This is so beautiful!

who the heck would dislike this?!

When the prayer theme returns, it is played too fast here (in my opinion). Listen to Karajan's recording, or Solti. This music is so sublime and makes me cry, but when it's played too fast it isn't quite as achingly beautiful

Good brass at 1:40 and 2:35! Where is the Eastman School Symphony Orchestra located?

Magnificent

in my opinion the most most beautiful music ever composed - Humperdinck was a genius

@727100bear I could not have said it better myself.

Got to love those tertial harmonic relationships. Nice clear beat too.
