And if you need any more proof of this, go listen/watch to the performance of this piece by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, including superbly choreographed ballet ensemble, performed by the acknowledged TOP choir in the ENTIRE United States, with its almost 1000 highly-trained and disciplined voices, with absolutely PRIMO recording characteristics (it was a PBS special, for chrissakes,) and you will STILL agree that the performance by PRO CANTU exceeded this one by a choral MILE!!!

Thank you. The high quality version will be out soon....watch this space :)

In addition to this beautiful performance by ProCantu, there is another excellent performance of this piece without the microphone feedback. It is conducted by Eric Whitacre, posted in March of 2008. Search "Lawrence Free State High School Chamber Choir" from Lawerence, KS. You'll enjoy is as well.

Thank you very much.

OK....so please, do NOT misunderstand the intent of this comment....I have been magnificently supportive and complimentary...so what's the "holdup?"....why can't a "good" microphone be secured and the performance be re-recorded in all its obvious glory? There is simply no better choral group/conductor on the Internet....what are you waiting for? (just saying...think it's high time for you to "get it together" and shine your true light for the world to see/hear)

[procantu]

Thank you for your comments. Our online shop is almost finished. We have a high quality recording. It will be released soon.:)

Musical Greetings

Beautiful. Just beautiful. The dynamics are so pronounced. More than I have heard from any other choir. This is the way it shoudl be done always. Thanks for posting it.

your hall has such a wonderfully warm flavor when it comes to acoustics. i performed with you in cape town a year and a half ago, and you are twice as breathtaking in person. i loved bawo, but couldn't have we done lux instead?

I have sung this in Guildford Cathedral and I know how it moves everyone who hears it. You really have done it justice, Pro Cantu.

@vmike1027 um, you do know that mormon tabernacle choir is volunteer and non-auditioned? For such a choir, they are unbelievably talented, but I would not consider them the best of all mixed choirs. In fact, Concordia, the London select ensemble (450 voices), and Bella voces (female chanticleer) could contend for the top spots. That said, all this talent comes from our all-state chorus singers and other great individuals. Keep doing what you're doing, all choral singers. We love you.

@vmike1027 I just LOVE this choral recording so much it is almost impossible to say...I come "back" to it every several months or so...STILL have never found anything else that equals it....these young singers and their conductor simply hit EVERY note, with such precision and beauty, it is simply BREATHTAKING....

[jonb793]

this performance brought tears to my eyes....unbelievable....the mastery of both the conductor and the performers is unparalleled...why has the world not heard of these singers?

[mikedowd66]

These singers are heaven.

Digital distortion is hell.

[Firemoonsoul]

Wow...and I thought my school's advanced choir was good! You guys are great! I'm sad now, though, because I used to think my choir was the best in the world. Ah, well; I've found someone better! Great job 5/5 stars!

This song is so beautiful. There are no words that can fully describe how beautiful it really is. It gave me goosebumps lol.
