[BlueChoirJere]

very like this song.. people indonesian who was muslim,,this time lot of them join choir's and sing religious song's..

anyway, may i know, who's the composer of this song?? is lovely.

[Leviwosc]

Very good quality! Wonderful song, pity that it had to be a religious song.

[194Anonymous]

@Leviwosc Why a pity? If we look back in time, much of the music developed because of religion and some of the best music and composers come from religious roots.

[Leviwosc]

@194Anonymous: True, you're absolutely right. But I pity that. Look at Johann Sebastian Bach for example. One of the greatest composers in German history. He wasted all his talent and all his life to church, composing masses and other religious music. I get sad, thinking of the idea of what this man could have achieved if he composed works for other institutes than the church. So much potential wasted IMHO. But you're right... lots of great music comes from religious roots.

@Leviwosc You have some a valid point. I asked because I just don't understand when some people automatically dislike/look down upon music just because of its religious background.

I'd like to add that the church often acted as a patron to composers/musicians like Bach and that this support gave them more means to write music. But the past is the past, and I guess the biggest shame is that there aren't more great composers nowadays...

@Leviwosc Wasted his talent?!

the "other institutes" didn't exist

[Leviwosc]

@agrebelamy89: Of course there were. He could have worked as a composer for a renowned orchestra, he could have worked for a royal or imperial family. Bach was good enough, but he chose for the church.

[agrebelamy89]

@Leviwosc what's wrong with that? by the way, Bach composed plenty of secular music

[RadiantAngel1025]

What a marvelous chorus. Very resonant and professional.

[gramps2matt]

WOW!!! I've never heard this piece before. The first two minutes had me wondering how this choir would sound doing Randall Thompson's ALLELUIA.

[drewpiano]
