    What a joy to find this recording, free from the ground hum and photographers flashes that plagued the royal wedding broadcast. Simply the most moving piece of music I have, or am ever likely to, heard.

    I like this version even better than the wedding-version.
    This one is so soft, like flowing water. Incredibly beautiful.

    I’m an atheist but this piece of music, well perhaps there’s something within us, illuminated by something higher.

      Go to a catholic adoration chapel its silent. Go one hour a week close your eyes try not to think. Do that 4 weeks in a row.
      There have been atheists since the time of Christ. Fyi the strongest and most powerful conversion have been from avowed atheists.

    Thursday, the Christian church celebrates two great symbols from the Maundy Thursday service, which are pillars of Christianity -- the Washing of the Feet and the Last Supper. During the Washing of the Feet, the music is often set to the beautiful text of Ubi Caritas et Amor: Where charity and love are, God is there. Featured are three a capella settings.

    it is impossible for me to listen to this without closing my eyes and breathing a deep sigh. Truly, this piece is the definition of "sublime". I look forward to your future compositions. :) And I'm so excited to be attending a performance of this piece for my birthday (performed by the Los Angeles Master Chorale).

    (If you like this - try Vytautus Miskinis's "Time is endless") Beautiful. Proud to be British too. Imagine kneeling at the altar with this behind you...it would have sent chills down the spine. On an unrelated point - even atheists get transcendant sometimes...and modern choral music does it for me. Wonderful. Truly inspiring and interesting to contrast with the version "Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal".

    I love Whitacre "signature" but these are beautiful composition... and how could I not like a composer who loves bass voices so much ! just a little thing: I hear a lot of magnificent compositions, but it would be nice to have more dynamic and happy compositions too. Thank to the composer and to the choir for this wonderfull work.

    It's not a phone backlight. There was at least one photographer taking pictures presumably for press/publicity. As the concert was almost completely lit by candle light, the photographers were using the focus assist lights on their cameras. It's a brief burst from one of those that appears at 2:20. There are a few other points in the the concert where they appear too. For some reason the video cameras resolve them as blue/violet rather than the red that they appear to the naked eye.

    I first heard this piece at the royal wedding in April 2011! It is one of the most beautiful "Ubi Caritas" I `ve heard so far! But I am a little disappointed by the solo! Although it is a kid and all the live atmosphere is making him nervous! Compared to the stage and the audience at the royal wedding....

      Yes, it is. His name is Thomas Featherstonhaugh...or Fetherstonhaugh. (I've seen both spellings.) His appearance has matured a bit here; this was about 6 months after the Royal Wedding. He seems like a great kid!

    @eztobeme 10 років тому

    So you would sing "Aw Magnum Mysterium"? No, I don't think so. I think it's a case that it's more difficult to properly eunciate the O. Some in my choir also have difficutly with enunciating a good Latin "I". It comes across as "ih" rather than "ee".

      c#, a bit sharp tho. Last two "a-men"s got that (optional) note for second basses in score. We just started to learn this song in our choir, we're 4 second basses (no profondo). It must be quite a funny sight watching us concentrating to keep that note "ringing", luckily is pianissimo :)
