I had the good fortune to meet Paul Miles-Kingston at Winchester Cathedral in mid-1985 (I was there for morning service). He came across as an extremely pleasant young chap. I always knew he'd go on to achieve great things.
Okay, so I heared this in a place and the people were like "Why df they singing like that" "look at them they ugly" but all I was thinking was 'they're famous your not stfu'
Loved watching this on MuchMusic in Canada, in the 80's. Still brings tears to my eyes, both for the incredible beauty of the performances as well as the story told.
this is a master piece, every note is perfect, brings tears of joy to my eyes, just pleases me what humans can create. thanks sarah and the boy and the person who wrote the music and words
@Ch1k13 It was played in the funeral of a friend that once sang it (she had a beautiful voice)... very breathtaking, i almost cried... I could feel for one moment that she was there singing too...!!
@koolchick187 I know koolchick already gave you a very rude, albeit fairly informative, answer (and thank you for responding so gracefully, I wish we could see more of that sort of response to all the rudeness on Youtube), but if you're interested I could add just a thing or two more. Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote this piece as part of his Requiem Mass in 1982. He dedicated it to all the children in the world who had lost their lives due to political conflict.
@aarond53 Thanks for the informative answer. Its nice that those children are recognized for something they should be protected from. Sometimes, in their stupid spats, adults forget who is really paying for all of the conflict and violence in the world. Now all I have to do is close my eyes and appreciate this song for what it was written for. Thanks again :D
I might sing this for the choir audition at my college... I can hit the notes, but I'm super nervous because I just now heard this piece and tryouts are this week.
JUST AMAZING...First time I heard this rendition and saw this video, I cried for several minutes after. This is the song I sing at funerals and Requiem Masses...never fails to get the congregation crying. Whata gorgeous piece of music and a gorgeous rendition by Sarah and Miles. Thank you Sir Andrew for another masterpiece.
I've loved Sarah since I first heard her but with this song I have to go with Charlotte Church and her version who put it out on her first album in 98' when mind you she was only 12 !!
Amidst all the praise for Sarah Brightman, everyone seems have forgotten Paul Miles-Kingston, the remarkable (and multi-award winning) treble who sings the alto line here against Brightman's soprano. His contribution to the Requiem, both recorded and in live performance, can't be overestimated. He is now the Director of Music Studies at St Peter's School in York, England. Thank-you, Paul...
If you are right, then why don't you go and find yourself a popera singer. He or she should sound good to you since obviously you know no better. Oh, wait you already have these two don't you. However mediocre they may be.
@Honeybob1 Who said I thought much of these two. Sarah is a Popera singer. Try Susan Graham, Les nuits d'été; Diana Damrau, Der Hölle Rache; Maria Callas, La Mamma Morta; Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, Ave Maria from Otello; Renee Fleming, Beim Schlafengehen, or a million other actual opera singers who have been trained in such things as pitch and breath control.
@wintereis57 Oh, I see. You are just here slumming with the poor unwashed masses who would not understand ( real?) opera. Everyone does not care to be an elitist condescending narcissistic self indulgent opera groupie who gets nosebleeds from looking down it from so high to heap scorn on the " less sophisticated " who treasure the artists you disdain.
@Honeybob1 You are the one who thinks you know SOOOOOO much about the genera that you can say which three are the best and which order they should go in. I just felt it was incumbent upon me to point out that, based on your selection of who is the BESTEST IN THE WHOLE WORLD, that you actually don't know what you are talking about. And slumming is correct
@wintereis57 If you are such a fount of wisdom who thinks he knows better and derides those he labels as popera singers and is toxic to the point of lecturing the uploader and calling him a dipshit, then why do you keep returning to this place? If I were an arrogant opera snot, I would stay away from the popera singers and devote myself to those exalted singers I had listed before in such detail.

to me, itis a tribute to a 13 old girl I onced nursed in Denmark, Rebecca, I will never forget her. She did nothing wrong, she just happen to have a deadly form of canser and I was lucky to know her, hence my daugthers middle name is Rebecca. But, I am still tormented that I was not there for her in her final hours, I just hope she knows that wherever she is. I love you Bec, so much
@kmattar You are absolutely right. All the ones thinking richness is everything are the poorest. Just imagine: which is "cleverer": a money counting machine in a bank, or the bank clerk going to a concert in the evening.

I herd this song years and years ago when I was in high school sung by a girl at my school. Ever since then this song has been one of the most beautifull songs I have ever herd. I love this song and it still makes me tear up a little.
this is a good song to dedicate to the people of Japan who were affected by the earthquake recently. This song goes out to them. Those who died, rest in peace.
WhatWeThink...1997,s performance she explains that Weber made his version of this song for the victims of terrorism in Ireland. Maybe you should try looking it up rather than implying ignorance at people.

WhatWeThinkAboutYou. In 1997 Sarah performed this live in which she explained that Weber dedicated his version of this piece to the victims of terrorists in Ireland. I suggest YOU look it up because I saw that performance I know what I'm talking about
The video represents the people of Ireland. Their years of hardship of suffering from several terrorist groups. They represent the world's sufferers and those who are gone.
Hey - Pokegaga ! Thanks for your speed answer to me . Gabriel Fauré ( french) , wrote an angelical music , to be sang in the Churchs... and we, in the web, could hear and feel the pure feelings growing up in our soul. Sara and Paul - singing with that kind of voice ... I suppose the Angels in the heaven sing like both . Sorry my poor english . Arqueiroify
I just want to cry!! That was the best most beautiful amazing rendition of "Pie Jesu" I have EVER heard!! Sarah Brightman is an angel!! I swear she is! The sound of heaven.
@ThePokegaga You told the words that I would like to say ... but , I'm an old brazilian man and I have afraid my poor English Language could be poor too . Best regards . Arqueiroify - from Brazil -
@Arqueiroify But of course :) Music is an international language, the language of expression. One does not have to know exactly what a vocalists or instrumentalists is saying to feel the music. Music is so powerful; the most powerful weapon.
@jessicafischerqueen Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote this. Faure wrote a Requiem mass, but this is from Lloyd Webber's Requiem Mass, written upon the death of his mother.
@aarond53Nope. - just check Faure Pie Jesu on youtube- it is exactly the same melody and musical arrangement as Webber's- and yet Faure's been dead over a hundred years. You obviously know nothing about classical music history? In fact, it is Faure's arrangement that has served as the template for most or all ensuing versions.
"By Andrew Webber" means he is conducting the performance. That's it.
@aarond53 Look up "Requiem Mass" on Wikipedia. This is a STANDARDIZED devotional chorale that orignates from the Gregorian period of Catholic history. The melodies, even the names of the movements- "Pie Jesu" "Kyrie" "Pariadisium" remain unchanged. All that is "written" is subtle variations in the musical arrangements, tempi, etc.- The version that is most copied by modern composers such as Webber's is tht written by Gabriel Faure.
@jessicafischerqueen Excuse me for saying this, but you are not correct that Webber's Pie Jesu is a variation of Faure's. Each composer created their own melodies for their Requiems. The melody here no similarity to Faure's requiem at all and Webber wanted to create his own melody to prove that he could write serious classical pieces. I can assure you, Webber would be deeply offended by the remark that he is merely "conducting the performance."
@jessicafischerqueen To clarify my last post below, the only similarity between Faure and Webber's Pie Jesu is the fact that, like other composers who also wrote their own Pie Jesu, they based the words that are sung on the same liturgical text. But, again, the melodies, and other aspects of their compositions, are the original compositions of each of the composers.
@aarond53 Oops no you are more correct than me- Webber is indeed following the original chorale melody but he has made significant changes- his version sounds very different than Faure's, or earlier versions in history. You ARE CORRECT. Webber made enough changes to say he wrote a version of this ancient chorale. I AM WRONG I KNOW NOTHING OBVIOUSLY.
She has the most beautiful voice! Too bad that now she pushes her voice too much.. She was designed to sing sweetly, and softly. Like this. She sounds like she really has to push her voice to sing the way she has been lately. It sounded much prettier when she sang songs without so much force. I love how her voice naturally sounds♥ So beautiful!
the purity of her voice in this will remain with me forever. Shame she had to ruin it with opera training...her later versions have me cacking with laughter at her facial contortions.
@HecMan232 No, she ruined it with LACK of opera training. Opera training doesn't ruin one's voice! I don't know why she sings the way she does now & with her weird fish faces, I can only guess that either she didn't have a good vocal coach or stopped having one at some point and forgot how to sing "correctly." Maybe she never had one at all. I don't know her background, but she should have always had one. Even the most famous opera singers today who have been around still have vocal coaches.
I had the good fortune to meet Paul Miles-Kingston at Winchester Cathedral in mid-1985 (I was there for morning service). He came across as an extremely pleasant young chap. I always knew he'd go on to achieve great things.

The young man is Paul Miles. They could (should) have that in the title, to be respectful as it is a duet, after all.
Sarah's voice is pure and lovely, and the boy and her sound sublime together!
GOD BLESS ---- E V E R Y O N E ! ! ! John 3:16 "whosoever" means exactly that! never let 'em tell you differently, they aren't JESUS.

I herd this song years and years ago when I was in high school sung by a girl at my school. Ever since then this song has been one of the most beautifull songs I have ever herd. I love this song and it still makes me tear up a little.

this is a good song to dedicate to the people of Japan who were affected by the earthquake recently. This song goes out to them. Those who died, rest in peace.

WhatWeThink...1997,s performance she explains that Weber made his version of this song for the victims of terrorism in Ireland. Maybe you should try looking it up rather than implying ignorance at people.

WhatWeThinkAboutYou. In 1997 Sarah performed this live in which she explained that Weber dedicated his version of this piece to the victims of terrorists in Ireland. I suggest YOU look it up because I saw that performance I know what I'm talking about

Hey - Pokegaga ! Thanks for your speed answer to me . Gabriel Fauré ( french) , wrote an angelical music , to be sang in the Churchs... and we, in the web, could hear and feel the pure feelings growing up in our soul. Sara and Paul - singing with that kind of voice ... I suppose the Angels in the heaven sing like both . Sorry my poor english . Arqueiroify

@Arqueiroify But of course :) Music is an international language, the language of expression. One does not have to know exactly what a vocalists or instrumentalists is saying to feel the music. Music is so powerful; the most powerful weapon.

Gabriel Faure wrote this- el brightmanno spectaulaaarrrrrre, benes jugar yo gato blanco.
jessicafischerqueen 11 months ago
@jessicafischerqueen Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote this. Faure wrote a Requiem mass, but this is from Lloyd Webber's Requiem Mass, written upon the death of his mother.
aarond53 11 months ago
@aarond53Nope. - just check Faure Pie Jesu on youtube- it is exactly the same melody and musical arrangement as Webber's- and yet Faure's been dead over a hundred years. You obviously know nothing about classical music history? In fact, it is Faure's arrangement that has served as the template for most or all ensuing versions.
"By Andrew Webber" means he is conducting the performance. That's it.
jessicafischerqueen 11 months ago
@aarond53 Look up "Requiem Mass" on Wikipedia. This is a STANDARDIZED devotional chorale that orignates from the Gregorian period of Catholic history. The melodies, even the names of the movements- "Pie Jesu" "Kyrie" "Pariadisium" remain unchanged. All that is "written" is subtle variations in the musical arrangements, tempi, etc.- The version that is most copied by modern composers such as Webber's is tht written by Gabriel Faure.
jessicafischerqueen 11 months ago
@jessicafischerqueen Excuse me for saying this, but you are not correct that Webber's Pie Jesu is a variation of Faure's. Each composer created their own melodies for their Requiems. The melody here no similarity to Faure's requiem at all and Webber wanted to create his own melody to prove that he could write serious classical pieces. I can assure you, Webber would be deeply offended by the remark that he is merely "conducting the performance."
KingOfErehwon 10 months ago
@jessicafischerqueen To clarify my last post below, the only similarity between Faure and Webber's Pie Jesu is the fact that, like other composers who also wrote their own Pie Jesu, they based the words that are sung on the same liturgical text. But, again, the melodies, and other aspects of their compositions, are the original compositions of each of the composers.
KingOfErehwon 10 months ago
@KingOfErehwon Yes you are quite right- I was mistaken on this.
jessicafischerqueen 10 months ago
@aarond53 Oops no you are more correct than me- Webber is indeed following the original chorale melody but he has made significant changes- his version sounds very different than Faure's, or earlier versions in history. You ARE CORRECT. Webber made enough changes to say he wrote a version of this ancient chorale. I AM WRONG I KNOW NOTHING OBVIOUSLY.

She has the most beautiful voice! Too bad that now she pushes her voice too much.. She was designed to sing sweetly, and softly. Like this. She sounds like she really has to push her voice to sing the way she has been lately. It sounded much prettier when she sang songs without so much force. I love how her voice naturally sounds♥ So beautiful!

the purity of her voice in this will remain with me forever. Shame she had to ruin it with opera training...her later versions have me cacking with laughter at her facial contortions.
HecMan232 11 months ago 42
@HecMan232 No, she ruined it with LACK of opera training. Opera training doesn't ruin one's voice! I don't know why she sings the way she does now & with her weird fish faces, I can only guess that either she didn't have a good vocal coach or stopped having one at some point and forgot how to sing "correctly." Maybe she never had one at all. I don't know her background, but she should have always had one. Even the most famous opera singers today who have been around still have vocal coaches.
