Sang this in high school, 1978. Then again in a community choir in 1985. It is hauntingly beautiful, lively, mystical and glorious! Masterfully done!!

[@cofeebeing]

Thank you for this superb concert.. The world needs you today. The world needs Bach today. Great antidote to ugliness.

marty Dogwood ¡Me encanta tu forma de pensar! ¿Te imaginas que la sociedad entera viviera día a día sobre espléndida belleza?

[@anonymusum]

Marty, true - but those who should listen simply do not. Look at the thumbs down numbers. By the way - Trump decreased the budget for culture drastically. Over here in Germany our far right wingers wrote that they wanted to control those filthy left winged artists. It´s always the same ....

you are so right Bach is eternel we are lucky to understand him and feel joy

[@gtnsteve1]

Had I been in that audience I'd have been saying (screaming) "BRAVI" at the end of the performance. Just wonderful, and congratulations to Matthias Beckert for a great production of this compact but excellent piece. As a veteran of 50+ years of choral singing, I congratulate you and your excellent chorus and soli.

[@reybarreto7979]

To my ears this music sounds like surges of pure joy. It's just wave after wave of spiritual pleasure.

[@jfsmed]

I wake up disoriented, with all kinds of energy and no where to go with it. Then I listen to the lofty music and earthy subject of the Magnificat- ahhh- now i have a trajectory for a new day

[@1jesus2music3duke]

I’ve read many classic works of fiction and seen many great paintings. I’ve heard and performed Mozart and Beethoven and Wagner and other great composers. But in all my travels around The World of Great Art, I have a single conclusion: Bach is the greatest artist who has ever lived, and he even makes other geniuses look amateurish.

[@brinsford1]

Each of the composers have something special.which.Bach csnnot present.even though.he is the greatest.overall

[@maggiezhao9056]

everyone is a great artist

[@russedav5]

@@maggiezhao9056 Ridiculous, for then no one is, great having thereby lost its meaning.

[@Ludwig1625]

Though he has one flaw, melody. This is where Bach is pretty mediocre, he really only shines where he has some harmony and counterpoint going on. Even then, he's too logical, too cerebral

[@TheStockwell]

@@maggiezhao9056 No. Some people are embarrassing hacks. True!

[@salmonmhb]

It just occurred to me this morning that I hadn't listened to Bach's Magnificat for a while. So I found your video; I listened and watched and was blessed. Thank you.

[@graemehelliwell]

We're singing this tomorrow night and I can't wait. It's a great, compact little work with a huge demand on the choir. I'm so pleased this choir remembered to put the joy into the work, given that it's in minor with a celebratory text. Very hard to pull off.

[@ayliea3974]

We sang this two times ago. I treasure the memory now more than ever.

[@hoyesotrodiap]

Not so hard!

[@HelenaWilliams8696]

MAGNIFICAT is pure beauty in vocal expression and musical composition. Enthralling rendition!

[@terryserres8342]

This isn't the slickest Magnificat out there, but is so gloriously MUSICAL. There is something genuine and thoroughly engaged about this performance. At times the chorus seems to dancing with the rhythms. Definitely among the top performances that I have ever heard. As others have remarked, the bassist is a rock star.

[@edithjwilliams8825]

Joyful

[@ajrob77]

Indeed! 😂❤

[@jonathanzabel7488]

I've practically memorized the entire composition. This is by far my favorite rendition. I return to it again and again. Bravo and thank - you so much for sharing this wonderful performance.

[@lucyfisher8347]

I HAVE memorised it...

[@benedictcowell6547]

I always find Bach so compelling that I suspend disbelf.. Most liturgical music does this to me but Bach especially. His music seems to plumb the mystery of Christanity with such conviction that one is obliged to share his faith. And this choir has prompted one to share Bach's faith and theirs. That is the splendour of music. It transcends internaland external boundaries

[@dukestravels1861]

Well stated.

[@kimbatteau1]

Always a joy and an inspiration! Thank you, J.S. Bach!

[@maryamberson9912]

My spirit is rejoicing in the Lord as I hear this glorious and stunningly gorgeous rendition of J.S. Bach's Magnificat.

a very beautiful piece by a special composer. Bach and other artists changed the way I look at the world forever. Thank you, Bach.

[@rosslewchuk9286]

Wonderful rendition, perfect acoustics, and excellently recorded! It has a subtle warm and joyful feeling all around. A treasure!

[@MyTimeOutt]

Yes, to re-experience the joy of singing this, just makes me weep. I was able to have this twice in my musical avocation & doing this was certainly one of the high points of my life.

[@mhastenreiter6291]

And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name. And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation. He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree. He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away. He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy; as he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever. Lucas 1:46-55

[@wlgordon]

Thanks for posting. I fell in love with this piece 50 years ago from an LP on the Nonesuch label, Karl Ristenpart conducting I believe.

[@caltamino]

Ah Those Trumpets are glorious -- The opening movement of Bach's Magnificat is stirring. I love every bit of Bach's Magnificat, but the Opening is my favorite

[@musiqueclassique8266]

Bravo for this sublime interpretation of such a magnificence!

[@falfield]

Wonderful - simply wonderful. And the movement of the bassist illustrates, in an un-showy way, what a master of rhythm & syncopation Bach was. Before it was 'invented' by jazz.

[@youngchoi18]

Quia respexit - 전곡을 그냥 지나치며 들었었는데 콘트라베이스와 오보에만 배경으로 소프라노 솔로 노래하는것을 보고 색다른 신선함이랄까 그런걸 느낍니다. 특히 저 콘트라베이스 음이 지속적으로 바쳐주는 모습이 인상적이네요. 신이 있든 없든, 기독교가 서양종교이건 말건 상관없이 바하가 경외감으로 작곡한 이곡을 우리가 이렇듯 전 지구에서 듣게 된것은 정말 좋은일입니다. 일하고 공부하고 돈벌어 먹고 살고 지내는게 다 가 아닌 우리 인류가 계속해서 이 작은 행성에서 행복하게 잘 살길 바랍니다.

[@kiomori]

I sang this back in high school, and even years after I find myself singing parts of it without thinking. Such a beautiful piece, and great performance!

[@jeanraphael6935]

In most of Bach work there's a part of reverie,of dreams that tranport us to a sort of refuge where we can lie down in sweet somnolence. Let the rythims surround us and continously being bathed by this melody. On our way to a joyful encounter for we seem to be enveloped by something indescribable but with a smile on our face.Bach will always be remembered as a revered melodist.

[@daryjohnmizelle]

Great performance!! The film should show the oboe d'amore player. What a gorgeous sound!!!

[@geoffstemen3652]

Perhaps the best last chord I’ve heard on any recording! Perfect ritardando & love how the f# pops

[@babblingmongoose]

There is a charming artlessness to this performance; of course they are well-rehearsed and clearly everyone involved is talented, I don't mean to give them a backhanded compliment! I just mean that there is this irrepressible ENERGY in this performance, the feeling that everyone there is so delighted and honored to be there and getting to express this gorgeous music, and it overrides any technical complaint (and there are not many!) anyone could have. If they were to listen to this performance with an open heart, it wouldn't matter how much or how little musical experience the listener had - they would be swept away on the same wave of sincere musical joy regardless! I have rarely been so moved by a performance - bravissimo!!!

[@garylawson5381]

Bravo!!! I can only imagine how magnificent the live performance was.

[@gerardbegni2806]

The rather small instrumental formation allows a propoer balance between the instruments and the voices, soloists or chora. This "Magnificat" is a masterwork of rendition and recording !!!!!

Double bass player having the time of his life :)

[@richardtharris]

The bassist is playing in the Baroque style with a convex bow. The bows of the 17th century were convex, instead of the concave style presently employed. This style and bow has you holding the bow more toward the center of gravity, instead of grasping the frog. He also does not seem to be adhering to the commonly used Simandl technique. Please do not take my comments as derogatory, as to me this presentation is wonderful. Just commenting on the bass, and what is different about it.

[@ryano.5149]

Can you blame him? This piece is a jam!

[@richardallen1924]

What a superb performance; I was particularly impressed by the respect of the audience in allowing the music to end and have its reflective moment before the applause. I performed this (as a treble I think) at school some 50 years ago, and in a grand clear out of study books found my old score so had to find it and re-experience its joys. . . . The score stays in my study! Again, thank you.

[@Ghdefg]

The music was written to flow from one piece into the next without anything interrupting it. Like scenes in a movie nowadays, it is one singular performance that sticks together. Its just a stylistic difference between older musical concerts and a modern musical concert where every piece is an independent single. I hope that helps and didn't come off as snobby lol

[@Galastel]

It's interesting what you say. Do you know when they started applauding after every part? I know that in Beethoven's time, one applauded after every part of the concerto, and the audience could even demand an encore of one of the parts of the concerto before proceeding to the next one. Wagner, I think, was the one who stomped it down hard, so for a while one only applauded at the end of a concerto, and now the applause in the middle is re-emerging.
