They are Magnificent

Love this Masterpiece! Great Orchestra 😎

Great job. I think THIS is the perfect tempo. Not a circus screamer OR a slow love ballad.

@HPUMusicDept, I just came across this video; thanks for sharing it! It's always great to hear one of my arrangements performed. Your group sounds quite nice! Best wishes to all of you.

Amazing rendition! My best congratulations.

SubhanaAllah ❤❤❤

The lyric mean they deny all God except Allah and prophet Muhammad is true messenger of Allah

It was an absolute joy to perform this. Bravo to Bob Campbell, 1st horn. You nailed that opening solo. 👏🏻👏🏻

Amazing jikr subhanallah.

lailahaillallah: there is no god but Allah

Love it!!!

I sang this for my District Concert along with Requiem and Joshua

Very powerful ❤

Que belleza! Allah is Great!

Allahu Akbar beutiful

Espetacular. Parabens

This sounds like classical trying to sing jazz. Sure the pitches are right, but is the style really there?

Gorgeous!

Beautiful. Thanks!

This lovely, professional-level performance of “Awakening” far exceeded my expectations of a university orchestra. In fact, next to my own recording with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in London, it stands out as the finest public performance of this work to date. My sincere thanks and congratulations to the entire orchestra for all the care required to perform “Awakening” to such a level that it would bring me to tears of joy. Special thanks to the trumpet soloist for such a pro-level performance (lovely sound); the oboe and English horn players for playing their parts with the heart that was intended; the French horn section for their soulful performance; the concertmaster for leading the string section so well, and the percussion section for keeping the syncopated figures in “Joy” rock-solid. But the lion’s share of my gratitude goes to Dr. Brian Meixner, for without his sensitivity, intelligence, intuition, and great skill as a conductor, such an accurate and high-level performance of “Awakening” would have most likely been impossible. It takes someone with a heart of gold to be able to bring about a moving performance like this. Though we have never met, and I feel quite sure he’s never seen me conduct “Awakening”, it seemed a bit supernatural how many of his musical gestures reminded me of my own (he even wore a jacket similar to mine). 🙂He must have reached deep into the collective unconscious for his inspired performance. Special moments like this do happen occasionally. Once again, I’m grateful to all of you who performed “Awakening” so beautifully. Wishing you further success, good health, and happiness. With gratitude and best wishes, Dr. Joseph Curiale

beautiful!

WOW....

Hu Allah or Allah hu are the 2 words with are called zikr to be clear.

The choir does a lovely job, and piano accompaniment just doesn't cut it on this anthem. It needs the organ!!

It's a bit precious Id rather hear them do other literature Clearly well trained singers though

Really enjoyed listening to her flawless performance! Brava!!!

Just wonderful, so musically rich and full of beauty

Oh wow I didn’t know Mon Mothma from the rebel alliance was also a choir director. Impressive!

It is beautiful. But it is missing the breath in the music. It feels a little stiff. But over all very nice.

I am getting ready to work this piece with a Community Orchestra and have enjoyed hearing it conducted! Good players, great intonation and interpretation.

Hepimiz kardeşiz,dinimiz,dilimiz,ırkımız ne olursa olsun.Bizi seviyorum 🌷
