The Last Words of David, Randall Thompson

[@JimC]

Every church choir should perform this on the Sunday before every election.

The good. The true. And the beautiful.

May Hong Kong be blessed with the fulfillment of David's vision.

Great storms upon us now but very soon now ...the Son is coming with all the fulfillment for Hong Kong and all people.

May God's grace shine on Hong Kong. Freedom is never free. Beautiful.

I had the pleasure of being able to sing this piece and oh my goodness feeling the rumble of voices in this song together is so amazing.

I love this song. We sang, "The Last Words of David" when I was a member of the Mormon Youth Chorus and Symphony, way back in the 1970's. Oh how we loved this powerful, yet reverent song. This choir and orchestra are perfect, in my heart

This brings me to tears every time.

I was lucky enough to sing in a high school concert choir at Central High School, Phoenix, Arizona in 1966-67. We performed a lot of Randall Thompson compositions but this was one of my fav's. I guess because I was a tenor and we had that held note at the end it made the piece that much more special. I do love this presentation with the orchestra. So well done.

I sang this my sophomore year under conductor Lee Kjelson, Director of Choral Activities at the University of Miami Frost School of Music. Dr. Kjelson was one of the kindest and most competent directors of dozens and dozens I have been directed by. He was truly a prince of a man, a beautiful human being. This Randall Thompson setting of these verses was one of his selections for our repertoire. I came to love its beauty then, and though his interpretation was somewhat different than the way it is performed here, I am very pleased and impressed by the beauty and power of this interpretation and performance. I’m also pleased to see that there is another generation of students who are having this music made part of their hearts and souls and who will carry it with them for the rest of their lives.

I'm working on a sermon on this text and listened to this recording.... magnificent. May Hong Kong be granted such just rule.

Heavenly choir.

I came to 2 Sam. 23 in my Bible reading today, the last words of David. I thought of the orchestra song of the same and looked it up on KZbin. This is absolutely gorgeous and delightful to hear!!! Thank you for posting it. 😊👍❤

Dramatic presentation of a choral classic! Wow! I wish I could have been there.
