and listen. I subsequently got the CD from W H Smiths, I still have it and still play it. There are many superlatives easily to describe this. You all know what it's like, possibly one of the greatest pieces of music ever written.
Do you know where this was recorded? I’d love to know which cathedral this is.
Ouch, 30 years ago was the 2000s...
My, how time passes 😢
That's in Krakow, Poland. @@carolinepollard5455
this 'breathtaking cathedral' is actually a St. Mary's Basilica, one of the main landmarks in the Royal City of Krakow
where so much pain and sufferin has happend, a deep bow those how surived the holocaust, and brought the nazis to hold, in the jusitice court, looking them straight in the eye, those mosters, a deep bow for this super humans
hearing this wonderfull music, the horror of the holocaust, and the evil nazis, with no regard for life, al deep respect for the holocaust survivors
which is where my mother's family came from and she was in fact a holocaust survivor. Tx for mentioning this beautiful cathedral!!
If your tears fall to this beautiful voice and music…. It’s is your souls release xxx
Has to be the most powerful combination of a beautiful voice and wonderful day orchestra, conductor and venue. Moved me to tears.
A beautifully emotional piece to describe the most horrific event in recent human history
To what event are you referring? 3:16
@@paks2muchjewish holocaust
One of the most horrific
A masterpiece one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever produced
100% agree.
@@johnkropczynski3358 me too from the horrors of the holocasut and the surivors of that time a deep respect

A deeply moving performance of one of the most profoundly moving pieces of all time. I find the harmonic change at 7:10 (start at at least 7:00) to be one of the most beautiful and moving changes in music - a sort of "letting go, and letting God" moment.
Stunning words here ❤
Close your eyes and let it go!
Yes,- let all the concerns go and just open up your heart and soul to the majesty of music in the human voice.
No, life is not just chaos, there is great beauty and joy in the human experience. And don't look for a two-second "I LOVE IT"" when you click on this button. Not everything in life revolves around instant gratification.
This music like a great love story takes time, not a lot of time-but when your heart opens and you go to the other dimension beyond just hearing with your ears and capture the true bliss of this magical video.
If you listen to this music by yourself in the dark of the night and quietly by yourself, don't be surprised if you are visited by a loved one from your past .. and you will feel a powerful, yet gentle spiritual presence of love embrace you and you will weep tears of sad joy.
I don't understand it either..... just accept the mystery and "Let it be."
May there be fair winds guiding you in life and may you go to beautiful places ~~~Mike Jacobs
It's almost like Henryk Gorecki was somewhat channeling "HE WHO IS" when writing this piece. It's justy ridiculously celestial! Hard to top the beauty of this symphony.
Such a longing, an ineffable ache that resonates with the soul.
Gardens of pain watered with the tears of generations lost.
Gentle beauty flows from pain that echos across the decades. We must never forget.
I agree that this version is superior! This song is so beautifully heartbreaking and Kilanowicz conveys every ounce of the song's emotion. Moves me every time.
its devine and the surivors of the horror of the holocaust a deep respect for them mean the jews how have the most scars
Beautiful, yes sorrowfull, but turns sorrow into joy from such a tragidy. Inspiring and motivating. Never forget ❤
One if the most moving pieces of music I've ever heard. I just heard this on the radio and it stopped me in my tracks 🥺🥺🥺
Cette voix d'une grande pureté me transperce le coeur comme la pointe d'une épée et je comprends l'immense douleur de toutes ces mères désespérées à la recherche de leurs fils partis à la guerre. C'est extrêmement poignant !
This voice of great purity pierces my heart like the tip of a sword and I understand the immense pain of all these desperate mothers looking for their sons gone to war.
The story behind this music is so heartbreaking that I can barely listen to it. Yet it is truly beautiful. This is indeed the sadist music I've ever heard.
One of my most favourite pieces of music of all time. 🎼🪔🎼🪔
I heard this the first time performed by Ms. Upshaw during Czech Republic's presidential funeral. I immediately started crying and still do. Absolutely mind blowing.
Zofia is magnificent. Such emotion and sorrow in her performance. One of the most moving pieces of music I have experienced. Sir Gilbert Levine is so pationate in his conducting. Bravo.

BÂSE SOUS - MARINE ? EN BRETÂGNE .
I got stucked by this moment in my chair and my mouth astonishingly open wide while following her chanting those Polish words of agony😢😢
I see souls returning to heaven when I listen to this
I came here from the soundtrack of a movie: Beautiful Boy. Never heard about Gorecki before watching the movie. His Symphony 3, Op.36 is outlandish. This particular performance is as magnificent as entire universe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Me too! I just watched Beautiful Boy and had to find this piece of music. So beautiful!!
Me as well, loved the soundtrack but this piece is the best!
Also used to great effect on the film, Fearless (1993),about a man who survived a plane crash
Came to descover this piece same circumstances. How did I search on my tv screen at the end of the list for the music of this film!!
Me to : I can't stop listening to every version I can find
The first time I heard this piece of music , after three or four minutes I started to cry , so beautiful is it ! :'( I have never heard such a beautiful piece of music ! I came to this beacause Sarah Brightman has a version of this on her new album ! :)
I also discovered this beautiful piece thanks to Sarah...
This beautiful piece is a vocal rendition of soul searing grief. I rarely listen to it as it reduces me from the word to hopeless tears. It is without hope.
I know how you feel. My mother in fact survived the death camp that was Dachau but her father died there. I feel so lucky to have had the best mum in the world who was also my best friend.
This superb composer makes all who listen to his music cry..there is no one like him.
I went on a tour to Poland. En trip of 7 day's to the shoah history. 7 days 7 concentration camps. Then thinking of those innocent people who lost their lives 😢😢😢. And listening to this wonderful music. Makes me cry al the time 😢😢😢
Wonderful 😢😢😢
Next time visit Ukraine and the rest of Eastern Europe to know the history of the Holodomors.
Każdy jego utwór, jest wielki. Zarówno minimalistyczne "Święty, święty", jak i wielkie symfonie. Mistrz Górecki!
Merci pour l'écriture polonaise !!!
This is hauntingly beautiful. It speaks of such tragedy and loss, that people can't fail to be moved by it. It could have been written for Dawn Upshaw's voice. She is able to communicate the melancholic beauty, like no one else I have heard.
This is not Dawn Upshaw.
@@shinylittlegoldfish unfortunately
This is not Dawn, this is a Polish soprano and it's performed in St. Mary's Church in Krakow. It has little to do with melancholy, it is poem written by a young girl on the wall of a Nazi prison to her mother before she was murdered there
@@shinylittlegoldfish Fortunately
@@BytomGirl It was a Gestapo cell in Zakopane and she was not murdered. Helena Wanda Błażusiakówna (born 4 February 1926, died 25 July 1999). The prayer is not to her mother, but to Mary Mother of Jesus:
Mother, no, do not cry,
Queen of Heaven most chaste
Help me always.
Hail Mary.
A most beautiful rendition. Skin-tingling! This music is so highly charged.....I hold on tight, rising and falling, tears in my eyes!
Jeez. I haven't listened to this beautiful piece of music in a while. This performance is breathtaking.
Pani Zofio, doskonała interpretacja. Brzmienie Pani głosu, szczerość emocji i wrażliwość serca jaką Pani posiada powodują że za każdym razem jak słucham tego utworu w Pani wykonaniu ...mam łzy w oczach.
An advert in the middle?
La musique la plus émouvante jamais écrite...merveilleuse Zofia Kilanowicz,et quelle magnifique cathédrale
This should have 363 million views.
the audience is better than me , cause if I heard that live you would hear me sobbing from the end of the church.
The only song that always makes me cry.
i first heard this on the radio and it struck me- was able to find the name and its a true favorite
Absolutely mesmerising! My heart ached, and my throat 'closed' with emotion.
Very moving piece. I can't help from crying.
One of the most beautiful and powerful pieces of emotion 🌹
It is the symphony I have listened to the most times, by far, in my life, and it is part of my personal soundtrack.
Moves me
Always will
Hope it will others
all my polish friends swallow their pride, one didn't, about the pronunciation. achingly brilliant.
So beautiful and so sad... The symphony was written under the influence of the words, of an 18-year-old Polish girl - Helena Blazusiak: "Mom, don't cry, don't.", engraved on the wall of the prison cell number 3 of the boarding house "Palace" turned by Nazi Germany into a prison and torture chamber in the Polish mountains of Gorce in 1943.
Compulsive, hypnotic, inspiring, beautiful.
Unbelievable, out of this world
and the story behind this masterpiece is terrifyingly moving.
and a deep respect for the holocaust surivors how would bring the people to justice and facing them in the eye like in the nuremberg trail deep respect wich people have sufferd
Watched and listened again to this moving peace of music. Not heard Zofia doing this before and I just wonder how she holds it together. It has made lockdown well worth it. I shall go and pull myself together.
I first heard this on BBC radio 6 music , Marc Radcliffe and Stuart MacConie show. Many years ago, lit the torch for me to explore other music. Thanks lads. ❤❤
WOW... Chills up and down my spine, tears in my eyes and in awe of such wonderful singing... Well played chaps and Beautifully sung too... *sighs* :0)X
This is on the John Hopkins playlist for psylocibin therapy. I found dignity love respect union with nature that day. Such a powerful trip. Anyways every time I listen to this piece again it just makes me cry automatically. One of the most powerful pieces of music I’ve ever heard.
ciarki przechodzą ....brawo Pani Zofio
Your mother is wonderful and blessed, as you are. Peace and love to you family. Xx
Simply breathtaking...I am writing a a book of poetry on a tragic recent war and though the poetry is very humorous they are also really tragic like any war ...this part of the symphony touches me so deeply that I hear the mothers cry and the fathers sigh...! Thank you Górecki . Wow
The most beautiful thing i have ever heard.
I was lucky, as a Friend' of The LPO, to attend a rehearsal of Gorecki's music at the London Festival Hall. Was totally entranced, then and every time I hear this. Absolutely beautiful singing!
Polish classical music is inrepeatable-top of the top
The lyrics were garnered from a Gestapo holding pen of torture and brutality from a 15 yr old Polish girl. The lyrics are concern for her mother's suffering upon learning of her daughter's probable death. She did not concern about her own future, but that of her mothers. Gorecki lost his own mother at age 2, which traumatized him. The mother/child/separation theme can be found in many of his works.
what. a. voice. Advert right in the middle pretty appalling though, great work youtube!
Esta obra do Henrik Goreck é fantástica e a interpretação da Zofia Kilanowicz é maravilhosa! A voz dela deixa minha alma inebriada e me leva a superiores esferas espirituais. SInto que estou sendo transportado para o mundo espiritual! É maravilhoso e fico bastante feliz e emocionado!
in the second part of the Symphony, the composer used the text of the inscription carved by 18-year-old Helena Błażusiakówna on the wall of the Gestapo/German Nazi/ torture chamber "Palace" in Zakopane, where the young highlander was held in 1944. This text: "O Mother, do not cry, no - Heavenly Chaste Queen, you always support me", ends with the prayer call "Hail Mary".
Thank you so much for your translation!!!!
not Błażusiakowna, but Marusarzówna.
I heard this haunting and yet beautiful music 25 years ago and will never forget it. When I knew the story of the lamenting voice it made me cry.
Perfect....i was driving in my car when i first heard this..couldn't believe it ...so powerful and emotional.......
I listen to this while I am typing my dissertation. Moving and yet unyieldingly sorrowful. Amazing how the mind can correlate music with inspiration- even a song so sorrowful as this.
Ja Ich verstehe sie Yes I Understane you complete volich ganz, volledig. Lammert Doedens. I am also writting on my book witch this music.
Nancy Ann
I’m listening to this while I am eating my dessert
I was driving in my car today when this piece came on my Symphony channel...Luckily, it was labeled, and I had to find it online to hear it again. So heartfelt and beautiful a piece! Bravo Zofia!!!😍
I will always love this piece and beautifull performance of Ms Zofia Kilanowicz
Gorecki's 3rd is the first classical album I ever bought back in high school. I sent away to germany to get it as no easy web ordering then. I can certainly see where the pro Dawn Upshaw comments are coming from. But this is also an excellent version. Dawn had that nice slow delivery of the notes that gave it warmth. Zofia hovers in like an apparition and lends it more of a lament. Not sure if I can explain it technically not being a vocalist. I love both versions and would happily buy this.
😆
Co Cl wow! that got real ugly. you bless and much as you curse?
Co Cl ...Foul mouthed idiot 👎
I think you captured it perfectly. I was also thinking Upshaw is more angelic like an angel singing it down upon the earth; Kilanowicz is more earthy/human like the mother who lived it.
@@theothererik1128 thanks for reminding me of this video!!! Time to close my eyes and and listen to both versions again!!
Big Big Love to Poland and thank You .
Absolutely beautiful
6:34 always gets me. Such a beautiful piece.
What a beautiful voice...love this piece! Thank you all.
Das beste aus Gorecki's dritte Symphonie! Falls Sie wenig Zeit haben die komplette
3° Symphonie anzuhören, nehmen Sie die Zeit für diese 2° Bewegung! 9 Minuten reiner
Genuss! Innige Musik für jeden!
Fresh on my memory, can not recall other occasions that may have had this kind of joyful, beloved impression left on my emotions, ater exposure to an experience as such.
Absolutely Marvelous.
All those who died during the holocaust will find comfort listening to this music in heaven.
Achingly beautiful. Thank you.
i bought this album years ago. I love it, I am not a huge fan of classical music but this does it for me. So so good.
Paul R
I love many styles and felt that this piece was like a slow rock song with big chunky power chords layered over bass.
Not a classical nerd but love this
And I have tickets to experience it live in November 😀
From time to time I hear this magic Symphony... it is Wonderful
Perfeito ! Imortal ! Magnífico!
POUR TOUS LES LES ÂMES PARTIES QUI ONT SAUVÉ NOTRE MONDE...et mes proches.
An Absolute Masterpiece... My soul flies with this, this makes me a human...
Absolutely impressive Sorrow which is growing towards HOPE
absolutely beautiful deeply moving nothing like brought me to tears
I heard this masterpiece in 2004 on the Spanish National Broadcasting News after the 11th March Madrid trains bombings (193 killed and more than 2500 injured).
This shympony with the images of 2'3 millions of people under the rain in Madrid and other 11 million people in the the rest of Spain the day after (12th of March) was very impressive.
I was seven y.o. but I remember that like it was yesterday.
Beautiful beyond words
Marvelous piece of music
When something really bad happens - something so evil that even following generations are in awe of the horror - then is a time for reflection / or is it an attempt at understanding? There is a string I believe flows from Jehovah - it travels through the composer and into the soloist and she sings the most heart rendering songs.
I'm a Jehovah's Witness. Part of my family line is Jewish. This music hits me very hard. If I get to the New System, I can't wait to welcome back my family.
Oh my God,My soul can fly whit this piece,my ears felling soooo good!This piece talk with the most deep part of me!
Bravo! 👏What a magnificent voice!
December 28th, 2000 concert of London Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir in Saint Mary’s Basilica in Krakow, telecast as "A Thousand Years of Music and Spirit", with Bogurodzica (the oldest - 10th-13th century - Polish hymn, addressed to Virgin Mary and sang in churches, but also as an anthem by the Polish knights before battles, such as the battle of Grunwald /1410/, the battle at Varna /1444/ and during the coronation ceremonies of Polish kings), the 2nd movement of Gorecki's "Symphony of Sorrowful Songs," Op. 36, and Beethoven's 9th Symphony. Originally broadcast by Telewizja Polska, rebroadcast in the U.S. by WTTW/PBS. It was one of the concerts to commemorate the Great Jubilee of the Redemption (Christmas Eve 1999 to Epiphany 2001), Gilbert Levine conducting after he was the Artistic Director and Conductor of the Krakow Philharmonic, from 1987 to 1993 and Pope John Paul II invited him to the Vatican which resulted in a series of concerts, including this, and eventually in Levine being invested as a Knight Commander of the Pontifical Equestrian Order of St. Gregory the Great (KCSG) by JPII and then, in 2005, honored with the Silver Star of the Order of St. Gregory the Great (KC*SG) by Pope Benedict XVI. Zofia Kilanowicz, turns out, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2000 and after a period of trying to learn how to cope with it, she made a comeback singing this very pieces as a tribute to Pope John Paul II in 2007 and thankfully continues to perform, teach, judge competitions etc. from a wheelchair.
