We performed this piece in its entirety in my high school’s choir class. To this day it’s one of my favorite choral pieces of all time
i WISH. my school would never. i bought the sheet music for this song at the 2023 All-National Choir convention last year. I fell in love with it.
My body is still here but my ears just went to Nárnia.
What a unbelievable music. Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷
My choir is singing this this spring. It is absolutely devastatingly gorgeous! Deeply emotional, beautiful music!
I've listened to this about a dozen times over the course of the last month and it's breathtaking. If the heavens were descending to Earth, this is what I would like to hear while it was doing it. Bravo!
Absolute bliss... I remember a very similar performance by Ola at Carnegie Hall April 15, 2018. It was such a uplifting experience to sing for one of the most gifted choral composers of our time.
i was in that choir!!
So beautiful! It reminds me of calmness from the music "Vide Cor Meum".
I love the music of Ola Gjeilo and I love this choir. Thank you for giving me much pleasure over the last few years.
I am so entranced by this performance, because we need all the beauty and enchantment we can discover
Ola Gjeilo is truly SPELLBINDING... What a composer!!!!!
Dreamweaver
lyrics by Charles Anthony Silvestri
1. Prologue
Listen!
I sing the sacred vision
Of the All-Wise Wanderer,
The Weaver of Dreams.
On Christmas Eve he fell asleep,
So deep, so deep,
And woke upon Epiphany
With tales to tell
He hurried to the holy Mass
And stood upon the threshold;
The warp and weft of wandering
He wove into his tale.
2. Dreamsong
And this was his dreamsong:
My journey began
In a rugged land,
Hard and fast
And unforgiving.
I made my way.
3. The Bridge
Beads there were,
And wilder things
And shades of nght
Were in that lend;
I was afraid.
The monster's claws
Tore at my cloak
With piercing eyes
They saw my soul
I ran away.
For many leagues
I traveled west
Until at last --
My journey's end --
I saw the Bridge!
Stretching out
Across the sky,
The way was barred
To all but wise.
I went across.
This bridge was spanned
across a sea of ice --
A silver band, a way to Paradise.
A fair wide land did open up at lest;
I stopped to stand where
Future reckons Past.
And in that place the Pilgrim Church did rise
Where, full of grace, our Holy Mother wise
Bade me embrace her head of gold and red;
And o'er her face a loving smile was spread.
I met a man, whose coat was stained in blood,
AI mired was he, up to his knees in mud:
He held a frightened child under his arm,
And bitterly he wept for causing harm.
4. Intermezzo
5. Paradise
She spoke in gentle tone and bade me go
Where ev'ry sin is known,
where cold winds blow,
Unto the very throne of God to see
Where sorrow is unknown,
forgiveness, free.
6. Dominion
And through darkness appeared the Christ,
weathered in light, flanked by saints
and angels beyond number,
and crowned as King and Judge
over all the earth.
The Deceiver turned in fear.
and fled from before the Glory of the
Lord and the Host of Heaven.
Among the souls
Who trembled there
Burdened down
With sin and fear,
I took my place.
To Christ the Judge
St Michael spoke,
Defending us
Despite our shame.
I hung my head.
So one by one
We stood alone
Before our Maker
And our Judge.
He called my name.
His burning heart
Loved away my shame.
And forged my soul
Anew by Grace
I was redeemed!
7. Epilogue
Cloaked all in lead another fell.
Laden with burdens heavy;
She lost her soul in fear of hell
In hope that she might be free.
Others there were by pain ensnared
By their grief and tribulation
Hoping that they may yet be spared
And praying for salvation
He forged their souls
Anew by Grace --
And all were redeemed.
Thanks for posting the lyrics.
Beasts there were. There were not beads. 😁
Thanks so much 😊
This kind of cross over choral music is cool enough even for young people. It's spiritual and deep and positive despite some sadness. I wish I could be in such a choir.
I think this is accurate. Beautiful piece. I love Gjeilo's work!

Almost, The Bridge actually ends at 10:22, then Intermezzo is purely instrumental from 10:22 - 11:32, Paradise begins at 11:32 and ends at 14:44. Everything else is correct. Source: I'm one of the baritones in that crowd up there. ;)
@@andriusgailiunas3307 Thanks! That makes more sense. I only had the list of movements to go off of, and was doing it by ear. I had my students analyze movements from this. It's stunning! What an opportunity for you!
As usual, the Bel Canto Choir Vilnius, show us the way to do it. And lets not forget the wonderful contribution from the Lithuanian Chamber Orchestra.
Another BRILLIANT representation of what human spirit CAN be capable of, thank you kindly!
What a stunning performance of a wonderful piece - thank you Bel Canto Choir and Ola - just gorgeous.
So beautiful! And such amazing intensity by the performers. They will never forget the joy of this performance. Thank you Ola and Vilnius chorus and orchestra. You are all very special.
Je l ai écoutée il y a un an et je redecouvre cette composition...c est toujours un enchantement ! Je suis aux anges !❤
Tout comme Sunrise mass que j adore!
Encore bravo, Ola!
Incredible. I love the fifth movement, Paradise.
Sophia Johnson Paradise is truly captivating
@@matthewboney2857 Definitely!
Beautiful! I was so looking forward to see this performance of the choir together with Ola Gjeilo. I love it!
DCINY was so fun omg
Had the honor of singing with a choir at Carnegie Hall connected to DCINY. Dominion is by far my favorite!

2018? Me too.
Me too. I was in High School at the time.
if you’re talking about 2019, i was there for that!!!
Bonjour à tous et merci pour ce moment de douceur, chaleur, bonheur .MERCI POUCE BON VENT .papy robert.
I sang this piece with my choir (the Maîtrise Sainte Philomène of Haguenau). It was one of the first pieces that i've ever sung and I absolutely loved it. It's an amazing piece and i'd really really like to sing it again. It was already 4 years ago but I sometimes listen to it and i remember almost everthing. Thank you Ola Gjeilo for giving us this masterpiece.
It is also my first time in a choir…: and this is my first piece ever in a choir… i sing in Italy with the polifonici vicentini !! Day 8 of dicember 2021 is our presentation day !! I am very anxious but happy!!
@@katerinakat6209 im sure it Will be amazing ! wish you luck !
Espectacular música celestial. Tiene la capacidad de trascenderte y alegrar el corazón; muy necesario en los tiempos que corren. Gracias Ola por regalarnos el don que tienes.

Same with me! I go to Poway High
Same!! Mt. Carmel 😃
Absolutely stunning! Love it
Again fabulous!! I love this Choir very much!!! Thanks for uploading !! I agree with Steve Mathews ***
So good to hear that not all contemporary music is ugly and dissonant. I didn't think they wrote beautiful music any more. I was wrong.
Check out music by Morten Lauridsen Modern composer-genius
Also, check out Eric Whitacre, another contemporary choral musician.
@@debranelson1987 i love Eric Whitacre's musics as much I love Ola Gjeilo's
Magnifique, céleste ! Bravo
Ola!
OUI ! ! ! Ola GJEILO , c'est toujours sublime ! !
Music which can only flow from the mouth of God!

Beautiful🥺
Very beautiful, Ola🙏
Utterly sublime!
God, I missed this.
Le Dominion, c'est le sommet de l'extase.
what an epic journey, thank you!
I just had a dream with dreamweaver playing in the background
Bravo ❤
You are very good and Gjeilo is a truly genius! My choir sang "The Rose" and "Days of Beauty" with new arrangements, both adapting for mixed choir, with male and female voices and making spectacular videos! We were able to reach the same Gjeilo who was thrilled. Write this in the search: you will surely like them!

why would youtube think we'd want a music video interrupted???
It’s horrible. They want you to buy a no-ads subscription. I’m tempted. This happens SO often it’s so disturbing!😵💫
Unspeakably satisfying. Is the libretto available for reading, and following along?
Only the text doesn't seem to be available, but you can read the words by opening up the sheet music preview here: www.jwpepper.com/Dreamweaver/10850199.item#/submit
Excellent! Bravo! Has "The Bridge" been used as a film theme yet? And if not, why not?! :)
The whole piece is SO dramatic and emotionally evocative, it SHOULD be!😄
Is this a performance by Bel Canto Vilnius and Sofia Vokalensemble? I don't understand the credits. Excellent piece nonetheless! Another great work from Ola Gjeilo and these talented musicians
Just Bel Canto Vilnius on this piece.
🥰🥰🥰🥰
Needed in this time
Actual devil in our midst
De onde é esse coral? Muito bom!
✨🙏🤩🙏🤩🙏🤩🙏🤩✨
