What makes this piece the most beautiful is that it is a love song, a tribute to God's gift of love, but it is most famous for the idea of meeting God in death. Two of the most important moments in our lives, connected in spirit by this brilliant third gift from God and of course Samuel Barber, who was young and in love when he wrote it. Some say it is a testament to the folly of war. In its brilliance, it can mean anything life has in store for a soul, including death.

When all too many words and too many prayers and broken promises and personal and worldly problems make it seem hopeless... .that's when Barber's music speaks for us... This music reminds me of the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ.. Absolutely excruciating pain .. leading to freedom and life.

Lost for words Beyond magical !

My students listened to this with their eyes closed. By the end, some were weeping. One said, "That's the saddest thing that every happened." Another said, "Or the most beautiful love, ever." And the third one said, "Or both. Both at once."

Some suffer from the guilt of survival. I have spoken with some from WWII who suffered from it. One vet who had been a prisoner of the Japanese told me he had tried to cherish his life and personify compassion as a tribute to those who scarified all. When I hear this piece, I try to remember this sage advice. Works sometimes. The guilt is alive and well.

Wat zo leuk is aan An Pierlé, is dat ze haar publiek nooit onderschat. Ze maakt geen compromissen en schuwt de lelijkheid niet. Ze blijft, in het firmament van singer songwriters (zelfs internationaal), een aparte plaats innemen. Ik ken geen enkele andere zangeres/zanger die op deze manier met lelijkheid/eerlijkheid/complexiteit omgaat, bovendien op zo een lichtvoetige manier.

Het beste wat België ooit voortbracht.

El genio de Bernstein, una música increíble. Que más?

Intriguing - that’s the word; full of beautiful dissonance and delicious manifold surprising taste

An Pierlé is so underrated! This concert makes me question the “common” music we get to hear everywhere - like: music can be THIS much, THIS interesting, bold and intense.

Possibly the most moving music ever.

19:44 The solo violin here was an excellent choice by Bedford as it matches the expressiveness Oldfield's guitar (at very high register) extremely well, and possibly even more beautiful which is a giant ask when comparing to Oldfield.

I remember listening to this músic when I was watching the movie. I absolutely loved it, rhe music, that is!

This music heals me

On voit en quelques sorte, les debuts de Thierry ragueneau, qui deviendra plus tard la future voix française du "Mentalist" et qui a joué le rôle de François marci de "plus belle la vie".

Concert mythique avec le grand gourou qui saute tout le temps, le gratteux à la tendinite après chaque concert, le mouton exceptionnel à la batterie et... Mike Oldfield qui a créé ce miracle.

Cheers from Amsterdam !! 🇳🇱✊🍀🥂

This piece has been used in so many films that it’s as recognizable as the most famous works of the great masters.

This piece was arranged for string orchestra from the second movement of his String Quartet, Op. 11. A less lush. more intimate, and equally powerful version of this masterwork.
