Blow, Blow, Thou Winter Wind

[@MommeeMadre1]

this song takes me back to 1980..... High School Choir - the bell would ring and we would continue singing through the halls ... I'm 54(!) now, but as I sing it seems like yesterday :-)

[@OfficialSparklyPig]

Anybody here other than because they sang it in choir? That's why I'm here, and all the other comments seem to say the same.

[@delioalderete1148]

[@interestingthings6409]

I sang this in a Elizabethan Madrigal feast performance with a choir, and it’s just the most beautiful thing ever

[@adityagupta-mf9dt]

Read this as part of English Literature in 10th grade in 1997.. 22 years later I still remember it.. such is the writing of Shakespeare.

[@djsilva95HumanNatureBeauty]

Watched, Liked, Subscribed. Beautiful music and cute, nice scenery!🙂🙂

[@batavicus]

Fantastic performance! The treble voices' unison is as good as it gets--pitch perfect and everyone singing the same vowel. My first Ritter was the Gloria at Colorado All-State choir in 1981. I've been in love with Ritter's music ever since.

[@republimom]

Do you perhaps mean Rutter?

[@wolfgirl3758]

I did this song with my choir and I personally think it's so beautiful that I literally cried every time I sang it!😂

[@Phanthom32]

This was the first song we did when I joined my high school choir *gasp* 24 years ago, have always loved it since and this is a wonderful rendition

[@yvonneschaleger9445]

How could anyone ever give this a thumbs down?! It's a beautifully played and well sung piece. It deserves every bit of respect it can get. People worked extremely hard to make this. It's fantastic.

[@RedT...TheOriginal.NotANumber]

Haters gonna hate. Maybe they're bitter about the goosebumps they got?

[@Redwan777]

Ironic isn't it? The song is about how the winter wind isn't as harsh and cruel as the ingratitude of mankind. They just proved it.

[@welovehugs1037]

beautiful version of a beautiful song. words of Shakespeare are special.

[@katherineozawa3035]

I did this song with my school's show choir for our winter concert and for festival and we did awesome on it!

[@TheDireAlbatross]

Katherine Ozawa Same here. :)

[@damioncaraballo4384]

Same here :) Was truly one of my favorites

[@kimlandicho269]

That's so nice hear!

[@simon_nickle]

I'm doing this song with my school choir. Wish me luck!

[@MegaButterflyKisses5]

I did it back in 2006, good luck!

[@caitevoir]

+Simon Nilges We are doing it for our winter concert this year.

[@mohammedadil6181]

I wonder how it was? :))

[@cjchaffins3299]

same bro

[@takeeto9894]

I'm learning it now

[@itsamemario7762]

I’ll be singing this for my first solo and I’m so excited

[@lucambacamba9132]

How was it?

[@dragonsfireicegaming]

I'm curious too!

[@Soosakakc0]

How'd it go

[@tamzidsheakhsani9019]

Hey tell us how'd it go?

[@eyesonbangladesh7037]

The key theme of this song is in humanity & ingratitude of Human being in their relationship.

[@jamesness2277]

I miss my choir days. I performed this piece with an honor choir in my senior year. I've loved it ever since.

[@sarahkelhemisy3636]

It is one of the best pieces of music I have studied in my life.

[@robosv634]

Absolutely gorgeous rendition of this piece! I love it so much when it's done by a quartet.

[@jihanjoo]

Such hauntingly beautiful song.

[@sajidmahmud2358]

[@merripen57]

I've loved this piece for years, ever since I sang it in college choir. I've always heard it as a choral piece, until now. It feels even more wistful as a quartet, more personal ... wonderfully done. Thank you.

[@beverley7069]

Thank you for your kind words.

[@patcook1889]

Beautiful, Thank you John Rutter!

[@curtisburga943]

My choir did this over 30 years ago in school. It just popped into my head today. Our arrangement was much simpler, and didn't sound nearly this good.

[@er.sushilprakashe.erajauli5460]

have always loved this song since my childhood

[@gidget121972]

One of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever sung

[@tanvirhasan9161]

it's beautiful and very calming

[@nazneenkhan9702]

Best song ever this is my favourite 💞💞💞

[@AbdulHakim-yb1mu]

I love this song.

[@NightNinja540]

I looked this song up since I used to listen to the orchestral version all the time in high school. I never even knew there were lyrics. This is amazing.

[@dipikaojha3468]

i am love this song it is sooooooooo smooth and make my mind just relaxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[@shohidullahaquebokhary]

Truly speaking. ... More. .....more......jolly

[@mamunsarker1520]

It's in our syllebus as a poem :)

[@brendahawley447]

Beautiful. Seems so sad

[@jamesmariani984]

Our church is performing this and the music director is playing piano as part of a string quartet (he has arranged the strings). We hired 4 fabulous singers from the University, so as church chorister, I get to direct. Only one problem - I'm not a trained director. Wish me luck.

[@MrFunnyHandsInYourPants]

James Mariani good luck I know you can do it!

[@martinageisler4591]

Ein sehr schönes Winterlied!!!!

[@مريمالزيودي-ج1ج]

love these poem

[@GroowWithMe]

Blow, blow, thou winter wind,Thou art not so unkindAs man's ingratitude ;Thy tooth is not so keen,Because thou art not seen,Although thy breath be rude.Heigh-ho! sing heigh-ho! unto the green holly:Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:Then heigh-ho, the holly!This life is most jolly.Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky,That dost not bite so nighAs benefits forgot:Though thou the waters warp,Thy sting is not so sharpAs friend remembered not.High-ho! sing heigh-ho! unto the green holly... (Deep meanings inside 💜)

[@farhintabassum5225]

Loved it ❤

[@satomir7326]

LOVE THIS!

[@bcgrote]

And other things ending in "-olly"... My favorite version! Well, it IS Rutter.

[@CrackedPotts]

So beautiful

[@CrackedPotts]

My absolute favorite.

[@acfanboy1997]

I'll be doing this song with my advanced choir class next month! Wish me luck!

[@wayneswitzer3890]

Holy crap, awesome!

[@cupani10]

So..... beautiful!

[@mouditaufik2276]

this is so incredibly soothing

[@takeeto9894]

It's about friends and loved ones betraying you.

[@TheKrisMaster4]

My god...this is such a beautiful piece of music....and I can't wait to sing it well! :3

[@mostafaosman6831]

very nice poem i love it :D

[@jacobblair4902]

Beautiful version!

[@AnimeSkittlez]

We're trying to learn this song in my Mixed Chorus class. My teacher thinks it might be too hard for us. Hope he changes his mind, because I've had fun so far learning the soprano part.

[@takeeto9894]

Last year in normal Choir my director scrapped this cause everyone sucked. This year, in select Choir, we're learning it and it's only been 2 days and we already p good.

[@LezerniWolf]

The lead/highest part is for the weak. Sing the Alto or Tenor part of any Eric Whitacre song and only then you'll feel the true pain of Glow and Fly to Paradise. Also Hymn of Axciom. *winky face*

[@masumbillah8692]

Blow, blow, thou winter wind, Thou art not so unkind As man’s ingratitude; Thy tooth is not so keen, Because thou art not seen, Although thy breath be rude. Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly: Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly: Then, heigh-ho, the holly! This life is most jolly. Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky, That dost not bite so nigh As benefits forgot: Though thou the waters warp, Thy sting is not so sharp As friend remembered not.
