Mozart Gran Misa en do menor - 1. Kyrie (Bernstein)

[@samdajellybeenie14]

This is the most beautiful thing that I have ever heard. Especially when the singer is completely alone. I cry every time I listen to this. Hard to believe that a mortal could create such beautiful music. I almost can't believe it myself. The soprano is something that could only have been created by God himself. Thank you Mozart - I don't know where we would be without you.

God what a double sadness Arlene Auger, and Maestro Bernstein conducting this already stricken with cancer, Two of the most beautiful musicians ever to walk the earth the like never to be seen again R.I.P.

[@cvonbarron]

Of all of Mozart's works this one every single time raises the hackles of my spine, makes my hair stand on end and fill my eyes with tears. EVERY SINGLE TIME. This opening Kyrie is in my opinion the greatest single piece of music in any medium. It will never be surpassed.

[@JeraldMYates]

Bliss. That is immortality. 😊❤️‍🔥

[@rodrigoantoniosilva7]

In my opinion this solo of soprano is the most beautiful ever written, I cry every time I listen to it!

[@kennethmissel]

Mozart truly had a direct telephone line to God the father. This is the music I expect to hear when I enter heaven.

[@brunofaustino5470]

Not really, despite all of his art, he died in the most bad conditions you can imagine, common grave etc... Not respectful, not matching with his creative genius. Mozart "the great".

It is a bit sad that i will never be able to thank Milos Forman and my dad enough for introducing me to this heavenly masterpiece. I've been delighted by it for over a decade now and not a single time has it failed to enthrall me into the realm of the sublime.

[@SlightReturn666]

The piece has been performed by many very well indeed. But this right here is the definitive iconic reference performance of Kyrie/K427. Immutable; unspeakable; immortal.

[@jonlebono2147]

At the time of this recording, Arleen Auger was undergoing chemotherapy for a brain tumor and passed away shortly afterwards. This has to be the best version of the Kyrie ever recorded . Truly inspiring.

[@JohnS0603]

Didn't know that... thanks for posting it.

Not at the time of this recording. She was diagnosed with brain cancer in February 1992. This was 1990.

Sometimes, we get a glimpse of Heaven - as this performance by Mozart, Bernstein & Arlen Auger. They still live and reminds us how great God is. Heavenly!

[@katmatally]

Mozart here wrote such a beautiful, soaring melody for the [mezzo] soprano voice - it does everything to highlight the unique beauty of the human voice and how it can touch the eternal. Mozart in music was an angel incarnate.

[@SlightReturn666]

The only slight slight slight criticism I would have offered LB here is that the tempo is dragging a little. This piece catches air when it's maybe 5% faster. It just sounds a tiny bit ponderous when done this slowly.

When listening to this work by Mozart, one is able to feel the endless possibilities of the human race! Perfection in the soloists……bravo, brava!!👏💐

[@cvonbarron]

I agree of all his compositions this one fills my eyes with tears every single time. This Kyrie in my opinion will never be matched my anyone ever. Period. My favorite of all his works.

[@cvonbarron]

Mozart wrote this for his wedding. His bride Constanze sang the solo at the premiere. So it is no surprise that this is his single greatest composition. The opening showcases the greatest instrument of all. the human voice.

[@danhalo300]

[@songbirdwatcher]

She is absolutely perfect for this MOST incredible piece of music! K427 is one of the world's most transporting, inspired masterpieces and this opening section may be its pinnacle. Bernstein's tempo seemed a little on the slow side at first, rather heavy-handed, but Auger filled every moment with her full lyric sound, yet with that incredible detailed filigree. I'll sleep in peace tonight!

[@loverflicko]

No, esto no es casualidad... no es sólo obra de un genio ¡Cuánta civilización, cuanta sabiduría concentrada en 8 minutos! Sólo 2.000 años de cultura grecorromana, pasando por otros 2.000 años de cultura occidental, pueden llevar a esto... Kyrie eleison... ¡Señor, ten piedad!

A música vinda diretamente do céu.

[@rafaelpazminoboza]

A little explanation to understand better such a great composition: Kyrie Eleison are Greek words for "Lord have mercy upon us". In the Catholic mass these words are said 3 times: one for the Lord Father (the firts Kyrie Eleison), another for the Lord Son (Christe Eleison), and the last one for the Lord Holly Spirit. Note how the music change every time the pray change of Lord. Hope my English had been enough clear for this explanation. GBY all!

4:20-6:00. Probably the most transcendent bars in the history or music? I just cannot comprehend how a human being could possibly write this.

[@Alirothy]

where can i find words to describe the beauty of mozart's work?

[@RodCornholio]

Impossible without using religious terms (and that's coming from me, someone without a faith). Something to think about: by hearing his music (ignoring 440hz tuning), you are experiencing what Mozart heard inside his head (or more than 200 years ago in real life). And here is the kicker...there may never...ever....ever be anyone like him again...ever, as in, until the end of the universe. So, what you're hearing could very well be a piece from the pinnacle of human musical achievement. I mean, this could be, literally, as good as it will ever get. You're very lucky to have heard it and will be filled with a deep sense of gratitude when it hits home.

[@karinwijnberg9680]

There arent any words to describe this....

[@zkool5]

You're obviously completely unfamiliar with the classical repertoire, which contains untold number of masterpieces such that comparisons can only be relegated to the uninspired and/or undignified individuals. E.G. Beethoven Bach Chopin alone wrote plenty of soul-cleansing pieces that you should familiarize yourself with, otherwise you're missing out.

@Jitpring: Anyone with a soul who isn't devoid of human emotion can appreciate this beautiful music. I would, however, point out that only Catholics can transcend an ordinary appreciation of the music and fully embrace the sacredness of both the music and text. It's no accident that the greatest of composers were Roman Catholic. Ad majorem Dei gloriam!

[@aceofspades8634]

What about Bach, Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff, Prokofiev, Korsakov, Handel, Brahms, Elgar, Holst, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Grieg, and all the other non-Catholic composers? There is no denying that these composers were remarkable, if not sheer geniuses.
