[@micheal49]

Not enough upvotes in the world for this one!

[@jonathandavies5532]

From a native, Welsh speaking Welshman. Thank you for this most beautiful, meliflous and perfect version of 'Ar Hyd Y Nos' - I could not help but cry out of happiness and 'Hiraeth' - I'll just keep on coming back to this time after time. Thank you. Diolch o'r Galon. Cymru am Byth.

[@Rebecasings]

What heavenly voices...Yo yo was phenomenal as well!!!

[@mybillsgirl]

My grandparents always sang this to me at bedtime. Precious, brought tears to these old eyes.

in the immortal words of John Denver, "music makes pictures and often tells stories, all of it magic and all of it true''

[@christinedureau3467]

Lovely, reflective rendition

[@PeteDawkins-r5s]

Stunning .......

[@5346565]

My father used to sing this to me sixty years ago when I would not settle at night. So nice to find it here.

[@mafarmerga]

If there any more stars on this stage it would be declared a Galaxy.

[@jonmars9559]

Chris Thile has a wonderful voice but when Aoife sings in that pure toned, pitch perfect voice of hers, I get chills. Such a gift.

[@jamestierney2531]

Agreed. And being on stage with the great Yo-yo Ma..no pressure, right?

[@jonmars9559]

@@jamestierney2531 I miss 'Live From Here' and the vast talent that would come together and perform of our enjoyment. There is such talent, skill, artistry and experience on this stage as to boggle the mind and steal away the heart. Yo-yo Ma and Edgar Meyer sitting in and chillin' seems so natural you could almost take it for granted.

[@jamestierney2531]

@@jonmars9559 Thanks for the nice note, Jon. Sometimes the stars align just right and great artists come together to make great music and share it with us. The world CAN be a beautiful place. Cheers to you…JT

[@jillhennessy7512]

I love this beautiful peaceful performance. I especially liked the shots of the discarded pages spread all over the floor. Made it even more realistic.

[@jamesfrangione8448]

It’s not every day one sees that much talent assembled on a single stage. A real thing of beauty and quiet, exquisite excellence.

[@DanielCPurdy]

I have been watching this quite a bit lately. I have loved this lullaby for decades. Done quietly, as a lullaby is meant to be sung, and played.

[@katherinetracey6464]

what a gift Live from Here was. Thank you Chris Thile and all.

[@ShoutaAizawaismyfavorite]

I've been sick and I was thinking back to my orchestra class because I managed to embarrass myself but I never heard this song before that class and their voices are so calming I have so many great things to say about this song and video

[@carlamiller5540]

Beautiful.

[@randalbladel2817]

It is hard to see the video through my tears.

[@irwinseltzer]

Thanks so much for putting this up. I was in the audience and cried. It's one of the most moving arrangements of a song I've heard.

[@susanmarie8526]

Where and when was this performance?

[@Oris37]

Beautifully done. I sang this song as a farewell to my father at his funeral - Ar Hyd Y Nos (I'm Welsh btw)

[@KenCostlow]

I just finished watching a video about the children of Aberfan that were lost in 1966. Hearing this after watching that, I'm laying in bed crying. They were my generation. 😢

[@jamestierney2531]

May your dear father rest in the company of angels. Kind wishes..JT

[@jimmyhoe3529]

Both of them have such incredible voices!

[@johnduffy6546]

That was so calming for my soul...Thank you

[@davidross7541]

My mother and father used to sing this to my brother and I when we were just babes

[@CarlMattick]

Dumbfounded that this has only 8000+/- views and a few scores of likes (as of 4/17) ... brilliant arrangement done by all-world-class performers. Thanks for this PHC.

[@danbillen]

Because sometimes ego overshadows an otherwise beautiful song LOL

[@MsErika1226]

Oh my goodness ❤️ this was so beautiful :) perfection!

[@donaldscott3921]

Watching that wonderful CBC/PBS version of A Child's Christmas in Wales is a Christmas tradition in our circle, too - especially for the Wood-Lopez family, whose son is named Dylan. Many thanks, and Merry Christmas

[@Simon_Said]

What wonderful timing to upload this beautiful, intimate piece. If I loved PHC any more I'd just burst. Happy holidays everyone.

[@Observer285]

I so miss Live From Here. One of the greater losses to covid-19.

[@elizabethboulter7578]

Lovely. We also watch that Dylan Thomas video starring Denholm Elliot every Christmas ("A Child's Christmas in Wales") and the ending scene with the family singing this old Welsh song is beautiful.

[@williamc.hensel130]

If you had Yo-Yo Ma, Dylan Thomas, Edgar Meyer, Aoife O'Donovan, Chris Thile and Alex Hargreaves in your living room, you'd probably want to share in that astounding conclave. I was needing help to make it through this night, so shared it with my Facebook friends...and dropped off peacefully.

[@ngochoang1358]

Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!

[@dondriver8956]

I remember seeing a film featuring Paul Robeson in which he sang a moving rendition. I think it was in the 30's

[@zecraw]

Absolutely beautiful.

[@peterwu8471]

Fantastic

Me, seeing Chris Thile in title: WHOA! Also me: Wait. That is not what I thought he looked like. *starts to get misty, because... Favorite lullaby* Brian: IS THAT YO-YO MA?!?! *Checks title again* Dammit. *full on cries*

I sung this song in 7th grade choir today

The video sound is pretty good, beyond my imagination

Just Beautiful Love PHC

Does anyone bring to a stage a finer assembly of musicians than this show?

[@clemsplace]

Perfect.

[@stephaniedavies9799]

My dad would "sing" this to me in Welsh. He was one Welshman who couldn't sing but I loved that he tried!

[@clemsplace]

@@stephaniedavies9799 I suspect he knew. Makes it even more lovely that that he did. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful memory.

[@rosemariewalsh6182]

I sang this to my children at bedtime

[@Brooke-jd3if]

Does anyone know if there is a studio track that can be purchased for this rendition/group? I haven’t found anything even close. Thanks!

[@TheLincolnmusic]

Ben Wyatt on violin

[@jugglergirl20km]

Does anyone know the lyrics to this version? They are slightly different from some others I've heard.

[@jiyuzanandrewrockwell2676]

Sleep my child and peace attend thee All through the night Guardian angels God will lend thee All through the night Soft the drowsy hours are creeping Hill and vale in slumber sleeping I my loving vigil keeping All through the night Love to thee my thoughts are turning All through the night All for thee my heart is yearning All through the night Though sad fate our lives may sever Parting will not last forever There's a hope that leaves me never All through the night Though I roam a minstrel lonely All through the night My true harp shall praise sing only All through the night Love's young dream alas is over Yet my strains of love will hover Near the presence of my lover All through the night Sleep my child and peace attend thee All through the night Guardian angels God will send thee All through the night Soft the drowsy hours are creeping Hill and vale in slumber sleeping I my loving vigil keeping All through the night

Not a bad rendition but I’ve heard better in the pub in Welsh

If you wanna simply hear the music, skip to chronomark 1:15. The first minute is logorrhea.

[@JRJunior8624]

Yeah I just wanted to hear the song

[@DanielCPurdy]

Remember, this was a radio program with a lot more to it than just music.

Beautiful song, but it would have been better without all the talking.
