    This is a superb live recording and concert. I have a recording of this piece, and this live version is every bit as good as the recording. BRAVO to all the terrific musicians involved! In spite of the idiotic, stupid ads.

    Wonderful piece, and how young John Rutter looks 😊 Performing this tomorrow in Chester Cathedral ❤❤

    Trotz technischer Schwierigkeiten ist das eine eindrucksvolle Aufnahme. Wieviele gute Stimmen, wieviel Interesse! Und: die Sänger dürfen sich bewegen. Selber Chorsänger, weiß ich, wie wichtig das ist. Danke an grade mal 33 Sänger und ein paar gute Solisten! Christoph Kirschhöfer aus Aachen.

    So cool to see Caroline Ashton singing live! I love her rendition in the Cambridge Singers recording. The best version of the work in my opinion. However, this is a fantastic concert. Thank you so much for posting. I see this channel is called the "Archive of Recorded Church Music". Might I ask if you have any available footage of the conductor Robert Shaw, in concert? If so, I would be so grateful if you all were to post some.
