I've never heard a choir so perfectly in sync with one another. The blend, the shape, the dynamics; it all happens as one voice. It's breathtaking
My thoughts exactly.

awesome !
I've grown to love the repertoire and musicianship of this brilliant choir. So, again, thank you for something so beautiful on an overcast Saturday afternoon.
Mr. Gjeilo did write this one. He is a terrific composer. His Sunrise Mass is absolutely gorgeous, particularly the last movement, "The Gound", which can be heard here in RUclips.
Must be what music sounds like in heaven.
A wonderful version of a beautiful piece of music. The choir is quite magnificent.
At 63 it seems I learn something new nearly every day that I wish I had learned earlier in my life: like how easily something as beautiful as this presentation can bring tears to my eyes. O Magnum Magnificent!
Bob Jefferys you’re still a young boy
Wonderful, Bob. Sadly, so few of us in our third life can say this. You have a companion on your journey, even though we will never meet.
Amazing !
This choir and piece excite the essence of my existence. It is ABSOLUTELY celestial.
Composer Ola Gjeilo is so great! And this choir knows how to respond him! LOVE IT!!!!
Mark from Ireland brought me here and I am in so pleased he did. A composer new to me.
Unglaublich wie ausgewogen dieses Ensemble musiziert. Faszination Pur. Ein herzliches Danke für dieses schöne Werk.
Esecuzione perfetta,massima fusione delle voci in una armonia celestiale, solo pochi cori riescono in questo difficile compito e voi ci siete riusciti in pieno bravissimi!!!!
What an amazing arrangement. Gave me chills. The choir are just so perfectly blended! Well done!
I can't believe it! At my ripe old age I am falling in love with yet another composer. Ola! You are WONDERFUL!!!
Thank you for writing to beautifully and inspiringly!
Composer Ola Gjeilo is so great! And this qhoir knows how to respond him! LOVE IT!!!!
Just sang this for Christmas. So beautiful! We had a cello rather than a violin, which I think was more soulful. Though I think this choir has us beat for the purity of the sound.
i LIKE TO SING WITH THIS MARVELLOUS CHOIR. SO SWEET, SO HEAVENLY, SO LIGHTLY
Another Christmas and I’m here again. Thank you for this magical interpretation of a heavenly beautiful song.
God Jul / Merry Christmas
It is as if this music has been written to let a heart of stone melt.... and get soft., and full, and deep..... its beyond all that is common.... its very moving.....
Stunning piece of work, and superb performances by all.
it really brought tears to my eyes I love it it is so beautiful
Palistrina could not have composed better and the presentation is heavenly!
Unreal. Phenomenal.
Like a light in the darkness my very soul is laid bare for all to see
Stunning piece of music, love every moment. Thank you for creating this for us.
Es una de las cosas mas bellas que he escuchado en mi vida
Meraviglioso 🎉
this is simply wonderful
Who are the trolls that can give this a "thumbs down"? This is astounding in its beauty!
Hi! This piece is indeed written by Ola Gjeilo. Morten Lauridsen has composed another beautiful piece with the same lyrics and title"O Magnum Mysterium",which we also have recorded on our CD "The Darkness is No Darkness".
absolutely sublime.
stunning
Amen... is all I can say.
Mi inchino a tanta bellezza!
Wonderful. I am glad to know this Choir and their singing. I have already the experience to sing in some choirs, however, this is absolutely amazingly!!
Bravo ! God bless you !
Latin text
O magnum mysterium,
et admirabile sacramentum,
ut animalia viderent Dominum natum,
jacentem in praesepio!
Beata Virgo, cujus viscera
meruerunt portare
Dominum Christum.
Alleluia.
English translation
O great mystery,
and wonderful sacrament,
that animals should see the new-born Lord,
lying in a manger!
Blessed is the Virgin whose womb
was worthy to bear
Christ the Lord.
Alleluia!
Magnificent choir !
Stupendo!
WOW!
Die Intonation wird vom ersten bis zum letzten Ton gehalten ! Brilliant..Hätte mir vom Dirigenten ein etwas großzügigeres Dirigat gewünscht
Wow.... wow..... I can't say anything.... Wow.....
@ Ditulin Thank you. I will look that up. : )
I am also a big fan of Arvo Part's compositions.
Stunningly gorgeous!
FANTASTIC!!!!!
I feel like I’m in heaven
Very beautiful!!!
Beautiful! For those who love his music, check out iTunes' BEST OF 2012... Ola's album of choral music was just named Best Classical Vocal Album of 2012!
BRAVO.BRAVISIMO...BRAVO.BRAVISIMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Wonderful!!!**** I Love it! Greetings Gregor
sounds incredible!
Brilliant!
I Love this
Stunning gorgeous!
We totally agree! :)
Absolutely Magnificent💖 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Pity about some of the cracking noises on the recording 🎙
Thank you!
Beautiful
Bravo
,
Serenity indeed
Schön gesungen😘
Magnificent!
Wow!
Wow!!!!!
Hi!
Yes, @olagjeilo sure is a great composer and we love to sing his work. Please go to our video channel and look for another piece from Ola, called "Phoenix". Enjoy!
Thank you! :)
Piękne.
Thank You. I appreciate your reply very much. :)
Thanks! :)
Thank you all for your kind words!
Zum Dirigat: Einer meiner Lehrer sagte: Wenn Musiker anfangen zu musizieren, um Himmels Willen, bloß nicht stören! Ein großzügigigeres Dirigat würde m.E. mehr Unruhe produzieren als nützen. Ich selbst neige dazu "ausladender" zu dirigieren, jedoch (s.o.) ist nicht das manchmal eben kontraproduktiv.
The overtones o: wow
congratulation for winning the GPE 2012..
I wanted more consonants. I just hear vowels with this group, give me hard T's and a "K" on Christum.
It's a noun not a vowel
GAH. I WANT MORE! ALL OF IT! Please. Tell me where can I find more.
💜💙💚
I love the precision (generally) of European choirs. Get the notes right, first and foremost, because that's what the composer wrote. Other aspects will follow.
Wow, I've never heard his music before, but this is beautiful. Does anyone have a link to sheet music?
Très beau ! et je plaide pour que le violon soit remplacé par une clarinette veloutée bien sûr!
Fantastic! I was really impressed with your work! Congratulations to the conductor and the wonderful voices of the choir! How could acquire this score? If possible, I'd love to!
LORD JESUS CHRIST, have mercy on us all - truly, it is a blessing to behold such eloquence as this. ❤️💛💚
Jesus was just a man and God doesn't exist. Just FYI.
Dazza Howard Thanks for sharing your insights!
Not-knowing is true knowledge.
Presuming to know is a disease.
First realize that you are sick;
then you can move toward health.
The Master is her own physician.
She has healed herself of all knowing.
Thus she is truly whole.

This sounds like what you'd hear after an epic anime battle
Why is the violinist in the front of the choir? He should be on the side, the singers are more important! IMO. BTW, awesome heavenly sound, really soothing and inspiring
@bennih1990 it does...
La música es parte de Dios.
But wasn't this piece of music was written by Morten Lauridsen? Ola Gjeilo is a Norwegian pianist.
It's not just you.
You are very good and Gjeilo is a real genius! My choir sang "Days of Beauty" and "The Rose" using a new arrangement and adapting the songs for male and female choir, making spectacular videos with stunning scenery and views. Write this in the search: I hope you like it!

is it just me or does it really sound like the lord of the rings?
No! You are not the only one.
Ahh, I would really2 love this recording if there was no coughing sound just like in 1:36
wat me hoe langer hoe meer begint op te vallen is, dat een dirigent geen enkel gevoel voor metrum heeft, hij telt en voelt niet aan hoe de melodie zich een weg baant door de muziek ... het stoort me mateloos, want we hebben het niet nodig en het zou beter zijn om het individu te 'redden' als die in het water gevallen is ... daarom 'vond ik de M-pad uit', ik was soms zo mee met de muziek dat ik het blad dat voor me lag uit het oog verloor en dan was er wel die schat van een Patrick, die mijn partij zong tot ik terug bij de groep was, maar zoiets kan je dus niet maken bij een optreden of een examen. De M-pad is op jouw partij ingesteld en val je eruit, dan druk je op de rode knop, waarna er afgeteld wordt, zodat je zonder problemen kan ritsen en zo zijn er beschamende momenten voorkomen, want het mag geen laatste oordeel worden ... muziek was een deel van mezelf en daar wenste ik geen water bij de wijn te doen, zoals liefde mocht het elke vorm hebben, zolang het bereikbaar bleef ... ik hoop dat Sophia, Ola kent (en vice versa), zodat het tijdens het proces is voortgegaan, ik moest kiezen tussen ratio en emotie en wist dat ik op andere vlakken verder stond - tijd is ondeelbaar. Niks is onmogelijk, als je het maar goed aanpakt en de Heilige Voorzienigheid moet geweten hebben dat het altijd al een Sofie's choice was, want je kan nooit het ene helemaal opofferen voor het andere, ook al zijn er momenten dat je het andere even in de ijskast stopt. Achteraf bekeken is alles gelopen zoals het hoorde, het scenario dat je nooit zelf had kunnen bedenken en zo weet ik zeker dat iets ons bevattingsvermogen overstijgt zonder dat het ons passief maakt. The circle round!

Whose making that noise in the back ground? go out if you cant be quiet
Frodo!
I think Ola Gjeilo would be discontent with this arrangement. Originally it is composed with choir and cello.
Sounds to me like he doesn't disapprove when he's actually posting this on his own Facebook timeline today. Very beautiful performance!
OK. If he is content with this, then I withdraw everything I said.
He wrote it for choir with cello or violin solo.
It doesn’t sound right with a violin playing. It requires a much deeper, richer sound like the cello. The choir was excellent, however…. Get rid of the violin and use a cello would make it perfect.
