When the oboe soloist begins "The Lord is my Shepherd" my knees go weak. It is so utterly sublime.

Sang this with performance ensemble and orchestra in high school - I can still sing my Alto 2 part (and sometimes tenor) for most songs. One of the most pivotal pieces of music in my life. Stunning to listen like this.

What a privilege those performers had, being conducted by the composer himself! He's such a kind, gentle and encouraging man. A very moving performance indeed, of such a beautiful work!

Preparing to sing this next weekend 30th and 31st March 2019 as an opportunity for people living in Tauranga, Bay of Plenty, New Zealand to mourn the tragic killing of 50 innocent Muslim people at prayer on Friday 15th March. Such an awful thing to have happened in a peace loving country like New Zealand. John Rutter's Requiem is such beautiful music that we hope that it will give people who come to listen a measure of comfort in their grief. Pray for us as we endeavour to give our all to this music.

@tt3374 Год назад

I adore this work, but I think it is more effective sung by a smaller choir. This results in sound that is more ethereal and has a purer quality. The original CD recording of this great work is my favorite. It can be heard on RU-vid.

I ADORE this Requiem. However, the choir is not the best sounding..... Though this building certainly wasn't made for such concerts... (acoustics). Still thank you so much for posting and it is a joy to be able to see the composer himself conducting his work.

@glibbergloop 2 года назад

Naw this building would have made the sound lovely if it were a little more polished to begin with. There is a pretty hefty mix of tonalities with this group - they aren't matching each other very much. With that being said I enjoyed this recording anyway :)

@user-jf5bm7rz8s 11 месяцев назад

Well they are in a church singing a requiem... you can see that as Maestro Rutter turned around, the assembled leapt to their feet. it wasn't golf claps, it was cathedral claps! Even the wonderful soprano soloist gave an almost self-deprecating bow. Some churches don't allow clapping at all - or any other noise. I once sang a funeral mass in a very conservative parish, during the papal administration of St. John Paul II. When the organist and I entered, our youngish priest was prostrated face down at the altar. My colleague and I proceeded to the organ, where we quietly discussed the order of the service, as there were no programs and i would have to announce all the hymns, etc. From his position on the altar, our presider hurried over to us, then announced in a loud whisper, a hint of exasperation in his voice,"The Lord is in His tabernacle!" Anyway, I love this work. Was the soloist singing along during the 23rd Psalm?

I placed, a long time ago, John Rutter on my "Innermost Concentric Circle" of most favorite Composers. This happened in 1985, when we were present for the South Florida debut of the Requiem at Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church in Ft. Laudedale, Florida. Instantly, I wrote on the program notes comment to my parents: "The Composer just wrote himself a HIT !!!!". We shook his hand and he graciously gave us his autograph. We expressed to him that we had just been "SWEPT AWAY" by his Creation!! I must mention that the, lofty, breath- taking, "Pie Jesu" was, HEAVENLY sung by Soprano Sung-Sook-Lee(sic), who had just given up a career in Opera, as a Spinto "Super Star", in order to thank God for the Miracle of curing her Mother of advanced Cancer !!!! However, in this specific video of the Requiem's debut in Florence, Italy, the Composer seems to be having an "off day" as the Conductor. The Tempi were too fast, the singing was bold and healthy, but not ethereal This a Work, WHICH--DOES-- EVOKE--- --- MAGIC !!!! The Chorus was "off the frequency" of such "upwards-wafting" Magic, although, to be accurare, not egre- giously so. I had to get this criticism "off my chest", as I am an intense Lover of all types of Music! Nonetheless, I enjoyed John Rutter's Requiem, so much--- as I always do!!!!

@musicdirector8661 6 месяцев назад

Did you actually hear the pages being turned? If you are more concerned with background noise maybe you are missing the point of what the composer was trying to to convey. I doubt that Mozart or Bach were concerned with their orchestra turning pages

@dennisrice2763 4 года назад

For those of you who are so highly critical of this, there are a number of things to consider in your arrogance; acoustics - the building was never intended for a performance like this; the choir is obviouusly a choir of amateurs, not your usual trained musicians; the women far out number the men; the "flapping" of Rutter's arms as he conducts - there is no doubt what he wants out of the work/choir of amateurs. Additionally, he/they probably had only one rehearsal together. And for those of you who feel put down by the work, you're the one with the problem, not John Rutter.

@radio79junkie 4 года назад

Very well said, Dennis. I sang in this in the early 90's in Virginia, and I can attest that it's not an easy piece. I dare say these naysayers could do no better...unless they're professionals-which I doubt.

@jamesbrauer3563 3 года назад

I agree with everything you say here. I personally cringed at hearing this, bur that's because I only listen to the best recording out there: the Cambridge Singers. Rutter's piece has such exquisite purity that it's especially hard to hear it with less-than-ideal intonation. The lucid transparency of the music leaves the choir's flaws with less room to hide behind, as it were. In this sense, it is a difficult work to perform. Most choirs don't reach the heights of perfection that certain choice recordings do. To hold them to that standard is foolish. I appreciate the sincerity of the performance, and the participant's comments here. Bravo!

@katherinebrumley7794 2 года назад

I love this one, but it is only because this is the one our director wants us to use for practice at home before our Concert in November. And we are all amateurs except for the director and my friend.

@jacobbump1282 2 года назад

I don't think amateur has anything to do with it. Robert Shaw's Atlanta Symphony Chorus was a chorus of amateurs and under his direction, it was the best chorus in the country and regarded as one of the greatest in the world.

@pietrorusso7195 Месяц назад

Choral performance, in my humble opinion, not up to par and with various inaccuracies... It is certainly due to the fact that it is performed by many choirs (with different vocal styles and settings) that are put together and which then, physically, is not possible to have the time necessary to take care of the details and a vocality that is as homogeneous as possible.

@GenXDaddyO Год назад

Rutter leads this large ensemble of greatly various volunteering amateur and professional choristers very intelligently and effectively; one cannot be subtle in conducting such groups, especially in a space like that. Successful performance here is all about decisive timing -- vital, simple, agreeable rhythm, declamation, and flow. And it's quite a wonderful performance! These singers beautifully agree with each other and the orchestra and Mr. Rutter. The orchestra is absolutely lovely, and no doubt the singers must have really enjoyed the occasion to ride and soar along all together. Best to them all in their local communities!

What John Rutter lacks in compositional skills he more than makes up in conductorial incompetence. Observe him waving his hands like a penguin about to regurgitate half-digested fish to his chick. The music is similarly half-digested derivative, sentimental, mawkish gloop. It desacralizes the basilica.
