Long after we along with the princes, presidents, billionaires, influencers and sport stars of today have become mere footnotes to history this music will still be moving people to tears. It is a comforting thought.

The "squawk" at 4:10 is so terribly unfortunate, and disturbs the sanctity of this otherwise noble performance.

It is music from heaven!

[@tonyg6302]

Absolutely and so gorgeous

The ability of a cello to make a grown man cry is in this performance.

[@tonyg6302]

Hi Steve, It is an amazing piece. I had tears as I filmed this as I am a musician myself along with my father and this was one of his favourite performances before he passed.

@@tonyg6302 This piece, particularly Benedictus, motivated me to volunteer work here in Richmond , Virginia. I spent almost two weeks silently mourning in my kitchen as Ukraine was on the verge of being attacked. It’s a long story but it lead to me being able to sponsor a Ukrainian family. Today I played some of this piece on my very warm hike. Thank you for this beautiful video!

Put Religeon aside , This is just glorious music and I don't believe anyone will disagree !

I'm from the United States of America 🇺🇲. I enjoy Jazz 🎼. Malaki B is a child. A blessed child with a gift. England sharing its beautiful peaceful music to the world. And now I'm listening to opera. I don't understand what happened. But with a 🍷 I'm enjoying every second of it. 🇺🇲🇬🇧 ❤️ 💗 💓

Absolutely to tears moving musical piece of art. Should be played above the fighting troopers heads around the would.

This song makes me feel so relaxed, yet energetically triumphant at the same time.
