Just found this today. I’ve never seen or heard a version with piano accompaniment before. This is a favorite piece of mine.Thanks for posting.

Glad you enjoyed the performance! This piece truly is angelic!

I thought this was an a cappella piece (no piano). Sounds different with piano (even though muted). Or maybe was the piano just added to keep everyone in tune? Sounds like that might be it, since the piano has no really substantial part other than doubling the choral parts. Beautiful rendition, esp with the larger choir and the venue. Probably could have gone a freckle faster overall; but well done.

Thanks! The piano was to help with tuning since most people had learned the song within three days prior to this performance!

@@jamespenver Piano was a brilliant strategy. And it worked. I thought the pace made it even more ethereal.
