I can't believe this thread is devolving into a battle of theists vs. atheists.  And all I know is that this piece touches something in me that is at once transcendent and at the same time very, very human.

A very long melody invites a very long counterpoint. I am grateful that Bach worked so hard. Even if you do not identify with a belief system you can still appreciate the devotion to music and its purpose in the church at the time which provided the constraints to produce this architectural masterpiece combining the elements of , counterpoint, spiritual devotion, and that old time clockwork German engineering.

Learning this piece with my choir, definitely a challenge! This gives me hope that when we master it it will be beautiful :)

Clearly you haven't read enough youtube comments! Everything can turn into a battle of theists vs. atheists......

The conductor looks like David Cameron

[Juan María Prieto]

Brilliant. Human is transcendent.

My name is Darin, not whatever you wrote there is not my name. Glad to hear you lived. I had a couple near-deaths myself. But we didn't die and we didn't get over to the other side, so we don't know what happens when we die, honest and truly.

[Roger Robie]

I had a near death experience and for all the evil shit I've done I woulda SEEN it motherfucker
