- In June 2020, an impromptu duet between a PSU School of Music & Theater student, Madisen Hallberg, and a professional opera singer, Emmanuel Henreid ("Onry"), captured the hearts and imaginations of millions of viewers. Shared on social media and news outlets around the world, this simple moment of beauty between two strangers was a balm for our wounded souls, reminding us that the arts have the power to bring us together and heal us.

For this holiday season, the PSU College of the Arts invited Madisen and Onry to come back together once more and sing a new duet, a call for peace in our world: Dona Nobis Pacem, or "Grant Us Peace." Often attributed to Mozart, this contemplative round has been sung in liturgical settings for centuries.
May we all find peace this holiday season and in the new year to come.
Madisen Hallberg is a 2020 PSU Jazz Studies graduate and budding recording artist. Find out more about the program at www.pdx.edu/mu.... Hear more of Madisen's performances on Spotify: open.spotify.c...
Madisen and Onry were meant to sing together. I am so glad they did this second duet. I can't say enough how proud I am that I chose to go to Portland State University. Let Knowledge Serve the City and Let the Gift of Song Bring Peace to Our Hearts! PSU you are forever in my heart.
How many ways can you say beautiful!!!
Truly beautiful! May we be granted Peace throughout the coming year. Let it be so.
A beautiful thing to come out of our city at a perfect time!
deeply moving, joyous, and so perfect to post in these times of deep strife. Madisen and Onry's vocal harmonies are an exquisite expression of the social harmony we all need to foster. thank you so much for bringing them together for us again. this video is honest and perfect. I love the moments of just walking together at the beginning, great opening sequence. can't rush a good thing.
Once I quit crying, I will finish this note...okay, better now...heartbreakingly lovely...so very grateful that you created this and shared the amazing talents of Madisen and Onry once again. Wishing Peace and Goodwill to all!
Fills my heart... beautiful! 🩷
Bravissimo!! The song by itself is such a beautiful opus, but for me it is the story of these two artists that is the most beautiful. Thank you College of the Arts for bringing them together again, and thank you Madisen and Onry for sharing with us the beauty, power, and majesty of this piece. Peace be with you.

한국인 유학생입니다. 노래 좋아요. 학교에 대한 자부심이 생기네요. 좋은노래 감사드려요.
Bravo!!! It’s breathtaking. I’m so glad my son decided to attend PSU.
Gary, it is a one of a kind university. As an alum I can tell you I enjoyed my four years there.
Knowing how these two met makes this even more special. What awesome vocal chemistry and I love their genuine smiles!
Back again to listen for another Christmas. I sent the video to all of my students not only because the song is beautiful, but because I am SO proud to have gone to Portland State University. Let Knowledge Serve the City and Let the Gift of Song Bring Peace to our Hearts! PSU you are forever in my heart. Christmas 2021
absolutely sobbing! this needs to be listened to everyday!
I would buy that Christmas album, beautiful
Thank you for sharing, I miss my years at the park blocks.
Or as my Mom used to hear when I sang it, Donuts and Coffee. Fantastic rendition.
Reminds me my PSU days. Miss it a lot ! Peace and Harmony.
I loved singing a third harmony with them! Played it over to do it again.
A real gift to this season. Thanks for thinking of us!!
Beautiful!
So lovely! Thank you!
beautiful!
Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, dona nobis pacem.
Amen. Only He can bring that Peace.
Bring back many pleasant memories at PSU and Portland.
Amen! And thank you so much.
Beautiful, important performance and fantastic filming. Thank you, thank you. I am saving this to play daily.
I so needed this today. Thank you.
Lovely. Thank you.
Grant us peace !!!! Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Beautiful duet...❤❤
Absolutely beautiful.
Give us peace.
Thank you so much for such a beautiful song, with such a positive message. I watched the video three times in a row, and twenty minutes later I still have tears in my eyes, the same tears I've managed to hold in throughout this horrendous, depressing, tumultuous year.
I'm a PSU graduate, and familiar with campus. The suspenseful silence at the beginning of the video, coupled with the singers meeting up in areas of campus that would ordinarily be teaming with activity, but now appear deserted, had an effect on me. It made me think of you as a couple of survivors from an apocalypse, or as green buds sprouting after a forest fire. Watching Onry and Madison's silent acknowledgment of the BLM mural hit a nerve.
It occurred to me that your song isn't just about ending a terrible year on a beautiful note, but that it's also filled hope, and respect, and love, and serves to mark a rebirth, a new beginning.
I promised myself I wouldn't go on and on but, oh well, this was worth it. Lol
As a fellow Portlander, Amen amen! Cannot listen without tears.
How lovely and moving!
Beautiful. Thank you
Thank you.
Thank you, I needed that.
So beautiful!
Exquisite!
beautiful..
Amen
Nice set!
Bravo! stripped down grit and 'real'.....
dona nobis pacem
Hi, are these two parts written out or recorded separately somewhere? If so, could you point me to a place where I could learn these two parts? (I'm a very mediocre singer, but would like to learn and sing this with my husband.)
Everybody needs to pretend they are cryin' with their best friend there.
Where is this filmed?
Downtown Portland
@@zombieninjasquirrel as a former Penn State student, I was very confused, thinking this was supposed to be Penn State University! Portland state . . . ok
Music started at :12
:12 is wrong, never release a video again with that mistake. The music needs to start by :04 to have any serious impact.
Your only mistake was taking too long to sing in this video, music needs to start 4 seconds in max.
PAULA SCANLAN ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!
RILEY GAINES ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!
