  • Great!Thanks for posting this masterpiece.This recording is with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra,or other orchestra?It's the best I heard...

  • @alexander1998100 No problem, thanks for viewing/listening! And I don't know that piece of information, unfortunately. Sorry.

  • A beautiful piece of music and someone is writing about killing and class warfare!!? I have enough issues in my life right now, YouTube was always a haven but seems not anymore.

    Thanks to Dodo251 for posting, perhaps you should have blocked comments?

  • @46619TAB No problem, buddy. Glad you enjoyed it! I'm a proponent of free speech so blocking the comments would seem a bit wrong.

  • Written from the composer's heart, this piece really 'hit's' the inner soul, wonderful performance by the orchestra under a brilliant conductor.Beautifully captured by the recording team. Chose this piece to be played at my wifes funeral, along with Pachabell's Cannon, found it very soothing as she was only 40 years old. Thank you for posting this wonderful version.

  • @TheSilverDubberII In perfection, there is no perfection.

    :)

  • This is the 'version' I have been looking for!!

    PERFECTION!!

  • L'Adagio per Archi di Samuel Barber è uno dei doni più grandi che l'umanità abbia mai ricevuto e per il quale non si ringrazierà mai abbastanza il suo autore.

  • I am surprised that so many people can find this to be anything other than a very sorrowful piece. Truly the capacity of man for artistic interpretation is amazing! That said, I did not initially associate this piece with anything (Platoon, etc) and I have always thought of one word when listening to it - suffering.

  • This song is the only thing i thank my cursed fuckin music listening class for.

  • I THINK THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF MUSIC ON THIS PLANET!
