Beautiful and moving.

[powninnoobs10]

beautiful.....

[kirchberg62]

unbeschreiblich schön,,,,,,,,, könnten doch alle Menschen solch himmlische friedliche Musik verinnerlichen

[sixtelg]

yes



[adonelahi]

I could die right now listening to this...

[SOCORROGM]

@adonelahi i hope u do

[SunriseHealthFoods]

when ever anyone of us wants to write music, we should stop. because ANYTHING we write will be compared with his work and deemed worthless because  it is the lowest of the low compared with Mozart.

[ancamg]

This is so beautiful, words are too small to describe. I used to sing it with my choir. I really miss it.

[StSimonMartyr]

Dominus Vobiscum +

[DAUPHIN1707]

Magnifique !

[SITSEMPER1]

Pax Domini Sit Semper Vobiscum

[TreenaWaldorf]

anybody heard Joaquin dez Prez Ave Verum Corpus?

[jabgotts]

I hope and pray that this hymn is the last thing I hear on Earth.

[AndonElahi]

I always cry at this scene in I am David.

[adonelahi]

I did not know Music like that was even possible...That was perfection

[coloradoschroeder]

Thank you.

[adonelahi]

God inspired Music. True Music.

[paproski59]

Mozart burned bright. This music captures the man, burning with beauty.

[Crazyninja30]

i dont care if you believe in god, gods, or nothing , This piece is the definition of beauty and peace, and it was created by a human.... amazing dont you think.

[lucioscp3]

My wife died too young(she was 29),she showed me Mozart in a time that i was listening Haendel,Beethoven,some heavy metal too,i was thinking that Mozart was overrated !!....I know that all classic composers are great ;but listening Mozart i feel a deep deep peace in my soul...this "Ave Verum Corpus" it´s so peaceful,so simple,it´s like the Heaven itself!

[apowell65]

@lucioscp3

What a wonderful comment. I am sorry about your loss.

[lucioscp3]

@apowell65 Thank you very much for your comment ,.Last year i married again,but i will never never forget my wonderful old teenager friend and wife!She was(is yet in my heart) a unique person.Thank you again and i wish all the best for you my friend.

[Nonie46]

As a theme in the motion picture "I AM DAVID", this music is exactly what the message in the movie would deliver, i.e., where war creates a conflict in the mind of the innocent, and nobody seems to be trusted, there is no refuge but GOD!

[AsMoDlol]

im not even a theist but one cannot remain unmoved by this music.

[MrPiano90]

Sung this piece on a European Choral Tour this summer in Austria. So beautiful. And by the way, who the heck disliked this?

[gpovermankave]

What a lovely rendition. We are singing this tomorrow in church and since I am unable to attend our Thursday night rehearsals, I rely on accompanying myself on piano at home or finding videos on here with which to sing. Thank you for posting this one -- it is the best by far. How sad that some people feel the need to be instigative and cruel by writing hateful things on here. It's simply a beautiful piece of music. Even an atheist can appreciate that, I would hope.

[lucioscp3]

This is the most beautiful music ever written by human´s hands!But it´s remarkable simple and pure!

[XenaAmazon]

This was sung at my friend's wedding when she walked down the aisle. Boy did I cry.

[EmberWolfable]

beautiful...

we are playing this song in our eighth grade band class.we are nothing compared to this :)

[kazhilly]

To the poster of this Video, I'm terribly Sorry to hear that it's attracted some unwanted attention for the wrong reasons. This is such a Beautiful piece of music that explores the boundaries of what can be achieved with human voices..... Stunningly Beautiful, and just a Fantstic piece of "Das Wunderkind" Mozart, and definitely worth sharing with the world, Thank You for sharing!!!

[mzungumedicineman]

Christianity and Islam have evolved different musical traditions, and sensibilities. Please enjoy the diversity this brings.

[Wellsypig15]

I love the pause shortly after 2:50, none of the other versions on youtube seem to do such a dramatic pause but I think it really adds something. Beautiful.

[bobcrunch]

Music from heaven. Mozart took dictation directly from God.

[Navajo549]

no one can beat my beloved Vienna Boys Choir but this rendition is truly beautiful

[domisthebomb09]

This music video isn't about religion or politics. I'm an atheist and I find this beautiful. So shut up and enjoy the singing.

[ratherbdrunk]

As an altar boy for many years, I heard this sung countless times, often at funerals. When this was sung at my beloved Grandfather's funeral, it took on a whole new meaning. I'm sitting hear with tears welling in my eyes at the beautyf of this version. Blessings from the U.S.

[psychomusicanana]

I've loved this since I sang it age 13 in a fabulous choir in NYC. I must say, although not as full as this performance, the Swingle Singers have the best rendition available. I found this one listening to them. See what you think...

[Ron2funny]

To me, music is something that makes you feel closer to god than anything else you can have on this planet, or anywhere else. Thumbs up if you agree. I am loving the video so far.

[JusufJan]

Hallelujah, hail to the Son of Man!

[tonganfoilole69]

Very beautiful heavenly music; love it so much, it bring me peace and so much love 4 our Lord Jesus Christ. Very spiritual..

[dantes2018]

Bravo. Beautifully done. 

[alishepwil]

It's pieces like this that make me want to marry mozart.

[psychomusicanana]

@alishepwil You've a lot to learn about musicians, performers and composers. Enjoy them for their gifts - NEVER marry them. It's bad enough meeting them most of the time!

I never met Mozart, of course, but from what I know of him that's a very good thing.

[terrabun]

this is how it should be done :) used to sing this with Southwark Cathedral choir over the river, it's the piece of music that made me love Mozart more than any other.

[Mountchoirboy]

I sing this in my choir-Each and EVERY time we do it, I shake and get tearful. It is so beautiful that even a non professional choir like us sound like angels.

[singsong1940]

Just so comforting and exquisite. Margaret Kingsley

[valentineanijah]

A solemn and enriching anthem the food of the soul, good for Holy Communion. A master piece for classical choirs.

[dulcismaria]

@cheximus: Do us who believe in God and see His beauty in sacred music a favor and get off this site. Your atheistic comments are not welcome on this beautiful site.

Thank you, Snezhinka9 for putting this exquisite piece on YouTube! It's truly glorious!

[pmgrimaud]

Such powerful music

[mizoginwinter]

Just ... so beautiful; and the clarity of the choir ... exquisite. Thank you.

[SakuraBloome]

i used to sing this song when i was in high school^^ loved it soo much.

[DiazdelVivar]

Mozart!!!!

[elivansouza]

The English ALWAYS surprising us with their perfection. No doubt the best perfornance so far.

[Nonie46]

@elivansouza I myself cannot explain the universal appeal of this song. It is being sung in all Christian denominations, be they Catholics, Baptists, Episcopalians, Mormons, etc. Divine Providence must have worked through Mozart when he composed this song because until now it is still being sung after almost five hundred years that it was composed!

[OctoberMountainGirl]

@Nonie46 TOO FUNNY!!! 500 years???? It was written in 1791 which is 220 years ago.

[OctoberMountainGirl]

@Nonie46 Too funny, 500 years?? It probably will be sung 500 years after it was written, but that won't be for a long time. It was written in 1791 which is 220 years ago!

[kennymuk]

Westminster Cathedral Choir is, in my opinion, one of the best in the country. This was absolutely beautiful.

[Snezhinka9]

Please let me remind everyone that this is a music video. No religious or political arguing in the comments please. If I see another comment intending to start an argument I will have to moderate comments and I dont want to have to do that! Let's keep it peaceful. <3

[renatekl]

@Snezhinka9

Whats your problem, dearest. Its just Mozart. And its from heaven! A famous writer wrote about Mozart: There is nothing to argue. You simpply have adore him.

[sumvii83]

@Snezhinka9 Geez focus on Mozart please people :)

[SOCORROGM]

@Snezhinka9 no way

[dueler21]

im in my highschools chorus and were singing this song. its so beautiful. its also a bit of a challenge which I love about it. motzart is simply delightful

[austinzach00]

My choir is singing this song. Such a beautiful song

[vicky4920]

very very beautiful, we can feel God through this marvellous music.

[TheBeatrixmaria]

@vicky4920

Én is így gondolom. TheBeatrixmaria

[vicky4920]

very very beautiful

[mitsymagicful]

So good to listen to a London choir singing this, greetings from England:)

[Snezhinka9]

@mitsymagicful - thank you! Though actually, I am currently in England :-)))))

[mitsymagicful]

@Snezhinka9 Haha right.. well greetings anyway:) i thought you were all the way away in Russia. I hope you have received a good welcome here in England. Do you play the piano?

[Nonie46]

@mitsymagicful It only shows that Mozart's composition transcends time, place and religious denominations. This song is sung by all Christian denominations, even the Mormons. It was composed a long time ago but remains sung by Christians. It is sung in all the countries even where men do not profess Christianity as their faith!

[TheFestivelights]

@Nonie46 You will not find Islam embracing it, even though it is music 'of the book'. Do you know why, because I don't? You never see Islam singing.

[gebbytoo]

yes, this is a great version! If you haven't listened to more recordings from this choir, you absolutely should. They are one of the best of their type in the world!

Great video by the way- nice pictures
