The Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square perform “Alleluia,“ attributed to Giulio Caccini and arranged by Mack Wilberg. Episode 4719. Aired February 23, 2020.
So sacred that I always cry while listening!.I imagine all our Savior's pain... His grace and power to heal one by one through His atonement. This song is an spiritual experience of all that JesusCrist is... I love my redeemer and my Heavenly Father.
Thank you for this comment. Stunning, thinking of our Savior's pain, and he did it for ALL people. Even Caiaphas, who condemned him to death. This will now remind me, whenever I hear it, of what price Jesus paid to save me!
Crazy how something so simple can be so powerful and touching to so many people uniquely. There is nothing I’m more grateful in this world than His Atonement. I like to think of this song as a sort of a thank you. Trying to express musically a bit of the wonder that through our brokenness, He makes us whole.💜💜
I love that this beautiful video was aired just before the Covid craziness of 2020 began in most of the world. We have so much to be thankful for, just in this beautiful creation and the love of God. ♥️
I am so deeply touched by this and all of the beautiful comments. This helps me really stop and feel instead of just go go go. Thank you for the meditative, soulful, spiritually theraputic experience. My teenage sons heard this and they LOVED it too.
For my soul delighteth in the song of the heart; yea, the song of the righteous is a prayer unto me, and it shall be answered with a blessing upon their heads. D&C 25:12
I can’t describe how deeply this song have touched my heart, body and entire soul! Thank you, thank you, thank you! This one is part of my healing process ❤️ God bless you all my dear brethren! I truly believe someday...I’ll sing with you in this life or the life to come✨in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
This song floods my soul with so many different emotions like reverence, gratitude and amazement. These emotions are centered on the love I feel our Father in Heaven must have for His children. He has provided a way for us to find peace in this life, even as we go through trials and a way to return to Him. The video shown with the music reminds me of the beauty and majesty of the world that was created for us. Together the music and video are very humbling and beautiful!
Stunning arrangement by Mack Wilberg; stunning performance by the Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square! Truly, world class choir, orchestra, and conductor/arranger!
This beautiful anthem stirs the depth of my soul! Inspired by the Holy Spirit. Amazing talent by Mack Wilberg. Love the beautiful scenery, a taste of heaven.
This is the most beautiful, Celestial music ever written. It truly opens a window to Heaven and brings your soul to Christ. If this does not help you transcend into a holier, more heavenly realm, nothing will.
This performance evokes such wonderful introspection and personal contemplation and a sense of things so profoundly spiritual and above the mundane that I feel a powerful sense of hope through it!
This is the most beautiful and moving piece of music I've heard in a long time. It seems not of this world and offers a glimpse of the heavenly power and beauty that created our world.
Even my teenage children love this beautiful recording. Huge kudos to both Caccini for the stunning tones, and to Mack Wilberg for helping the piece become more focused on the Savior.
This is one of my favorite songs by Mack Wilberg. The way he shapes that one word through such an array of emotions always gives me a chill. More than once while performing this song I had tears in my eyes as the word Alleluia became my own overflowing praise and rejoicing for my incredible love of our Savior.
Terrific arrangement. Every bar is an experience into another realm. So peaceful. Thank you for posting. 'Tis a testament of the power of one word surrounded by beautifully shaped music.
During the Covid pandemic, I was very worry about my health and how I would go to serve a mission during this period, in my preparation to serve a mission, I choose listen many Tabernacle Choir music, and when I listened this song I felt the peace of Holy Spirit invading my heart
This is the most beautiful, Celestial music ever written, in my opinion. No words are really needed other than Alleluia. It's purity transcends this world. It truly opens a window to Heaven and brings you to Christ. Inspired music like this is a gateway to the soul and takes you to a holier realm.
I can't begin to put words to my feelings. The beauty of this song is beyond words. Perfect song for those who lost their lives too soon. 9/11 Never Forget
How can I create a continuous loop of this heavenly song of prayer. I turned off the Social media, news, RU-vid, and sought God's influence and found this. Thank you Mack Wilberg for taking action on. your spiritual gifts and composing such a beautiful composition of talent. I don't know what Heaven will be like, but this has to be close. The feelings and emotions witnessed of God and His Son, Jesus Christ so strong in pondering and listening to this spectacle of music. My new "Go To"... Reverent Tears flowing. Thank you.
Mere human words or earthly images could never describe the glory and majesty of God but if they could this would be as close as I'll ever experience this side of heaven.
You can hear someone cough in the first verse. Too bad bad they didn’t catch it. One of my favorite songs. They sing it so perfectly. Have the Men of the MoTab Choir and it is glorious!! These video’s they’ve made for Music and the Spoken Word are sheer heaven sent beauty as well!! Mack Wilberg is the greatest conductor the choir had ever had. And Ryan Murphy has come to his own and close to Mack nowdays. I love how he is about folklore from the old country. His heritage and mine, same age, he is my musical brother as well my church brother. These two and music like this can awaken the most hardened hearts!!
The composer of this song was "one of the founders of the genre of opera, and one of the most influential creators of the new Baroque style." Here's more about him, from Wikipedia: "“Giulio Romolo Caccini (also Giulio Romano) (8 October 1551 - buried 10 December 1618), was an Italian composer, teacher, singer, instrumentalist and writer of the very late Renaissance and early Baroque eras. He was one of the founders of the genre of opera, and one of the most influential creators of the new Baroque style. He was also the father of the composer Francesca Cacciniand the singer Settimia Caccini.” (from Wikipedia)
Because I love this hymn so much, and also because there are many songs with Alleluia or Hallelujah in the title, I memorized the spelling of the composer's name: GIULIO CACCINI. I doubt whether he ever wrote anything else so inspiringly heavenly - Will there be more beautiful music than this in even the HIGHEST heaven ?
Wow. Just wow… watched “Music and the spoken word” today and this came on. During I wrote title down to not forget this…My wife when done wanted to hear it again as well, so was able to replay… it’s a wow moment. Thank you Mack Wilberg…and Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square!
une pensée pour mes amis Belmondo Jean Paul et Ennio Morricone "Les mesures du temps sont des fois très complexes , il en est une qui n'existe pas ... la mesure du temps passé , on a aimé et puis ... et puis cela demeure ... " ... "The measures of time are sometimes very complex, there is one that does not exist ... the measure of time spent, we loved and then and then it remains " amicalement 🙂
