And look, the soloist is with VOCES8 now. 😊
I shall be using this as the Communion Motet for the Advent Holy Communion in my hospital service today. Transcendent composition and performance.
Here we are ten years past Richard Marlow's passing, but he still lives through this. It's magnificent.
Thank you Jesus, source of this beauty, reason and inspiration for the co-creation of this beauty, sustainer of this beauty and enabler of our perception thereof! O Lord to whom this beauty points as a sign, may all created, temporary beauty draw us to You, O Uncreated, Eternal, and Beautiful One
I don't know who could have possibly given this recording a thumbs down!?! Trinity has always been one of the finest choirs in the world. From Richard Marlow to Stephen Layton - Supreme excellence.
No matter how sublime the music, there always seems to be some cranky guy ( yes, it is generally a guy) who takes issue with some violation of orthodoxy.
Maybe a mistake in placing a click?
This wonderful interpretation by the choir and its impressive staging leave you breathless.
On occasions like this, the enlightened human spirit shows all its greatness, to the point of overwhelming the soul of those who have the privilege of witnessing it.
Grandiose!!!
Congratulations and thanks.
Stupendous. Videography that is truly worthy of the performance. This is really without peer. The perfection of excellence.
Very atmospheric. Congratulations to the soloist!
Two things I've learned going down this Voces8 rabbit hole....I really enjoy choir music, and Molly's voice in a chapel/reverb environment is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.
Absolutely perfect. I felt transported back many decades. So sad it could not be part of the Advent Sunday service.
It is always part of the Advent Carol Service. Right in the beginning.
Absolutely thrilling piece and amazing recording, well done to the singers and the engineers!
Shockingly and arrestingly moving. Wonders of wonders.
beautiful
Feeling blessed. Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece. 🙏🏻
Glorious.
This is beautiful, well done Molly and choir
Wonderful - and wonderfully presented - look forward to Marlow's equally splendid Epiphany Responsory in due course...
So moving and beautifully performed. Such wonderful writing by Dr Marlow
Sublime and moving.
Just perfect.
Beautiful, thanks!
Much awaited one!! I love it so much.. Thank you for sharing..
Marlow would be proud. :’-)
So beautiful! 🙌🙌🙌😃😃😃
I am deeply touched by this wonderful music.
Brilliant!
Molly's voice is sometimes a bit masked by the rest of the people in Voces8. Glad I found this video where I can hear her loud and clear. I do realize she was younger here though.
The difference between the boys voice and the girl's voice is subtle, but it is different.
Bach would have been proud!
The well-known chorale tune "Wake, Awake, for Night is Flying" does not come from Johann Sebastian Bach, but was invented around 100 years earlier by the German Lutheran pastor and hymn poet Philipp Nicolai. Although it became world famous through Bach's cantata BWV 140 and his organ chorale BWV 645.
Ich vermisse Mollys Stimme bei Voces8😢
Indescribable😄
Marlow would be proud. :’-)
