Positively one of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard. Thank you, Thijs Van Leer. Thanks also to Jan, Bert & David.
I used to whistle this while walking across campus. 34 years ago. Thanks for the memory.
did you manage to whistle the whistle solo too?
Yes! Back in those days I was much better at whistling.
Were you delivering milk?
Me too!!!!!
Me too but 40 years ago
Masterpiece from the great prog rock band...missing those instrumental concept albums...the clock was ticking differently back then...
Essa música é muito linda. Uma das minhas favoritas do Focus. 😍👍
Masterpiece that never lost anything as time passed.
This tune is what Europe sounds like to me.
There is an enormous church standing in the middle of Koln, Germany and when I found myself standing in sheer awe of it's size and grandeur this was the tune that immediately popped into my head. Sure, it wasn't Strasbourg but hey, close enough for me. If i am ever fortunate enough to go to Europe again Strasbourg, Austria is on my list of places to visit, particularly any cathedral within it's environs.
When you're in Europe next time.
There is one like the one in Köln in Milan and in Barcelona too.
Strasbourg(France), Salzburg(Austria)
Absolutely beautiful. A highly original and underestimated band. Love it.
3:36 - 4:12 just 4 notes, pure bliss.
technically 5 as it transitions between major and minor. The "2nd" note in that arpeggio hops between the natural and the sharp depending on the key of the section. But because the other 3 notes are the same, it really gives an effect that it is the same 4 notes.
I’ll take your word for it, and stand corrected. Bottom line: it’s beauty is it’s simplicity.
@@jonhd7952 I completely agree! I just now read and realize it sounded arrogant it wasn't my intention. But you have great taste to be here.
This song should be from the book "the fall of the house of Usher! Drama, beauty, suspense, harmony! It has it all! What a treat for the ears!
Check out "Tales of Mystery and Imagination" by Alan Parsons Project if you are interested in their interpretation of Edgar Allen Poe.
@@Porphyrios9856 I have the CD. I love it!
This album was one of the first I ever bought. I still listen to it quite often.
I bought it too. After Focus, I was hooked!
I just took a stroll through the cathedral. I gazed up at it's lofty rafters and felt the coolness of the stone against my palms, my nose sensed the fragrance of the ages wafting through the mighty doors. Outside I skipped through the spring flowers and heard blackbirds sing. Perhaps I was watched by those that lay entombed all around me.
Paul, I think you may apreciate what is the human condition.
Stepping out of a Sacred Place is always strange. I remember I stepped out and was trampled by the sound of cars, crowds, and a guy sitting in front of the Church playing the hang drum.
The real Cathedral de Strasbourg is really a masterpiece of cathedral-building, with that sole spire....
Recuerdos de mis 17 años ahora con 62 me emociono aun mas . Gracias Focus
Sexually excited?
So evocative and powerful. Focus were unique. Absolutely superb.
Such a beautiful and atmospheric piece of music. Strasbourg Cathedral is an awe inspiring building, like a huge medieval space rocket.
La Cathedral de Strasbourg (ding dong ding dong)
La nostalgie se reveille
Amazing album! Focus were SO far ahead of their time. Thanks for posting!
A wonderful song about a wonderful cathedral.
Wonderful Song !!! Instrumental, Voices efects, etc.. Wonderful, Wonderful...
masterpiece, 10 stars........
I love Focus and this period from 1970-75. Incl. Mother Focus. A bit sad they didn't last longer. But everytime I hear them it's Garden of Eden.. from Denmark - Peter Thomsen.
you can still see them - i am in england and will be seeing them next week in Cardiff. The 5th time in the last 5 years. Still great. Two of them are members from there heyday
I deliberately stopped of on an interrail trip and played this at 8.30 on my Bluetooth speaker outside the cathedral. Sublime experience.
I visited the Strasbourg Cathedral in June 1980 because of this song.
Coisa mais linda !
A beautiful place and a beautiful song.
Bobby It sure is Booby I mean Bobby.
A beleza dessa composição é indescritível (na minha opinião|)
+José Roberto Araujo Na minha opinião também, Zé. Abraço do seu velho aluno Álvaro.
Abração Álvaro. Saudades.
Concordo plenamente.
Uma viagem particular!!
Fui a Estrasburgo para conhecer a catedral, subi mais de sei lá quantos degraus. Que emoção!!!! Fantastique
Yet another sublimely beautiful track from Thijs van Leer....the JSBach of our times.
Breathtakingly Beautiful! Clay Wilson
Simply Perfect!!!
This album will allways in your mind
.
Used to put this track on when I had a headache..found it strangely soothing
Maravilloso
Peace...din don din don ...la nostalgia...
Focus - jedna z mých milovaných skupin ze 70.let. Ty mě ovlivnily na celý život! Krásná skladba
Great album this, great band, was lucky to see Focus live at Hammersmith Odeon back in the late 70's or early 80's
Zo mooi
perfeita...
I love this song so so so much!!!!!
Era el año 2002 ,1 de Noviembre para ser exactos, y con Thijs estabamos en el teatro Municipal de Viña del Mar. Llamamos al funcionario encargado de los instrumentos, se metió la mano al bolsillo y extrajo un manojo de llaves. Se encamino hacia la parte trasera del escenario y abrio una puerta semiescondida que estaba allí. Empujo un enorme piano hacia afuera y lo colocó casi en el medio del escenario. Lo demás fue un sueño. Thijs se sentó en el taburete y comenzó a tocar esta canción. Fernando, Gonzalo y yo nos mirabamos asombrados. ¡TENIAMO0S UNA VERSIÓN DE LA CATEDRAL DE STRABURGO SOLAMENTE PARA NOSOTROS!!!!! Fue el mejor regalo de esa visita de Focus a Chile en ese año, 2002
First slept within the sound of this beautiful building's bells, history and groanings,v in 1975.
AWESOME !!!!
Sublime !!
Fabulous!
Gracias Red Bullet!
So beautiful and gentle,great arrangement.
What a great song to have stuck in my head.
All engaging and lovely.
gracias !
diiiing daaaangggg....
Hudba mého mládí. Superb
4:12 I'm dead? Is this the paradise?
secondo me, beato chi ha avuto l'occasione se non (direi pure) la fortuna di conoscerli i Focus, a mio parere un grandissimo gruppo. Peccato che siano poco conosciuti, ad esempio, in Italia se non (forse) ai più maniacali seguaci dell'onda progressive rock anni '70
Agree. Wonderful. Listened 10 times this morning.
Belobelobelíssimooo 🌻🌼🌷
I can die now and die happy.
Heaven.
zseniális
Para meus Bêbês se acalmarem quando precisarem... pois são tantas as vezes...
bjs,
Mammy
I felt as if I was magically transported to this beautiful cathedral. Masterfully arranged and a testament to the creativity and versatility of Focus.
Wspaniała muzyka.
heavyweights of music.
this is one of my favourite pieces of music of all time, where can i find more songs like this??
Tales of Mystery and Imagination, Allan Parsons Projects.
+Beth Kelly Great music but I can't hear a lot of resemblances with this song, are you referring to a specific song on that album?

This is from a time past, there will never be anything else like it. Unless you have Focus' "Moving Waves" album.
This is from The Witcher video games. There are tons of these, and you'll find more than youever could imagine! One of my favorites to get you started! Listen to it all the way through,. it will be heaven to your ears! ruclips.net/video/rYX8pnRscoY/видео.html
Bach or Beethoven playing hard rock!
Focus una banda de rock diferente con algúnos Aires de música clásica, disfrutarlos.
good
Oh the piano part for this piece is so fun to play. Also much easier than it sounds
Just starting to work on it to add to my prog medley...hope it's as easy as you say...all about the feel methinks!!
Arguably the finest thing they ever wrote..
drumdad54 sdl: sadly the "Bert" you named died end of March 2022 , 73 years old. R.I.P.
Get well soon Thijs and the other Focus members who have covid xxxxxxxxx
I don't know which came first, and I don't care, but does this remind anyone else of the music of Michel Legrand, for example the soundtrack of 'The Go-Between'? Both wonderful and we are all so lucky to have lived to hear both. Or maybe that's just me :)
Well spotted! Both beautiful music! ❤
I'm sorry it took me eight years to reply, but you're so correct. Bach - Michel Legrand - Focus. It doesn't matter... it's all beautiful!
J'ai connu, bien, ce que c'est, que de dormer pres de ces murs historiques et sous la pluie.
Nôtre Musique du siècle dernier... Avant la Fin de la Musique du siècle présent...
Whats not to like about this music??? how can there possibly be 7 dislikes here???
Bunch of idiots. This is a masterpiece...one of the most beautiful melodies ever created.
Because everyone is different, of course!
Want it to continue onto the next album track...Birth. but it doesn't.
FOCUSSSSS ❤️❤️⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐SIN PALABRAS A UN SUPER GRUPO ✌️
Esta musica te para una guerra, hermano.
Fabulous!
Bach - Focus. That's im gonna say ALWAYS.
