KMEA Allstate SATB Choir is doing this piece this year <3 I'm already in love with it and I'm so excited to perform it.

[jacquidic]

So lovely.

[gomogoXD]

i sang this for choir :) it was an amazing arrangement and i loved every time we sang it

[situationalstudent]

How can I express my...gratitude, perhaps? This is one of the most beautiful arrangements I have ever heard and I feel so blessed to have been able to do this my senior year. We had done the entire Carmina Burana earlier last year, and I thought, surely, nothing would impress me after that, but how wrong I was! I may not be a Christian, but this particular arrangement embodies the suffering of Christ and I would be a blatant liar if I claimed those last few measures don't bring tears to my eyes.

[yootubeloobe]

This song is so beautiful! One of my favorite pieces all senior year! :D It so much fun to sing and it's a pleasure to hear. I wish it was more recognized!

[twelvess]

My Chamber Choir just sung this at our March concert at Freeport High School in Maine. It was amazing! This is an amazing piece to perform! Thank you Philip Stopford!

[magicarp79]

Where can I find the sheet music? It's not available at the local music stores. Ordering online would take too long and I want to learn the music now. I can't just hear this beautiful piece and not sing along.

[kidvicious704]

Love this song! Can't wait to do this at Wingate next week

[sonniGURL12]

I sang this for Madrigal Choir in high school. It is so stunningly beautiful.

[sunvampire4]

[MinorFourtyNiner]

[crisnig]

What are those dumbwits on the Cathedral Board thinking???? Someone with that kind of ability is priceless and can choose whither he wants to go!

[FrNickF]

A beautiful piece that is a joy to sing and conduct and never fails to move me.

[matkinsonthebass]

I heard Cantabile from Jersey singing it in rehearsal at Winchester Cathedral - hooked!

[henkvosfox]

Het is weer net iets anders zo'n Ave Verum, Thanks from The Netherlands.

[msfrankie]

beautiful! so majestic. love the raw beauty achieved by the absence of sound equipment and the use of tremendous accoustics!

[nikey341]

Great blend. And great acoustics.

[choirboy526]

You are an amazing composer Mr. Stopford!

[RegensChori]

absolutely fantastic music! outstanding!

and such a great performance!!!

bravo

[JU8788]

Softly, swelling, sounding so well in the only space for it, a cathedral.

Sounds; voices, from so far away in time; here now.

Thanks you!

[pipedream2323]
