i am a vietnam vet, become pacifist: this recording gives me chills every time I listen. Haley brings such innocence and beauty to it ... now i am tearing up egad
I sing this in concert choir!! But it sounds WAYYYYYYYYY different. Actually I think our version is better not that this version or original isn't. It's just kinda boring after a while. She has a nice voice but I wished there was another melody of more lower voices. Hers was too high. But it was perfect, this woman should be a Celtic singer. They are called angel singers. Especially she'll fit in. Hey everyone look up CELTIC WOMEN! If you wanna see more perfect singing like this one. :)
Beautifull, perfection, no other word to describe it, the total combinations of sound's are just heavenly .Sarah Brightman is not in the same class, just my opinion.
Eh. So she can hit a high A. Fantastic feat achieved by few--or at least, achieved /well/--but I find lower, richer, more melancholy ranges more mellifluous and aurally pleasing.
I wonder if when she was young she looked at everyone and said, "I'm going to sing on TV like an angel!" And I bet everyone laughed. But now look at her!
Shylodragon, any competent voice teacher can teach a soprano to sing an effortless A...it is not a remarkable thing. Sopranos also sing B, C, D, and even E & F on some occasions. You CAN learn...this is a physical skill that just requires training, like an athlete or a dancer...it does cost money to have a good teacher but it is worth every penny. Do it, and you'll wonder why you waited so long. Save up...you would spend the money anyway on something else that will bring you far less joy!

A relatively simple tone poem turned into one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever performed... all the way to the closup of her during the last few seconds.
The high A reached at 1:39 and again at 2.00 - Absolutely angelic!
Music is well said to be the speech of angels; in fact, nothing among utterances allowed to man is felt to be so divine. It brings us near the infinite.
"Requiem" is a Catholic service (liturgy) for the dead, made up of nine "prayers" in Latin and Greek. What composers have done over the centuries (Mozart, Verdi, Haydn, Berlioz, etc.) is make their own versions, driving their skill and talent to the limit in the service of the deceased and of God.
And even if one can't respect the music for the fact that it is holy, one can still enjoy the beautiful, solemn, and consummate melodies.
Contrary to popular belief, and when I say that I mean the vast majority of us Americans(admit we're ignorant) don't know this but Muslims do believe that all prophets from Christianity and Judaism (including Jesus which they claim is not the son of god) are prophets but that they weren't told the whole truth by god. Muhammad(P.B.U.H.) is the true prophet. I'm humanist atheist.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Way too far from it mate.... All the prophets including JC were just prophets delivering the message. Muhammad (PBUH) is the LAST prophet. The message amongst all were basically the same.
But even still...WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH THE YOUTUBE VID?
Some Muslim was talking about it but he removed his messages. I could care less about prophets, none of them are right. Muslims believing Muhammad(PBUH) was the true prophet, Christians believing Jesus was, all that shit doesn't hold value with me. I thought I'd clarify because some Muslim brought up Christian-centric music and said Muhammad(PBUH) was right was the true prophet. People were being mean to him(us Americans) so I thought I'd help him out by clarifying.
Yes I favourited it dont worry though I'm not confused. I'm a Muslim who likes to listen to some choir music as long as there's no blasphemies going on ie saying Jesus is G-d or the son of G-d, which he is neither but rather a Holy Prophet of G-d. Does thou not knoweth the Lord would send Angel's before manifestinfg in human form fool's!
let's cut the shit! England dosent want to recognise me the paki's definitely dont want to recognise me. Youre all user's what suit's you best eh. Know this now you get no help from the Angel Michael untill the Paki bastard's next door to me both end's are removed InshAllah.
it is the Benedictus (latin prayer) from the setting by Karl Jenkins from his requiem for peace "The Armed Man" look it up on here its a stunning requiem
is this song latin? it sounds like it, in fact a couple of the songs i've heard sung by her on Endless Ocean sound latin, am i correct? if not what language is it?
Does anyone know if she covered this from an earlier version of Benedictus, or if this is an original version?
