Absolutely beautiful. Great to listen to on the day that Queen Elizabeth celebrates her Platinum Jubilee. Thank you.

[@chuckcartwright1328]

Ladies, that was absolutely lovely. I daily remember living in England in the late 1950’s, and this song almost always comes to mind, the orchestral arrangement. From now on, it will be yours that I hear. Thank you and bless you all.

[@factstrumpprejudice6740]

Beautiful Ronald Binge music with poet Christopher Hassall haunting words sung masterfully ... I cried tears of joy. Wonder ladies, thank you so much.

[@MrCarlSykes]

Simple beauty is a rare thing. Many thanks ladies, many thanks

Thank you, Carl!

[@alanmccormick2805]

Truly uplifting in these difficult times.

[@carolcharmaineedson110]

It evokes wonderful memories of my schooldays with the choir at St Augustine, more than 45 years ago!

[@MrCarlSykes]

I first experienced your performance a year ago. Every time I have viewed it, I am more appreciative of what an awesome creation it is. The synergy of a system is valued when the output is greater then merely the sum of the parts.The incredible harmony you ladies produce so fulfills this simple truth. You ladies are truly awesome and you so shine. The world needs your beauty and your magic. Please keep on shining.... with love and respect... Carl

[@NkhosephayoNgwenya3334]

Just the way I like it

[@leelinden8107]

Bravissimi tutti! And for me, you did it at just the right pace. Thanks! Too many versions sound to me like either they're worried about catching the last bus home or they need to go to the "smallest room" PDQ. I'd only heard the German lyrics, (Hör mein Lied Elisabeth), before, so I had to look up Christopher Hassall 's English lyrics. Wow, he had to do a few metrical and rhythmical backflips to make it fit the (seemingly) simple tune and be singable. So, bravi again, ladies, for pulling it off so gracefully.

[@bo-kyungmoon-kohn4851]

Zauberhafte

[@mariaemico]

Maravilhoso, lindo

[@dovanirfadoni2385]

Simplesmente maravilhoso.

[@corochick100]

Lovely! Can you tell me whose arrangement it is please?

[@LaNovaSingers]

Hi, I've just checked and according to the sheet music, this two-part arrangement is by the composer himself. I'll add that to the video description. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you!

[@oguguaemereuwaonu2031]

Lyrics

[@heinzschwarz3589]

😅 schöne

[@davidalexander2607]

The best vocal version is by The Black Dyke Mills Band .

[@LaNovaSingers]

Thanks for the recommendation, we'll be sure to give that a listen! The brass instruments must make for a lovely accompaniment.
