This song never gets old for me. The crescendo is gorgeous, especially with the piano and strings added. Definitely the best performance of this that I've heard.
"For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands."
I always think this song is just about to burst into a cacophonic chorus with the words of title (the future tense of which s signifcant). the tune builds till it teeters on the brink, but doens't tip over... and i think that's the point. the video captures what the cd track fails to - the final note sounds and the audience respond - clapping
This performance is so beautiful, thank you

totally agree. this version is so good. Sufjan is way underrated. Its too bad not too many people know of him and his talent.

It's been proven he's one of the most listened to artists for those who score high on the SAT's. So that kind of explains it... hahah.

The constantly repeating chord progression effects that quite a bit--the piece savors the lack of resolution to the tonic. I like!
