@Deakinj1 Thank you - I have always found it moving, even more so knowing the words are as magnificent as the music.

@davidofwales In italian (and constantly repeated) the words are: Inneggiamo, il signor non è morto, ei fulgente ha dischiuso l'avel, inneggiam al signore risorto oggi asceso alla gloria del ciel! which means approx: Give praise, the Lord is not dead the suns rays have opened/disclosed his tomb: Give praise, the Lord has risen today and ascended to the glory of heaven.

I found this by accident on a compilation CD, and it moved me to tears. Still does, which is why i do'nt play it too often - I don't want to get so used to it that I do'nt notice it any more! thanks for posting; close to tears again, lol

I've been trying to find the words, so that I can sing along - I'd prefer them to be in English, so I could understand what I was singing, but I ca'nt find the words in any language
