Seriously the best choral version of this I've ever heard. The audio quality is awesome. It's just a shame not more seats were filled to see this live. D:

[@dorisdaumann5914]

I guess this had been outside the normal service - they might have just taken the audio ... I belong to a free church in Germany myself and on Sundays there are plenty plenty of people - so the audio isn't that clear than ... 😉

[@Charmeleon64letsplayer]

I want to dedicate this beautiful and well-performed cover of Into the West to my godfather. May God bless him and may he rest in peace.

[@dominicrincker8280]

I just sang this song with the freshman choir at my school as a graduating senior. A really hard song to sing while you’re saying goodbye. I hope next year is better for them.

[@firatdvm]

Excellent work. Valinor is our heaven.

[@jonmv]

Dear God!! amazing!!

[@lewingapuhi5368]

I've never heard a group sing this song, so beautiful to listen to

[@stevebiddulph8005]

I really loved this version, and have sent it far and wide in Australia. We sang this at my father in law's funeral, and wept as we did. Annie Lennox would really love that you sang it too. Thankyou to you wonderful Canadians!!

[@MrPie]

Humbly performed, you capture the essence of this song. Wonderful to hear.

[@MilhouseDaunt]

How has this cover not gotten more hits

[@reencollett6835]

Wonderful performance! Thank you. Came on this by accident, although Howard Shore's music, and LOTR, are continuing favourites with me...Funny how they never grow old...

[@joannatam6567]

One of the most beautiful chorale on this song..

[@belisauros370]

The Gentlemen were a little sleepy when they first came in but this was truly excellent!

[@dorisdaumann5914]

Wonderful , great harmonies , chrystal clear !! 🌹God bless you - we will sing this song in Heaven !!

[@DavidJMusic90]

I remember doing this in high school, such a beautiful arrangement.

[@galgacus832]

I keep coming back to this one. It’s in my top 3 favorite versions of this song. Nicely done.

[@kkkkristen100]

NGL, I cry every time I watch this because it's so beautiful. =)

[@Encephalitisify]

This is the best sounding one yet. Even better than the choir on the soundtrack.

[@maireadmccaughan5330]

Beautiful, lovely harmony arrangement. Well done. This is the first Ive heard it performed chorally.

[@candicefrost4561]

Beautiful. Very angelic and melodious. The guitar was very soothing. You guys did really well! Keep it up, all of you!

[@Antphoneigh]

Doesn't matter - thanks to the Internet the whole world could witness this masterpiece!

[@thealexissutton7684]

My highschool is going this song and we have three guys but it still sounds good. This is amazing.

No it isn't.

[@KCGT48]

​@jamesrae5351 why would you say that?

[@MrSMD2011]

In my choir, we have to sing this at funerals. I lost my manhood to this song.

Perfect song !!!

[@masonr.powers7196]

Gods the music is strong

[@nealwang2506]

Excellent!

[@MrRumpwrestler]

One of the best choruses here on youtube.... check out the other young choruses doing "into the west' and you'll see how much stronger this one is! Pity that there are more kids singing than people in the public.

[@pancakemania1]

thankyou

[@aquaxhydreusizereth1205]

Epic! Very nice!

[@GITSVermeer]

Very nice!

[@wayner396]

loved it :-)

[@SFUChoirOnGoogle]

It should be available at your local music store - if they don't have it they can order it for you!

[@KingKrakenSports]

actually doing this at my school

[@AnneMichelleYuen]

Parfait

[@Formbi1988]

Magneficent

[@alrowe06]

OMG OMG OMG THIS WAY Epic!

[@DifferentBreed21]

Hoooooly shit. Beautiful

[@jjanimecloud]

great work, i love it so much!!! it's even better that it's in church, 'cause Tolkien work was very similar to what christians believe in

[@yenee94]

nice :)

[@samuelvarnier6156]

I love it. Where can I find the sheet music?

[@LordArkis]

Hello SFUChoir. My choir wants to cover your version of this song. Could u send me your sheet music for this one? You will be credited for that of course etc

[@JorgCAlexander]

SATB though for a decent chunk of the song the T & B are in unison

[@baruta07]

Great music, would it have killed you to run it through an noise removal filter though. I know it's supposed to appear as it was sung in the room but there is a ton of white noise from the background that just mucks up some of the best harmonies.

[@linty90]

I see you Ben! LOL

[@pancakemania1]

sheet music?

[@Antphoneigh]

:)

[@brianarchdekin1447]

Luniw! Not Luno Dx

[@Fiyeroification]

I like it, but it seems very rigid and soul-less for such a beautiful song. Very technically good, but slightly Eisteddfod-y

[@whatdidyousay1578]

dear GOD this song is awesome

[@Smacks41]

Excellent!
