If I ever asked for all my favorite songs, and some of my favorite instruments to be mixed all together into one beautiful work, THIS WOULD BE IT❤❤ I hear this and I can't help but think about God's greatness.
Beautiful new work
Dan Forrest you are a musical genius. God has truly gifted you. Thank you for using your talents and gifts for his glory.
So wonderful to relive the experience!!! Thank you Dan Forrest! Thank you John Grecia! And thank you Wayne Oratorio Society!!
Wow! Beautiful. So much emotion stirs up in me listening to this gem. Can’t imagine having the privilege of actually hearing it live in that beautiful church!
Such a beautiful, large and dynamic piece! A joy to have been the audio engineer for this project!
I am so grateful to have been a singer with the Wayne Oratorio for this!
Thanks for posting this! Magnificent! So much emotion and beauty!
I was honored to be a part ofthis gorgeous "CREATION" in with the handbells! Tha k you John and Dan for this amazing time with such an expressive and beautiful piece
I feel so fortunate to have been one of the Wayne Oratorio singers for this!
Was so lucky to have seen the UK premiere 20/4. Wow amazing,uplifting and joyous 🌞
I see some of the musicians and choir members commenting here. Thank you so much for bringing this piece come alive for the first time, listening to this really feels like being brought by God to when He first created everything.
I can’t believe I was a part of creating this opulent sound lush grand piece… it was trial by fire … I had no idea what I was getting involved in … having not being able to sing in a choir for many years due to health problems … asthma - thought I would never sing again, lymes, bulging discs, Covid “doing it again” in NYC on the day of the solar eclipse…. I listened to The Lion Sing exactly as the moon crossed the moon. The tears are still flowing … thank you John and Dan and WOS and Tim and Bertina … much much love
Idk why the comment is my daughter’s name … Thank you BettieAnn too❤DianaMaria Soulshine
Thanks for posting this, It helps learn the music :)
Dan understands Faith and it's embrace of nuance and beauty. ..a wise disciple.
Magnificent!
I would so like to be a part of a large choir. Singing with a large group I makes one lose their own identity and molds you into one voice. It is beautiful. Merci bien! BEI. 17:37
Gorgeous! I'm looking forward to singing this with the Rivertree Singers in June!
Me too!
I'll be joining you all flying in from Los Angeles!
Hey we’re doing that
Edit: Hey, we just did that
Old stylish composition nothing to do with modern classical music. The introitous rooted in the catholic music tradition. Congratulations for this piece!
I'm thrilled to be joining the Rivertree Singers of Greenville SC in June 2024 for a performance of this magnificent work.
I am also thrilled to be joining the Rivertree Singers this year as well. My name is Jonathan Lazenby and I'm from North Carolina. I look forward to meeting you and the rest of the singers in South Carolina!
My daughter and I, along with 4 friends, are traveling from Minnesota to be part of this festival! Looking forward to meeting you!
@@maureenotremba6233 I'm flying in from Los Angeles. Second time in the Festival.
Brilliant! Could someone post the text?
