I listened to this song often when caregiving for my Mom. It was just so beautiful! I viewed my last year of taking care of my Mom (2013) as walking with her to heaven’s gate. When that hour actually came, I had Pandora on and sat reading aloud some Bible verses. Ave Maria came on Pandora and my Mom actually died during those ten seconds of the swirly violin music. I pictured it as the gate to heaven opening to receive my Mom, and that I was given just a taste of the glory to be found on the other side. This song always moves me to tears and reminds me of God’s thoughtfulness to me as my Mom reached heaven’s gate.
I want to encourage you. The fact that you said you often listened to this song when caretaking for your mother and you had that specific view; that mindset while taking care of her. Then when the time came and she departed from this realm, that same song was playing, to me, that's synchronization. It's another way the Lord speaks to us showing us He's there and we're on the right path. That confirms to me that she is with the Lord. I pray that this song will always bring thoughts of goodness, memories, and peace when you hear it. Additionally, since it has been 5 years since she passed, 5 is the number for grace and in some cultures it serves as the link between heaven and earth. I pray that you'll be shown even more grace this year. I don't know if you're feeling her loss more this year than previous years, but I do hope that this comment blesses and uplifts you.
I'v being seriously struggling with my faith for Months, I had spoken with a very brilliant French Priest previously. I heard this song on local radio, lyric f.m. while sitting at the traffic lights. Then I something beautiful and amazing happened to me, I received the love that only a Mother can give, with absolute love and peace.
Her voice is one of the finest I have ever heard, and this rendition utilizes it perfectly, with every swell accentuating her emotion and every subtle note displaying her mastery. Beautiful.
There are no words to describe the beauty of this angelic voice... Spectacular... Breathtaking... Exquisite... Sublime...Magnificent... Ethereal.... Pure... Divine... Perfect... One of the all time best version of Ave Maria....Absolutely one of the best voices ever....Truly a gift from the Heavens.... A treasure of earth and not just New Zealand... Too bad it is not live.
Hayley Westenra is the best singer in the whole world, whenever i listen to her she gives me the goosebumps! i love to sing too, and i hope one day i will be able to sing like her! x x x x xx
Hayley westenra has a suching beautiful voice ! She's so amazing, just like an angel ! I would love to meet her one day and tell her thanks and what i can feel just listenning hher voice !
jamas había oído cantar así a nadie¡¡ esta canción es un regalo de dios para quien lo busca, gracias Virgen mía por dejarme sentirte en esta canción ....
By far the best version of Ava Maria I've heard... thou I'm not a professional. The other classical singers for this sing that a lot of people are fond of don't deliver the same chills with their versions. The difference between "classical classic" and "modern classic" interpretation I suppose :/ which the former doesn't fit as well into this exact "moment" of time frame.
Morgan Angelo I dislike opera singers because of their vibrato and haughty sound that strikes me as pretentious and false. Thus I prefer Hayley's version the best of all the Ave Maria's.
plumeria66 Without denying the sheer beauty of Miss Westenra's sound, there's no way a voice so light and breathy could project over an orchestra without a microphone. Opera singers are trained to sing un-miked in much larger spaces over much larger ensembles. Call it pretentious if you like - but you can't deny it's pretty darn impressive for a person as tiny as Natalie Dessay to sing unmiked over an orchestra. Look her up and see what I mean. :)
I agree. First time in years a performance literally gave me goosebumps and adrenalin rush. Makes me want to go buy a set of Klipsch speakers instead of my BOSE and listen again
@@plumeria66 if u listen to the GOLDEN AGE early operas, they aren’t like this at all. If u listen to Maria Callas, Patti, Corelli etc. their voices aren’t pretentious and doesn’t sound ‘false’ at all. Hayley is A pop (classical pop) singer. Modern opera singers nowadays don’t really know how to sing properly. The kind of ‘vibrato’ u described aren’t actually vibratos. They are what we professional classical singers describe as the ‘wobbly voice’ (wrong way of doing a technique + lack of breath support)
I was at a shop two days ago & I bought her Cd This might sounds funny, I live in New Zealand & I know more about overseas singers and musicians & their songs & much of Kiwi musicians I am glad that I bought her album & she got a voice like an Angel 😇 🙏, Happy Sabath everyone, aroha from Aotearoa, New Zealand 'ofa atu 💗
i so so shame it took me ten years to bump into this beautiful perfect voices,,,,,,it is never too late as her voice in many decades will remain intact beautiful,,,thanks so much....
by no means Caccini (BTW he was called in his lifetime more often Giulio Romano after his bithplace, not Giulio Caccini). this composition was written by Leningrad guitar and lute player & composer Vladimir Vavilov. due to lack of the standardly adopted musical academic education as composer, he had no other way to perform, print, promote and record his works doing the false attributions to the well-known Renaissance or Baroque composers. this version of Ave Maria also utilized the only two words from the prayer to Our Lady, not the whole text. the first recording of this Ave Maria was first released on Melodiya label as a work of anonymous author, later re-attributed to Giulio Caccini. sharp harmonies used by Vavilov weren't in usage by European composers before 18 century. the composition was incorporated first to an album 'European Lute Music of 16-17th cc.' with Vavilov playng lute. sung for the first time by Nadezhda Weiner (with composer accompanying the lute and Mark Shakhin playing the organ), it raised its popularity due to the effort of Lithuanian soprano Inessa Galante, who has recorded it as Caccini work in London.
@@alcofribasnasier2732 This is true.. I knew this a time ago I posted this .. Now, every time I posted this precious Ave Maria, I put the name of real author.. Excuse me ...Sorry .. I will arrange my mistake ... Greetings
Her voice could warm the coldest of hearts and cheer the saddest of the world. If a beautiful voice could cure the world's problems, i think we would truly be free thanks to this angel.
We saw Haley in concert in Birmingham United Kingdom in 2007 unfortunately there was a bad snow storm and the concert hall was almost empty but it meant we could move places closer to the front. Hayley was sublime...
2 words. 3 syllables. But thanks to Hayley Westenra we have one of the most beautiful moments in music I've ever heard... Truly the voice of an angel...
lay back, close your eyes and take in every single word of this song with her amazing voice, its so relaxing and soothing, one of my favorite singers ever
@univocalic agreed...her voice is just overcoming of the senses...as most of us...we applaud in awe and praise her for her talents....indeed we are blessed to hear her voice.
I listened to all the other versions I could find on you tube... and this still takes the cake... how is she not getting supreme notoriety for this performance?!?!?!
hayley sang with anuna in traditional choir style which basically means you dont show expressions on your face or body. but she is play backing but love it all the same
This version of Ave Maria sung by Hayley Westenra is by far the best I've heard. Others just don't compare.
I just lost my mother yesterday and this version of Hayley is helping me to cope with the pain... Mom wherever you are, I will always love you....
Your Mother is absolutely 100% in Heaven.
God bless your mother...god be with you..
この曲がかかった瞬間、車から見える景色が変わりました。青い空、白い雲、揺れる木々、風までもが命を吹き込まれた様に感じました。
この星に生まれたことだけでも幸せなんだと、苦しんでいた自分が解放された瞬間でした。素晴らしい作品ですね。
曲と声音がこれほど美しく融合して心に響いてきた歌は聴いたコトがなかった。ほんとうにすばらしいHayleyさんのAve Mariaです。永遠の歌声だと思います。
How I imagine an angel would sound. Pure and perfect voice.
my thoughts exactly
I'm not convinced she's not an angel.
I don't know of any angels in an operatic work.
I feel like I’m in heaven listening to her version of Ave Maria
I have listened several versions of the Ave María by different interpreters, but this is among the most beautiful! Congratulations

Beautiful！
こんな美しい歌だったなんて…
When beauty comes, theres no words to use to describe it

Flawless perfection indeed
I know. The Virgin Mary is worthy of love.
ヘイリーさん、やっぱすげー。

I have listened to alot of people sing this song, but none so clearly and soul piercing as Hayley
Y・Tで知った私の好きなクラシックの一つです。
曲自体は単調な旋律で、歌詞も、アベマリアの繰り返し・・・・
なのに、心に訴えるモノが有リ、聴くたびに感動を深めるカッチーニのアベマリア♪
そんな、たかぶる気持ちを、とても美しく歌い込まれ素晴らしい音楽に会えたように
思います。アベマリア。。。有難う御座いました♪
Magnifique, grandiose, sublime, divin
Just a heavenly voice, like no other.

Best singer of ave maria caccini. Her rendition is so angelic and heavenly.
天使の歌声が悲しげな旋律を際立たせていて、胸を締め付けられるような、切なくなるようなそんな気持ちになりますね。
There are many Ave Maria ... But this from Julio Caccini ... is touching indeed ....
Wonderful perfomance ....

take in every word? there's only 2...
I love her voice with this song. Every other one sounds too... idk the right word, but I guess old will have to do.
Beautiful angelic voice!! Love this Caccini version - her voice certainly does it justice. ♪♫♪♫♫
David Pádraig Cox Vladimir Vlavilov wrote this, not Caccini. In 1970. He dedicated to baroque composer Caccini.
@univocalic agreed...her voice is just overcoming of the senses...as most of us...we applaud in awe and praise her for her talents....indeed we are blessed to hear her voice.
