What Sweeter Music - Mormon Tabernacle Choir

[pbj4toast]

Thank you John Rutter for writing such a beautiful piece of music. Thank you Mo-Tabs for such a heart rending performance of it.

I love watching the lady's diction at 2:40. It is a spiritual experience just to watch her enunciate.

this is an example of More being less... the piece sounds so much better with a small chorus.... listen to the original for the real experience

[elzarcho]

@gymini29 I disagree. While a small chorus certainly can do this piece beautifully, there's a majesty that only a large choir (and frankly, only THIS choir) can bring. They don't perform it perfectly here; their album version is naturally more polished and better produced.

@elzarcho Thank You and I agree, Really!!! You are much more kind then I. I would have just flat out told these people to get out of academia land and to get over themselves. Beautiful chorus and this performance is spectacular! It displays much more of a powerful sound that a chamber ensemble couldn't, The vibrato? Come on, straightone is nice and more intimate but gets boring really quick and never delivers the meaning or expression. This has expression and most definately delivers a message.

This choir is magnificent, but perhaps this is not one of their better songs. Too much distracting vibrato and some individual voices stick out, in my opinion.

[Goncau]

Choir much oversized! For this piece of music, a small group is definitely preferable !

[elzarcho]

@Goncau I disagree.

This conductor is excellent

[Dillerjohann]

Ei Chor der äußerst diszipliniert ist und über ein Maximum an Stimmkapital verfügt. Die Mormonen sind nun mal sehr Überzeugend.

These videos are absolutely emotive! They deserve much more watchers and the best scores. Thanks for sharing

A fantastically beautiful song performed by an amazing and inspiring choir.

There seem to be quite a few John Rutter pieces in one concert. Or am I mistaken with the red dresses and beads ?
