Shining Night: A Portrait of Composer Morten Lauridsen- Trailer

[@earlineahonima4867]

I just bought this DVD. I'm glad I did, because I will watch it over and over. Thank you, Mr. Stillwater, for a beautiful, beautifully made documentary. You honored Mr. Lauridsen as he deserves to be honored.

It's amazing that someone today can still work within the tertian/diatonic system and create something really new and meaningful! When we really thought that we had exhausted this system,...now ...someone with immense talent...breathes real life into something that we really knew all along was it!

This movie is a gift that keeps giving. I have watched it too many times to count and it never fails to fill my heart with peace and awe. Thank you.

Veo este vídeo muy a menudo. Desde que descubrí a Morten Lauridsen cuando cantamos una de sus obras, hasta llegar a este vídeo...está claro que sólo alguien incardinado en la naturaleza y el silencio puede componer obras tan bellas y extraordinarias.

A 50$ piano in the hands of a genius gives O Magnum. 👊🏻 he is EXACTLY what universities and young impressionable people need.

Thank you, Charlotte. To spend time with Lauridsen and his music is uplifting to the spirit.

@@MichaelStillwaterof course you know that Vimeo is a poor carrier. Any chance that this can be purchased on KZbin? I would gladly do so today. It seems to me that your choices are limiting the general public’s access to your outstanding documentary, and more importantly the brilliance of Mr Lauridsen. Whether for good or bad, YT continues to (and will continue to with Gen Z) grow as a deliverer of content for news, media, and culture

If he had composed nothing else in his life, except for DIRAIT - ON, he’d still be one of my favorite vocal composers…

My friend is in this movie that is pretty cool right like if agreed 🍄🌸🍄🌸🍄🌸🍄🌸🍄🌸🍄🌸

[@kelsocampbell1301]

OK....he can compose like Mahler or Beethoven in the slow tempi, but does he have anything to offer that is fiery in fast tempi...sort of like the last movement of Beethoven 7 or something really fiery like Richard Strauss "Don Juan" or the last movement of Mahler 1? Now, that's the mark of a composer.

[@janicedarling194]

each has their gifts -- we don't require that the orca flies through the air like a lark, why require that one composer be anything other than who they are? One doesn't require a Dutch master to paint like an Impressionist... Enjoy each one's expression without having to diminish that expression by comparison to another's.
