  • It makes one feel joyful and amazed at the same time.

  • Comment removed

  • i love how around 3.30 the genius that has already been heard would suffice as a fantastic santus, but then Bach pushes the frontiers to the limit even more with that amazing fugue in 3/8 =D

  • Meh. It's too slow and the choir is far too large in this one. The Herrweghe version sounds so much better.

  • I was given a copy of the B Minor Mass when I left my first proper job after graduating. The accompanying card read, "Every home should have a copy!"

    How true! Bach's mastery at its very best.

  • Psalm 100:

    1 "Shout to the Lord, all the earth.

    2 Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs.

    3 Know that the LORD is God. It is he who made us, and we are his[a]; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. 4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.

    5 For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations."

  • This music just plays out of thin air every time I walk into the gym.

  • Satan\m/

  • Maybe that's what the Heavenly choir sounds like when we cross over.

  • Oh yeah.

    

  • I love Bach when its played romanticly

  • It's a bit over the top for me.... How would you say Heir Directori? Ah yes too many notes.

  • @ChiefPO10490 well would you rather it was toned down and crap and prevented from sounding at its most brilliant? Bach is over the top, that's why he was a genius then and a genius now

  • This is the music I want to hear before I die and decompose.

  • this is the music I want to hear when I meet my Savior Christ in Heaven! Glory to Him always...

  • Sagenhaft! 

  • @greatrater Hmm...if that does happen...it could prove my theory to scientists that ears can ejaculate!

  • Absolutley beautiful. Stunning works.

    And that's coming from a 13-year-old schoolgirl.

  • For such a masterpiece, I think YouTube needs to remove the 'dislike' button.

  • this is definitely one of the most beautiful pieces of music by Bach...

  • When the angels play for themselves, they play Mozart. When they play for God, they play Bach.

  • @jetboy33...LOL..that's Classic!!!

  • this is arguably the biggest achievement in music history... it is the most deep, pure, and most sophisticated composition of them all

  • Do people just cruise YT disliking every video they can watch? For the fun of hurting someone's feelings? Because I can't think of another reason why this one was disliked.

  • I hope this is the first thing the aliens hear when they land. Maybe they'll spare us.

  • @Lassannn no it will probably be soulja boy and the aliens will completely whipe out the entire planet without thinking twice about it

  • @Lassannn I'm sorry, remember the space probe they sent out with human blood samples and recordings of POP music, the aliens, unfortunatly will hear the pop music first and decide that they have to clear the human infestation. hahahhaha!

  • @Lassannn I can't remember the show, but I know NASA got a scientist to design a small record like disk that was sent to space to be "found" by aliens or whatever. It had a sort of map of where we are, some math equations, basic nature/earth sounds, and some classical music that he thought was the most "mathematical" or complex. Can't for the life of me remember what composer they used.. I'll have to find and repost.

  • @ninjaweems A map of where we are? That's brilliant.

  • @Lassannn yea, not sure if thats the smartest thing.. go to wikipedia or google and search: Voyager Golden Record

  • Maravilhoso (from Brazil)

  • it's like sea waves are singing !

  • I sang the B Minor last night. This is the first time I've actually HEARD this piece as a whole!

  • Human achievement does not get much better than this.

  • ...one of the best versions, great tempo, great acoustics THANKS for posting xo

  • Thank you for posting the audio. I have an old CD of this masterpiece unfornatly not in good conditions. Can you please add the complete Mass in B minor ?

  • @koran53 You can get the CD at e.bay. Search for 'Eugen Jochum - Bach: Mass In B Minor CD' or 'Donath/Fassbaender/Jochum/+ - Messe h-moll BWV 232'

  • Eugen Jochum and bach...just perfect.

    truly sublime
