This was one of the first choral pieces I ever heard that made me cry at the first sounding chord. And the entire piece just continuously was moving. There are excellent choral pieces out there, they have bone chilling moments, and are gorgeous overall, but I still till this day have not found a piece more gorgeous and angelic as this. And as a Catholic, the text speaks ever deeper. And oh goodness your choir just sounds like angels truly saying “Rejoice! The Virgin may has been assumed into heaven!” I’m Proud of the college I go to and what our college accomplishes, but man, performances like this just take music to a new level. This isn’t music making, it’s music living, it’s speech, its embodiment of praise or of love or of some sort of meaning, or even no meaning, it simply is. I can’t wait to be a conductor one day, and I hope I will have a choir who can do this peace! BRAVO!!!!!!
The text in English: “Let us all rejoice in the Lord On this festive day In honor of the blessed Virgin Mary. In whose assumption the Angels rejoice And give praise to the Son of God. Alleluia!”

Beautifull composition, quite good performance!
beautiful music. I'd like to know the text.
The text in English:
“Let us all rejoice in the Lord
On this festive day
In honor of the blessed Virgin Mary.
In whose assumption the Angels rejoice
And give praise to the Son of God.
Alleluia!”
