Ennio Morricone - Ave Maria Guarani -The Mission OST

[TheDiamanter]

Beautifully performed!

[MsSummerLightning]

Beautiful. And thanks for the lyrics.

[dibujos]

Impresionante Canción...!!!

[guardiasvizzera1]

Jesuits was all Saints. This is the Truth. Catholicism transformed slaves to human beings.

[violetasuave]

Sublime..!

400 years after, several of the missions (in Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguay and the United States) are still operating. The indians seeked refuge from the killings perpetrated by the "conquistadores" . The orders of the "jesuítas" were those who gave protection even against the will of the Vatican and the aristocracy. The Mission was a good film, made by good people to show a few just men struggling for a better world.

[eskorbutin89]

@clusterguard not necesarilly, jesuits were also colonizers. In the particular case of the guaranis, the jesuits "took them" among other things to exploit their tribal ancient conflicts with the tupis, who were mainly with spanish colonizers. On the other hand, jesuits hold monopolies over several products by the moment. History is not that easy dude.

...semplicemente meraviglioso..!!!!!!!!!!!!!...­quando il vibrare dell'anima supera ogni forte emozione...questa è il piacere infinito che la musica e il canto sanno donare..

[VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA]

The people who says " this one is not the best Ave Maria " are that did not see the movie or not underestand anything, the beauty of this one Ave is that the Guarani ones sing it, is a metaphor of the life and " adapt or die "

[Jotafranzr]

@VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA is not adapt or die. Paradoxically, choosing life, freedom. Unfortunately relativistic thinking now, do not let him.

De otro planeta!

[titiwbrol]

Background details essential. These are not privelaged people who have had singing lessons, but Guarani Indians who have been taught to sing contarary to the way they would naturally express themselves through music, in order to impress their opressors. The beauty of the piece lies in the fact that, however hard they try to sing in this way, they can never betray who they really are, and never should they have to either. They do succeed to impress, but the tribe's fate has already been decided.

@titiwbrol baheya parecó, my friend!

[Wiligot]

[erac091327]

Otimo

[thunderousapplause]

not a fan of this maria. screechy singers. thios song aint for amateurs. kids singing? just b/c they're cuuuute, doesnt mean they shd try 'ave maria'. imo.

[nobel394]

This is a very nice Ave María. But who dares to say this is the best Ave María ever?

you must listen Shubert's Ave María or Bach's Ave Maria (you can listen the Cellia Bartoli version, is incredible). I,m atheist, but Bach was inspired by other force highest than God.

Sorry my English ,Im Spanish and hope you can undesrstand me.

[juglarlocogmail]

BEST AVE MARIA EVER!

[danzaviva]

Oh, and I think I can hear Fozzie Bear in the background, or at least, that is the way I imagine it to be.

[papuette]

@danzaviva i can hear the prop technician smoking a joint in the background. crazy, hu? hahahaha

[danzaviva]

This song reminds me of a half-eaten twinkie. So sad and so lovely at the same time.

[xbxlxexhx]

I personally like Ave Maria from Hitman: Blood Money best.

But I also suspect that these two are utterly different songs.

[DarthDavid95]

reminds me so much of lord of the rings, makes me remember the ancient days; beren and luthien. just listen to it reading the lord of the rings and you will feel epicness.

[xxXLogounXxx]

Ne manquez pas le film...

[1999immortal]

SUPERBE GRANDIOSE QUE DU BONHEUR MERCI

[0men3]

niesamowite kiedy zaczynaja śpiewać "ave maria..."... ten zahukany tłum bezzembnych wiesniaków...wspaniałe!

[CapitanFiro]

spanish jesuitas are legend

[pawlec7]

Błogosławiona Maryja która jednoczy nas z Bogiem

Spośród ludzi wybrana, zna piękno świata

Nie zapominajmy że

W jedności z Bogiem podtrzymuje nas w miłości

Z nami łamie się chlebem

Święta Mario naucz nas

Otrzymywać wszystkie dary z pokorą

[pawlec7]

One person dislikes this video - burn in hell...

[Kajstura]

@pawlec7

[frenze1945]

this makes me cry when i think in my dad and my grandfather, this wakes up so many feelings inside me, i cant explain how im feel listening to this, its just so complicated to express myself, the only certain thing is: this song is beautiful

[brdjdave]

[frenze1945]

[AdmiralBlasdeLezo]

[CRIMINARQ]

SUBLIME!!!

[fabiolatarantini]

molto bella!

[ramirocop]

Bellisimo!!!!

[AutobotXX]

The male tenor (or baritone?) at 1:54 gives me goosebumps

[Draugdurdil]

@AutobotXX it's baritone ;) i sang it once, it's the only part when baritone comes that high (d)

[dek1093]

Whenever I am in a foul mood I listen to this and all my bad feelings go away. I am in God's arms for 2 minutes and 51 seconds.

[hymnal777]

Sancta Maria nobis doceas ut omnibus assentiamus cum humilita te

Holy Mary teach us to yield to all things with humility.

[DarthDavid95]

every time i hear this it reminds me of the lord of the rings, i don't know why.

[Cristina1940]

dolcissima :)

[emersonantof]

y los corruptos de la academia nunca lo premiaron por sus magnificas bandas sonoras....... por suerte, no es necesario esa estatuilla para que el mundo sepa lo que es en realidad Ennio Morricone!

[Msalopezbard]

@emersonantof Perdon pero si lo premiaron con un Oscar honorifico entregado por Clint Eastwood. Pero es verdad, se tardaron bastante, porque en los 60 y 70 competia con grandes como lalo schiffrin, Michel Legrand, Tom Jobim con Orgeo Negro y muchos otros. Sus mayores logros los tuvo en los 90, cuando estallo como musico por encima de su propia produccion mostrando un genio incomparable. Saludos

[emersonantof]

@Msalopezbard tu lo has dicho... un oscar "honorifico"..... me referia a que nunca lo premiaron en la categoria correspondiente! saludos!

[szopq]

gordżes

[helderdanielreyeable]

[123elek456]

[alevertiente]

la mejor!!! excelente!!

[Notiziefresche]

SEMPLICEMENTE: BELLISSIMA!

[olibxl]

Je n'y peux rien mais chaque fois que j'entends cet Ave Maria je pleure comme un enfant. C'est une des choses les plus belles et les plus profondes qui aient jamais été écrites.

[resplendent667]

I was curious about the Latin, so here's a very rough translation I found, in case others wondered:

Hail Mary, who joins us to God,

chosen from among the whole multitude of men,

do not forget your nature (character),

but restore us to the love of God.

He broke bread with us [line repeated 3x]

Holy Mary, teach us

to assent to all things with humility.

[chimenea6385]

great comment!

[monicuzza1]

SPECTACULOS.Este cel mai frumos cantec AVE MARIA.ESTE VENIT DIRECT DIN RAI

[papuette]

Ave Maria Guarani- Ennio Moriicone

Soundtrack movie- "The Mission"

Ave Maria quae nos deo coniungis

Inter hominum electa universi multitudinem

Memorares ne obliviscaris

Naturam tuam at Deo restituax nos dilectos

Cum nobis panem fregit

Sancta Maria nobis doceas

Ut omnibus assentiamus cum humilitate

Thats the lyrics, and I think it is acurated,but not completely shure.

[MARTABHI]

the best ave maria of the world

[MrPopeye232323]

@MARTABHI no.. well don't get me wrong i love ennio's music but the best Ave maria is schubert's Ave maria... this is good though.

[BigRedTooL]

This is so beautyful!

[ignacydom]

This is the best Ave Maria! Way better than Bach's!
