There is unreachable and untouchable beauty with this piece. It's like pure magic in this soloists rendition. I felt various emotions: pain, beauty, joy and sorrow and it was such a pleasant listen that it felt "otherwordly", like I was embraced by angels and the brought to heaven to see it's magnificent glory by god and jesus... I felt emotion and cry in this piece. Thank you Messaien for this pleasent experience with colours of tonal boundaries between dissonance and consonance at the same time. 😌
Conflicting emotions after again watching/listening to this exquisite performance: I never need to sing this piece again and I cannot wait to sing this piece again. Thank you for both!
🥰 Absolutely stunning, thank you ALL for such a magical rendition of Messiaen's masterpiece. It is indeed such a joy to sing this piece with my choir friends, but you all blew me away🥰 Bravo! 👏🏼
I keep coming back to this: a balm in times of troubled spirit, a reassurance in humanity, a beautifully modulated climax, an abiding, intensely quiet tenderness. Thank you.
Very nice job! So difficult to sing in key for these chords... Wonderful voices and timbers. I would prefer less vibrato, slower tempo (difficult for 1 per voice) and above all a more flat phrasing, like violins. Just listen to Quatuor pour la fin du temps or Turangaglila symphony. Nevertheless, congratulations for this recording

Wow! Stunning! And yes, the soprano’s voice is stunning! Indeed, all the voices are wonderful!

Hello Steve!!! :D Did we do this with KCS? It sounds so familiar I can't remember when I've sung it though xxxx
Hello, Natalie. I don't think I've sung this, though I'd love to.@@rainbowcrystaluk
The timbre of their voices is so crisp... I love it
A wonderful performance of a very tricky piece - I seldom hear it done by just 4 singers. I must say I think the soprano is absolutely exceptional!
I looked at the timing of this clip and thought, too fast. But no, it works. Brilliant.
Exquisitely done. Bravo! Olivier would be well pleased.
beautiful performance of this exquisite masterpiece
Takes your breath away!!
Thank you.
Great performance of a difficult piece.
C'est magnifique, merci beaucoup!
Merci de votre écoute!
Wow! Beautiful!

It's music for adults! That is what is going on. ; )

My favourite halleluiah of all time
O sacrum convivium!
in quo Christus sumitur:
recolitur memoria passionis ejus:
mens impletur gratia:
et futurae gloriae nobis pignus datur.
Alleluia
Nothing on spotify?
Not yet! Hopefully someday! Some of our individual members have tracks on Spotify.

Hmmm. Perhaps I need to give Messiaen another try.
Note: cut the 'operatic' vibrato (soprano, who otherwise has a beautiful voice) and you have a well-sung piece.
