- Against whom rose. Have you assumed these thorns? Is it your too fragile joy that forced you to become this armed thing? But from whom does it protect you, this exaggerated defense. How many enemies have I lifted from you who did not fear it at all? On the contrary, from summer to autumn you wound the affection that is given you.
Coming back and listening to it again, after we performed it last night, I still get chills. I knew I would cry at least once while singing this piece with my choir. But I didn't think it would be during the performance. Everything just hit me; the message of the passage, the beauty of the chords, and the look on our director's face as we were performing. So pleased. So happy.
I guess that's what music does.
2:14 is seriously one of the best things my ears have ever heard in my entire life. This is what emotion sounds like. When I hear things like this, I think of everything beautiful in my life.
The Chamber Choir of Europe just knows how to pull it off with the PERFECT intensity, I love them so much
I heard this for the first time in choir today, as we'll be performing it for our winter concert. I fell in love with the moving lines. Then I read the translation of the piece, and I got chills. It's so powerful. I hope to do this piece justice.
Just, wow.
Lindo! Conheci pela versão do Leonardo Gonçalves.
After all my years in band, this is by far my favorite I've ever played. Most beautiful thing I've ever heard.
And I was frenh horn 1 so I pretty much always had the melody. :P
Contre qui french horn buddies!
I had the tuba part ( I play tuba obviously lol) but even though my part was "boring" it was a beautiful piece and I enjoyed every second of it
+Ariel Bushel I just loved filling up the autitorium with pure bass tones! TUBAS ARE KINGS!!!
haha same I enjoyed having the melody as well this piece is just so beautiful
1st trumpet getting that heavenly high A!
Those Basses destroy that Db HOLY CRAP MAN!!!!!! 2:14
DON'T YOU DARE PUT A TAYLOR SWIFT COMMERCIAL BEFORE THIS BEAUTIFUL PIECE, RUclips. NEVER.
Well I had a domino’s commercial lol
This is by far my favorite piece. Ever. So gorgeous.
played this piece last spring for band. talk about a difficult piece to learn but definitely absolutely the most beautiful piece of music I have ever heard band and choir wise.
Sang this in Madrigals my senior year. It was the last song we performed together before graduation, and we were all in tears. Made it a little difficult to keep our tone good.
I think we all agree that Lauridsen is one of the most (if not THE most) talented men extant.
Thank you for this video. It made my day when I was feeling really low.
Im playing this for my concert season now & its been 9 months & I still cant get over the beauty of this piece
This will be playing at my funeral when I die...
At 2:56: the most gut-wrenching and shocking but immaculately beautiful suspension that I have ever heard. Brilliant.
Rectorbj - yes. It's that minor 2nd - yes. And this group hangs on to that quite well. Yes - a great moment.
I have the privilege to be singing this.....not only are the lyrics beautiful, but the music matches them perfectly.
I love this. It is so incredibly beautiful. Morten Lauridsen is by far one of my favorite composers.
Played this in band and the choir version gets me every time and I'm not a big choir person but this song is amazing
This piece TRUELY has touched my heart
Contre qui, rose
Avez-vous adopté
Ces épines?
Votre joie trop fine
Vous a-t-elle forcée
De devenir cette chose
Armée ?
Mais de qui vous protège
Cette arme exagérée?
Combien d'ennemis vous ai-je
Enlevés
Qui ne la craignaient point
Au contraire, d'été en automne
Vous blessez les soins
Qu'on vous donne
Whoah! That is really beautiful!
playing this for a concert was so great...
The ending is so beautiful. It feels so unstable, as it should with the D A D E chord structure (Bass to Sop.)
I feel what you’re saying after all these years.
I can leave this world in enough peace now.
One of the greatest pieces of music ever written, and it has only seven and a half thousand views. That is a travesty.
2:14.... Heart Explosion Chord!!!!
Imposible no emocionarse con semejante interpretación.
can't stop listening.
I love this piece soo much. Even though it's only 20 something measures long ;)
Man this is so beautiful
The Chamber Choir of Europe is SOOO good.
And I thought the poem was beautiful . . .
i LOVE this piece so much..I'm sad that during my last year of choir we did not finish this piece :(
2:14 is my favorite chord in music, period
Can't believe I gave up playing my trumpet. So ashamed after hearing this old song.
Beautiful peice =) love it.
I composed a piano piece, with this same title only in atonal style. I believe the atonality equally captures the meaning behind the text, just as this beautiful piece does.
ok, which one u like better... 2:14 or 2:57?
I feel like crying both times.... *sob sob*
Sung this piece back in high school for District Choral Contest 2008.
@selgeaus I may. But not for supporting him financially because I'm sure he's doing fine! Dirait-on was like the GO TO song for choirs for years. I do love him though!
Nothing like a 9 part chord. Pow.
Lauridsen's treatment of the french unstressed and final 'e's is a bit strange for a french singer like me.
He does not follow the classic rules of french prosody, as Poulenc would do, for example, but those of colloquial spoken French.
I don't know if it's by ignorance of these rules or whether it's voluntary. In any case, we are tempted to restore these "e" s where he "swallows" them.
Puede ser una licencia musical. Quienes no tenemos el francés como lengua madre, no somos capaces de imitarles. Tal vez rs mejor elegir la opción que encaje con la partitura.
Das ist göttlichstes "Urgeräusch" (R.M.Rilke)......
This is what angels sound like...
@caraboo4160 Why don't you purchase it on iTunes so that you will have it with you all the time PLUS, you are supporting Lauridsen financially
playing this for band :)
0 dislikes for the voice of angels
2:13-2:20 is the best part. :)
definitely agree! band version is beautiful but the choir version tops it off.
:o
2:15. the melting point
