Esmerine "Spiegel im Spiegel" (Arvo Pärt) -- For Lhasa's Birthday

[@silvanussum5188]

Listening to children playing and laughing makes this song just perfect, since this notes speak of pureness and innocence...

[@circolonauticotorres5008]

if every child in the world would ever have birthdays like this everything would be better

[@Maranatha14]

Arvo would buy this recording!

[@SolveEtCoagula93]

There will come a day, for all of us, when our thoughts, our ideas, our opinions and our words will cease. When that time occurs Truth will arise. This music prepares us for such an event. To those who look backwards and say, ‘If only . . . . . ‘, I say, look forwards and be ready.

[@Paul-t8h]

Has to be the very best version that will ever exist to me it comes ❤️ back to me at moments that mean the most like today I was driving back from the lake district I was on kayaking/ hiking mission and just as I'm lost in the beautiful lake district ❤️ I'm lost in the peice of eternally ever lasting moments that now exist in thy very mind heart and soul.💝💯🙏 magical ❤

[@wakingtheworld]

Exquisite.... What an unusual combination of instruments for this piece. How blessed was Lhasa to have this played at her birthday.... I love how the scene was faded out towards the end & superimposed with the surrounding countryside.... like a memory in the mists of time....

[@sebastienhaton-lalanguetap1365]

The place I am right now... thinking of Lhasa every day, finding strength through her songs and person. Thank you Esmerine.

[@jazznam]

It's so beautiful. It's so peaceful. My heart grows into silence.

Es la versión más bella que he escuchado y visto de esta composición. Jamás la complicidad de las notas entre los ejecutantes, el escenario magnífico de la campiña francesa en verano, los niños, las personas en segundo plano y el camarógrafo, habían creado una obra así de sencilla y de impactante. Creo que han logrado transmitirnos un aspecto esencial del sentido de la existencia: la convivencia, la fraternidad, la comunión, la armonía. a través del arte. Me recuerda un poco la profundidad y el sentido de la autenticidad que tienen algunos films rusos de la época soviética, en particular de Tarkowsky. Esta versión de Arvo Pärt transpira amor e intensidad con un máximo de sencillez y de belleza. Me sacó las lágrimas. Je vous félicite, amis, c'est un de plus forts moments du point de vu émotionnel que j'ai connu depuis long temps, et un de plus beaux videos en KZbin. Merci de tout mon coeur.

[@margaretadamek753]

Because we love you. I still missed you my wonderful girl

[@soobadooba]

One of my favourites pieces & I adore this version. This version is so gently tranquil, delicate, real & beautiful

[@valerieholland-bennett5282]

I could listen to this all day long

[@NightSky777]

so lovely, and the children in the background make it seem so natural

[@lobosilvercoat]

I discovered this on my daughter’s 32nd. Birthday. Beautifully moving.

[@asdaysas]

[@Loogang7718]

Bro casually dropped the HARDEST bars

[@kommentiererin1792]

This is the most calming piece I've ever listened to

[@galaas6940]

Чудесное видео и музыка - прекрасное звучание! Раньше слышала,только на фортепиано.

[@Safar-v5m]

Dry special…many thanks 🙏👣🙏

[@hoppycalif]

Wow! This may be the most beautiful, moving performance of this piece I have ever experienced. So simple, and yet so moving.

[@leclercsyl]

Interprétation très intéressante! Merci!

[@valerieholland-bennett5282]

You cannot beat this one!

[@Pau1fc]

I don't know if I would have been any different but oh to have had a childhood like this to look back on, makes me cry every time I watch it.

[@deenibeeniable]

As Tom Wolfe says: "It's never too late to have a happy childhood."

[@hulkh3489]

I agree, so beautiful. So fkn beautiful!

[@GigglesClifton9]

This could be my favourite youtube video ever

[@rogersandelin5615]

Then you haven't seen very many in the infinite sphere of a heart beat.

[@Cadejo2]

Happy birthday Lhasa! Thank´s for this beautiful video and music...

[@MichaelSmith-jw7dn]

Simply beautiful music and setting!! hello from covid 2020 england hope everybody is well. Peace x

[@muldoonwestmoreland2115]

Love this, had this played at my gran's funeral and will have it at mine

[@liiliacorradi5313]

Moving, inspiring, meditative, therapeutic! A glorious version of this Arvo Pärt composition and beautiful hommage to unforgettable Lhasa!

[@dhammarosi]

Well put 🥰

[@sherlynong8167]

i am amazed by how consistent and sustained the bowed marimba is... super impressive

[@SilverWrinkly]

This is the best version I have heard. Thank you all.

[@suegha]

At first I wasn't sure about this - and then the natural nature of it and the different approach to this great piece, the children playing the wonderful setting, well, it's simply magical! Well done!

[@suegha]

I returned to this because it came up in a play list. I hadn't listened to it in ages. I'm still loving it!

[@fjfaase]

Simply magical.

[@mieczyslawgorkiewicz931]

It helps my kids to fall asleep. GREAT music. Pomaga moim dziecią zasnąć. Wspaniła muzyka.

[@jenniferalexander5423]

At the end the little girl whispers "It's for you" and hands the harpist a flower.

[@jeffboo755]

I find comfort and a mental sanctuary from all the senseless fear and hatred unleashed by the attacks in Paris in this presentation of Mirror in a Mirror. It seems to define humanity and our longing to seek peace. It raises the question of why we hate and fear, when we are all in this together. It is recognizing we are all one and healing from the pain and suffering of our existence. It is us rather than me. Extending that hand of assistance and empathy and remembering to see the face of humanity when we look into the face of a baby/young child.

[@lailopirveli5272]

Merci pour ce magnifique moment!

[@geokramer1711]

This is so beautiful and just hearing the play of children in the background just, thank you so much

[@sitlasoj]

endless poetry

[@musicforturbulenttimes]

incredibly beautiful!

[@johkiri]

Oh this cute disinterest of those children - so pure - so honest. Notice they "children" do not need to esacpe into music -- they have their own world. They do not need to feel the music, to feel better - they are happy as they are. I feel Sweet envy....

[@floyddango]

One magical and peaceful moment.

[@farmersmith7057]

Wow!

[@creativeplanetjanet]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful intimate moment in time. I'm sure it has brought joy to many others. This is way beyond "like" or "subscribe." This is beyond words. Oh my...

[@mmewhopi]

just so peaceful a world makes sense

[@donrocin]

Bravo! Wonderful perspective of a composition I love. I thought he child walking along the wall said more about the essence of this piece than anything I've ever read about it.

[@TheCeline07]

It'''s my playger, 0

[@coderf]

Wasn't to sure if I'd like this version but with the way it is shot with the single hand held camera and the kids playing and laughing in the background, it just draws you in. Well done and very well played in this slightly alternative version.

[@FrankBrescher123]

clearly something between haunting and infinity.

[@alicat7281]

Perfect. No more needs to be said.

[@erick-gd7wo]

just perfect... just perfect...

[@alanf97]

I wish Lhasa is well and healthy right now.

[@Stelios-g9i]

What the world could be without music ? Music like this one ?

[@gersonarcanjo7403]

Listening to this is like a wonderful memory that we have no more 😢😢 so touching!

[@gramtec]

the cello and the harp are really complimenting each other in this master piece tune rather than the cello/piano combo. a Great treat.

[@marcvandermeiren2754]

Je n'ai jamais entendu quelque chose de plus belle. Ils ont mis leur coeur dedans. I've never heard something more beautiful. Their heart they're putting into this magical music

[@staceygrove7295]

So beautiful and in such a beautiful setting. Thanks.

[@patrickharte9181]

Magnificent...sunbeams on hot sand, cool with that warm afterglow.

[@haithamsherby7134]

beautiful performance, one of my favorite versions of Pärt's Spiegel im Spiegel. Thanks for sharing this beautiful video.

[@SonicVineyard]

[@valerieholland-bennett5282]

It is just beautiful, it is as simple as that!!

[@marie-francoisehoareau8199]

Un vrai moment de paix profonde, merci

[@sandramajor6294]

Brilliant harmonic symphony...thank you! :)

[@michel-jeantailleur]

This was a tribute to the singer Lhasa de Sela who died in 2010. She had one of the most beautiful voices of recent times. Listen to The Living Road album especially.

[@marguerite4595]

Gone to soon...😢

[@DiscoFishTaco]

scene: Arvo and Nora holding hands, Nora's gaze fixed on Arvo, drowned in adoration, as he watches a rustic rendition of a simple song he once dreamed. Nora sees the moment, the very moment, when, with his single tear Arno realizes in the whispers of the children's laughter that he will live forever. Nora smiles.

[@OscarGraumusico]

Maravillosa versión, muy natural, muy humana!!! gracias

[@SonicVineyard]

beautiful arrangement.....so glad i found it

[@michael-davidarrkerns4799]

Exquisite-& heartbreaking. Thank you.

[@hayrettinsoyer5906]

[@LeeAnne0901]

[@umbertopiccone4865]

una delle versioni più suggestive , molto rallentata del celebre brano di Arvo Part, l'arpa ha un ruolo importante e non fa affatto rimpiangere il pianoforte
