I have been a choir director for 40 years , and in my life ….I have never heard a more glorious sound ….absolute perfection ….heaven! Best vocal group ever . I’m in awe ….thank you for a moment of heaven here on earth .
Greetings from South Africa. In preparation for the Holy week, I replayed song . I crumbled and cried uncontrollably from these heavenly voices. Oh Gracious Lord, forgive us our sins. We adore you profusely. Thank you Voces8 , be blessed
I love everything Voces8 releases but this particular piece has a special place in my heart. It touches the soul so deeply. A sense of peace and innocent beauty washes over me...thank you so much!
This is like a dream....similar to being back as a young-adult with friends in a choir or acapella group and you begin a vocalise that you do not want to end, because you somehow achieved a harmonic nirvana...No? Just me? Anyway, Stunning!
I feel this way all the time. Performing in music is so astounding and impermanent. The feeling is there, a group effort, and then once people stop making sound it's gone! It's so simple, but so beautiful to behold.
Yes, Drew. But the Beauty that is the music does not ever cease. What happens is that singers and choirs make it suddenly present for our ears to hear, our hearts to feel, our links to meld with others around us. And when they stop singing, part of us knows that the magic is still there, but just less visible.
Death is indeed the door to a better - no, the perfect - world for those who believe and accept Jesus' gift. It leads from the provisional into the true life.
I cannot express how totally stunning this is. Every nite, every phrase and raised eyebrow expresses an infinite amount. In all the current horror and inhumanity, this is a true oasis of beauty and serenity Thank you for being part of this world
A pile of dust that is what we are and will be. Breathtaking music that reminds us of the brevity of our lives and how we need to make every moment matter.
I started listening on my laptop speakers and had to stop a few moments in because I knew this deserved better. Ran and grabbed my high-end headphones are SO GLAD I did. Thank you voces8 for making my shitty day a lot brighter with your beautiful music.
I am so very grateful for the gift you give. Thank you for contributing such wonderful energy with those around the world. May we all strive to spread such light.
While I feel I am utterly grasping at straws when I come to imagine what it took to create this, what it takes to perform it, and what it may take to reach such altitudes again in composition and performance, I know one thing is for sure; I'm so thankful. I'm just so incredibly thankful for being in this moment now, experiencing this second with all of you.
Un enchantement qui se renouvelle à chaque audition de votre merveilleux repertoire. Un toulousain fidèle à vos concerts quand vous honorez la ville rose de votre visite.
Not a single word uttered yet so much communicated. Music truly is a magical medium. For the good of humanity, please sing Geistliches Lied Op. 30 by Brahms. The world needs it. I need it
What a moving piece. I am just becoming aware of Voces8 and my life is better for it. This song is five minutes long with half of that just recovering from that insane climax. Bravo for an incredible performance and experience.
Earth to Earth.. Ashes to Ashes.. Dust to Dust… The way Voces8 deliver Johann’s pile of dust is just so bittersweet and just so perfect for a funeral; we die, we ascend into heaven whilst our bodies turn to dust… Thank you again Voces8. 🖤🖤🖤
Voces8. - Johannsson: A Pile of Dust. (Arr, Rimmer) This stunning piece of Choral music has just blown me out of my comfort zone but in a terrific way. This choir are in no hurry to finish this emotionally beautiful piece of Choral Classic music. You could almost say it’s timeless because it’s so soothing to the soul as well as your heart ❤️ and mind too. What a delightful piece, of which, I wasn’t expecting to enjoy so much. Thank You to the Choir for performing this to perfection. Well Done All. Wonderful !!!
Ooh indeed. Totally beautiful. Huge fan. Can’t wait to see them live again after much too long locked indoors. Voces 8 are truly one of the very small number of things that have helped me keep sane (relatively) over the last 2 years.
I have commented on this video before but I don't care :) It's just so utterly beautiful and striking, with the build-up and the calmness after the climax. This piece just touches something deep in my soul, it makes me cry so often and I don't know why.
This piece truly shows the incredible skill you have as Voces8! Everything is so intentional and controlled, yet you can see the joy and delight. Absolutely beautiful!
So I'm working in Photoshop and random music is on autoplay. This angelic sound fills the air. Me: That's lovely. After a bit the high notes come in. Me: That's gorgeous! A few more minutes of beauteous serenity and peaceful exaltation Me: That's VOCES8!!! So I came here to check and it is! Thank you!
Definitely outstanding. Everything is beautiful: music, singing and singers themselves. I'd rather prefer ties not bows, that's but a detail. The end result is heavenly.

It still amazes me how criminally underrated this is, this should have millions of views.
This is what the grace of God sounds like.

I totally remember those moments.. It's when you think you don't want to wake from that dream...
I've been there. Understand exactly what you mean.

I woke up in Heaven to the Voces of 8 Angels.

Oh yes! I waited for a song with clear soprano voices, flying above the beautiful bass lines! Thank you!
Bellissimo! Grazie!!!

The way Voces8 deliver Johann’s pile of dust is just so bittersweet and just so perfect for a funeral; we die, we ascend into heaven whilst our bodies turn to dust… Thank you again Voces8. 🖤🖤🖤
beautiful sounds - beautiful singers
This is beautiful… it feels like the vocal equivalent of Barber’s Adagio for Strings

Utterly beautiful delivered with perfection.
Am not normally a fan of VEVO videos, but this is outstanding.
So precise and pure and angelic! A beautiful masterpiece!
A beautiful vocal symphony.
So sensual, both aurally and visually. Kudos to the lighting and photography.
Magnificent! Chills all ove my body ♥
Wow, that climax from 2:28 to around the 3 minute mark is outstanding! Another Voces8 performance that outshines the original.
Wonderful!!! You're divine!!! I hear heaven on earth!! Kisses from Turin, Italy ❤️

Magnifique, wonderful and melodious song
Esecuzione straordinaria.. Fantastici.
I’m getting slight Saving Private Ryan/ slow mo war movie scene vibes. Lovely stuff as usual guys.
Like Hymn for the Fallen? I agree.
Too true
Well concluded this time, it starts and grows fainter in a sublime way. My regards!
Ethereally beautiful. Ineffably sad. Utterly amazing.
The sound of this composition cannot be truly conveyed by my speakers, as the music is too inspiring and touching to be replicated by technology.
Definitely outstanding. Everything is beautiful: music, singing and singers themselves. I'd rather prefer ties not bows, that's but a detail. The end result is heavenly.
Thank you so much! my hart is full of love...
Your fabulous voices blend beautiful to present a truly wonderful journey of the mind and spirit! Regards, Will Ortiz
Astonishingly beautiful! Thank you.

I woke up to this playing at random on my IPad…what a blessing, so ethereal
Esto es la sublime perfección y la eterna belleza.
Вы счастливчики, раз вам было позволено это услышать)
优美的和声！
Brilliant!!!
Such an unusual way of making music so that it can sink into your entire body without any instruments to distract the mind .
Absolutely stunning.
I close my eyes and let your beautiful voices take me to my peaceful place...thank you.
