    This is the most unhurried, serene, and beautiful performance of this I think I've ever heard! What amazing control over the line and what amazing ensemble skills. There's a reason why this group is just simply one of the best in the entire world. When you only have one singer per part (this piece has eight individual parts) and you tackle a work like this which was probably written for a much larger group (I sang it once with three times as many singers as Voces8 and it was a challenge!) your instinct is to move the tempo as fast as you can reasonably get away with -- so nobody runs the risk of running out of air with nobody to stagger breathe with. Not to mention it's just easier to perform at faster tempos without a conductor. But these folks just take all the time in the world and spin these beautiful, long phrases and never seem to run out of air; every line from every singer is just beautiful. Wow. Just wow.

    Oh Halleluja :)! Be blessed All of you. I cried the whole song. I cried because of Jesus mercy to me and my life. I walked through two divorces. Lost my job after 19 years. The only savior in my circumstances through this hard experiences is Jesus. I can only confess He is my savior ! The last time it was at 14th November in year 2020. I felt lost and depressed. I felt I have no future. The Jesus saved me from death and I only can praise him for his endless love to me. He is the only savior to me and for All mankind. Please, give your whole life to him. He love you and have a wonderful plan for you. Many blessing to you :)!

      additionaly: Kyrie is always at the beginning of the mass and considered sort of an "entry" to what is going to follow. As from experience Kyrie in my opinion is one of the most beautiful parts of a christian mass. Composers always go beyond their capabilities in order to capture your ears for what is to come

    The level of synchro perfection you singers have is incredible. Its like one voice with all the highs and lows. Sublime!
    Every song you sing is perfection. The visuals are also stunning. What a masterclass of artistry both visual and auditory.
    I had never heard of Josef Rheinberger before I heard Abendlied, which means Evening Song, and its so full of regret and longing, of things gone and deep longing to have them back... and this led me here. My daughter died, in the prime of her life at 37, to cancer. When I listen to Abendlied, she is back in the shadows where I can feel her breath again and hear the tinkling of her bangles and the click of her heels. Thank you dear singers, for taking me back there for a brief moment. I'm overwhelmed with gratitude. You are all superb and it was a privilege.

    Sang this (2d bass) with my church choir: a profoundly moving experience. But this interpretation is far and away the standard toward which all may strive. The musicianship, the control and balance, as well as the spirituality, of this rendering of Rheinberger's Kyrie is unparalleled in excellence.
