I think the cellist saw the angels of heaven listening in when he looked up.
The only problem is that it isn't long enough. I never want it to end.
I've left the world of human madness and politics and am enthralled with the voices of the instruments being lovingly brought to life by these extraordinary musicians...I discovered them today and feel I have found the most wonderful gift of joy and beauty...thank you....thank you....thank you.
Beautifully written
@@ChristopherLH11 Thank you!
Amen to that. There’s also a movie about him and his family on Acorn FYI
@@TheDivafiddler Thanks for info concerning this extraordinary family.
Yes, i look at happy things and listen to a very, very wide array of music.
I am in tears right now. This is one of my favorite pieces. If possible, my Mom loved it even more. She really loved the Kanneh-Masons as well. I lost her this spring. I know she’s smiling. Thank you for this magical moment!
😢😢
Lost my mom last spring and she would have loved this also. I am taking cello lessons, hope to be able to play this some day.
Just read your message and am sorry for your loss. Nothing brings back memories of parents more than the music you have loved and shared. Believe me, I know and am with you.
I love this too so much. Heard it when watching dying swan. So sorry about your Mom.
Hope you feel much better :)
The cello just sang with such colors and fragility/sensitivity, intoxicating.....
Sheku is one of the best cellists in his generation!
This guy has time beyond his years. Being so relaxed, leaving notes hanging around just this little bit longer, this little bit later, gorgious. The piece is easy to play, but not easy to make it the right balance between sterile and hokum. For my taste, he nails it.
To all of the Kanneh-Mason family of musicians, I say thank you for the beauty you bring to us.
For a moment, I forgot to breathe; you literally took my breath away, and I love you all the more for it.
❤🎼❤
The way he's so in tune with his instrument, just looking at his face he really feels and appreciates every note, awesome!
This was beautiful. I cried.
listen to the yoyo ma one, im not saying this isn't great, but it is not even comparable to Yo yo ma's Swan. I honestly believe Yo yo ma has played the swan perfectly
@@yubinizer thanks, I'll check it out.
@@yubinizer
I love Yo Yo Ma, and he is an exceptional artist, but, having acknowledged that, I have to say that this rendition has a lighter and more delicate touch and feel that makes this different, not inferior.
One can appreciate lilacs as well as roses.
@@donna30044 True! Sorry, Its just that personally, Yoyoma's swan is just uncomparable to this and captures an essence that i haven't seen replicated. But I totally do understand that this interpretation was also very impressive and interesting :)
Me tô😢
If you ever saw the swan, this will make you feel what it is. B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L
Yes watching ulyana dancing to dying swan will make you cry. Beautiful
Humans really are extraordinary. We've created so much beauty
Thank you Kanneh-Masons for letting God use you in such a powerful way....
That was Super Incredible!!!!!
Hands down the best performance of this piece I’ve seen. To the performers: thank you
Agreed, although Yo-Yo Mar is more experience this by far the more accomplished performance.
@@johnheywoodtrombone agreed
ua-cam.com/video/9_TqlCsFMf4/v-deo.html this ones my personal favorite although the piano is overwhelming
I did not to expect to like the tempo choice here, but this was incredibly musical. Lovely playing to all!
Holy tone! That was absolutely gorgeous. I've never heard it interpreted better.
I don’t know how to describe this… the way they played this piece resonated with something deep within me. It’s like it touched my soul and I felt the beauty ❤
Such a blessing to be so talented. What a beautiful family of musicians
That cellist! 😱🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ absolutely beautiful playing and the emotion on his face throughout 😍❤️ this was stunning! 🥰
@sheku kanneh-mason oh bless you! Thank you 🥰❤️ you have amazing talent and it’s so beautiful to listen to 🥰❤️❤️❤️
@sheku kanneh-mason thank you sweetie 🥰❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘 blessings and much love to you too! ❤️ I hope you will continue to thrive 🥰🙏Xxxxx
@Dylanscottmusicyou’re such a bot cuh
@@bethysbarnsheku is def one of the best cellists around at the moment. I don’t really like how the second section sounds on the D string but eh its whatever. Last 5 years he’s been improving like crazy.
Yo yo ma def has best fingers for the swan
Unspeakably divine ... This whole extraordinary project, with Michael Morpurgo in the mix as well (visibly moved by his inclusion with the Kanneh-Masons), is going to be a game-changer.
Thank you Kanneh-Mason family. What a gift. ❤
I have been trying for so long to find a version of the swan I liked, and I think I found it. Every other version I've heard has either been too rushed, or has no passion. This is perfect.
There's others actually played slower yet, as u say others also lack passion. This has everything a truly beautiful piece of music should have.
I'm not a musician, but how can you tell when the performer has no passion?
@@pixelwoody6493 it's hard to explain. The notes resonate more in your soul. I guess when someone plays it without passion, they play it like a robot. They play it exactly as the sheet music says. Nothing more, nothing less. They don't add their own flavor to the piece. When you play with passion, you can instantly tell by the way their notes resonate.
Thank you so much 🥲
Absolutely Perfect.
This cellist is so expressive in interpreting the beautiful and graceful swan. It's such a beautiful piece.
So much passion
So I cried after listening to this and told my wife about it. Also I did a thing... and now am a proud owner of a cello that I can play for my daughter. You guys inspire me as African American family that works hard. No more clarinet and hello cello life thank you
who could POSSIBLY dislike this !!
I know I have already commented but you are so utterly beautiful and bring something that the world is sadly missing at the moment - total beauty and serenity. Don't ever lose the magic your family has!
His wonderful performance is a great gift to the Zoo lovers
?
After listening to this piece I'm reminded of a radio listener stating that...music has restored her faith in mankind. How could you not love this? May God bless and keep the Kanneh-Mason family.
Lovely music.
The joy of music is language on the next level.
Beautiful ❤
I live in New York. Just received my Kanneh-Mason's album, Carnival of the Animals, all the way from the United Kingdom. Opening it now. I can now listen to the Kanneh-Mason classical at any time! My favorite piece remains to be "The Redemption Song". I find myself humming the beautiful melody. Hoping they will be in concert in New York City!
Probably the best performance of this I’ve ever heard! One of my favourite pieces of music ever and you nailed it! The tempo and feeling so perfect! ❤️
The perfect pitch, tempo, attack, subtle modulation of the volume, vibrato and bow control is absolutely amazing! I have never heard better. Other musicians' technical virtuosity takes a distant second place to the emotional beauty he expresses in this performance. 👋👋👋
I just love this family! So talented!!!!
Absolutely beautiful, thank you for sharing
Absolutely beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with the world!

Your music always takes one's breath away, filled with beauty and grace that makes our world a better place! One of the silver linings of COVID-19 -- discovering you and your family's talent. Grateful!
I double cried

Sublime.
The expression on his face is just so beautiful to look at. He’s really into the music as one
The whole family are just superb. Love them and their musical talent shines through, to have 1 family so super talented is a beautiful gift to the world.
I love their casual way around classical music, demystifying the whole genre and making it accessible. They are the oxygen for a dying genre of music!
So beautiful. Ty
It's rare for a piece of music to actually bring me to tears. Wow.
Beautiful ! You are an inspiration to others.
Outstanding, I love how the siblings go into that amazing bubble when playing, I feel like I too am in that bubble 💯👏
Pure magical music ❤️
One of the most beautiful performances.

Thank you.
I am Burai András from Hungary, from Budapest. I love you.
Such melancholy, such beauty, such loss, such hope.
My only disappointment is that it's too short, Camille's pond was too small :-D
Dear friend, do not worry this melody, it will always remain in your mind and you can repeat it over and over again.
I recognize that the wonderful is timeless, so it will surely remain in one way or another forever in our humble lives.
Best regards.
Lovely excellent piece played by expert performing artists
Beautiful
@@aratiroka1479 yes, of course 'tis
Masterpiece!
Every time I listen to this, I cry. It is so beautiful.
This moved me to tears. Thank you.
I would love to hear him play Tchaikovsky's 7th, reworked as a cello concerto.
That's quite lovely.
Magnifique!
Thank you Sheku & Isata and the rest of your siblings!! I adore you guys!
