- The choir of Winchester Cathedral sing In Paradisum from Gabriel Faure's Requiem. The video is taken from a televison broadcast of 1980 so the quality of the video is not brilliant.
Faure’s Requiem is one of the most beautiful, haunting, ethereal, spiritual music ever written. What a wonderful legacy, thank you Gabriel Faure.
Turned on the radio the week after my wife died. Heard this beautiful hymn. The Holy Spirit moves in mysterious ways.
May she rip 😔
Condolence from italy, Eddie.

Indeed He does. Ever our Comforter.
Condolences, Mr. Dunpby. May God bless you.
♥️♥️♥️
One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. I'm manfully fighting back the tears now. Anyone who isn't familiar with the whole of the Faure Requiem should seek it out. There are plenty of versions on here. The work is quite simply divine...
+ComposerInUK I discovered Faure yesterday, I've listened to this and Cantique de Jean Racine. I'm amazed such beautiful music exists. Really interested in finding more!
I totally agree, heard this about forty years ago, it never ever ages, it is not if any time, amen.
Any person who is not moved by this piece, quite simply has no soul.
Filton Kingswood Agreed!
I am a father of two boy's and a grandfather to another but those lovely faces giving their all to that piece makes me think that there may just be chance for this wicked world. I do hope so for the sake of us all.
There's something on this master piece that makes me feel like I'm in other world. I never get tired is this song... It sounds like been in heaven.....
Jesus Alberto Morillo Garcia At the burial the body is carried to the grave and the following is sung: In paradisum deducant te Angeli: in tuo Adventu suscipiant te Martyres, et perducant te in civitatem sanctum Jerusalem. Chorus Angelurum te suscipiat, et cum Lazaro quondam paupere aeternam habeas requiem.
May the Angels lead thee into paradise: may the martyrs receive thee at thy coming and lead thee into the city of Jerusalem. May the choir of
Been looking for the slowest version & this is truly perfect! This is how a soul prays...slow and almost suspended in time...in continuous prayer and love. That is what heaven is.
This, the last movement of Faure's Requiem, was intended by the composer to depict the peace and beauty of the Heavenly afterlife. I don't know any other piece of music so completely successful in this.
This is chanted after the Mass during the procession to the cemetery near the church, or if it is far away probably at the cemetery
I mean the music basically says: congrats, you made all level ups, welcome to heaven, and you suddenly feel like you did a good job
Try Schubert's C Major Quintet - Adagio... Written just before his death. Which is not to deny the magnificence of Faure's 'In Paradisum'
Beautiful rendition of In Paradisum here from the Winchester Cathedral Choir, fabulous!
I could die right now listening to this and still be happy that my 20 years on this earth were enough.
Já disse isso a mim mesmo tantas vezes, ouvindo esta maravilha de Fauré!
Thank you for the sentiment, Johann ... Couldn't have expressed it any better
With a comment like that you deserve a good more 70 or 80 (in good health, of course).
I would love to express the same sentiments but I know Hell shall await me if I died in this moment so, no matter how lovely this moment is, almost like witnessing the Glory of God and his peace, I know that when I die I won't see him if I do not make my peace with him now.
I encountered this at age twenty and had the same reaction. I'm fifty four now; still loving it!
I listened to an old Desert island discs this week with Jeremy Brett. He had this played after the death of his wife. Jeremy is also gone now, but thankyou Jeremy for introducing me to it. May you rest in peace.
Every now and then a piece of music stops you in your tracks and you are not sure when its over if you were breathing for the last few minutes.... beautiful.
Has to be one of the most beautiful pieces of music ive ever heard.
This is so pure and angelic. The faces of those boys are just radiant and innocent. Celestial Choir. 🌲
Touches me every time I listen to it.
This was played at my wedding as i was signing the register , it was played twice and i remember looking around and seeing grown people cry. no words can describe how beautiful this is.
... Wow, nice going, you played funeral music at your wedding.
This was played at my daughters funeral last week as they carried her coffin out of the church I chose it along with my son who was a choirboy when he was little boy
REAAAALLLLY slow performance, but beautifully effective, and the boys' ability to sustain those looooooonnnnngg phrases is simply amazing. It sounds heavenly. So few of those choirs come close to sounding like that today. Thanks for posting this. Interesting and a pleasure to listen to.
It's a Catholic prayer too, hence the Latin.
I'm in a church choir and this is one we are often asked to do for funerals. This arrangement is such a beautiful piece, it really captures the spirit of the prayer.
Very nice. This is traditionally to be sung during the burial I believe so after the actual Mass, is that how it is done when your choir sings it?
@@lordjesuschristhavemercyon3251 We sing it before the burial because there isn't a graveyard where services can be properly held.

Superb. Quality excellent. Hard to believe but those boys ste now probably in their 40s with children of their own at a similar age. No doubt they have achieved well in life too. Thanks again.
what a serenely slow tempo - i wouldn't want to ever hear it any other way - makes it sound even more beautiful
Angelic, inspiring, and jubilating. Faure would truly be pleased.
Beauty is God given. Jesus became man. The physical is not to be denied. I was just posing a question. Human beauty is a reflection of God's perfection.
I listened to this on Classic FM not too long ago whilst driving home from work and it was so relaxing, its a very emotional song, and I loved it,
What memories, memorable recording I think is one of the best recordings of this exquisite catholic cantata (requiem mass) thank you for uploading it to CZcams 😊
One could say the voices of heavenly angels!
It's kids singing this - boys, no less, and they're into it, one can tell. It must be wonderful to be able to participate in something like this.
I’m not fully religious but sang this in school when I was a kid, listening to this recently I feel closer to God, whoever he may be?!
Transcendent. My God! This is beautiful. ♫ Thank you for posting this.
Divinely inspired from deep in the soul-beautiful , beautiful ,I played it at my mothers funeral which was just right for it is rare to find someone with so much selfless love as she had. Rest in peace with the angels of love to look over you ,you dear soul mum
Beautiful. In Paradisum deductant Angeli...
Brings back Memories of Singing this in St Botolph outside Bishopsgate London
Beautifully Sung by the Choir
A balm to the soul
come si può scrivere qualcosa di così bello????? coglie la mestizia di un momento cruciale e riesce a portare luce e speranza in un momento così triste ...
Angelic and heavenly when sung by Cathedral boys choirs in the Anglican tradition. 6/18/2019
I love the tempo that the director decided for this absolutely beautiful piece of choral music.
The tempo allowed me to savor every delicious moment of this piece.
"Hats off".
This song tells me what was waiting for my nieces and sister.cousin on and on ..they all are there
I want music like this played in my funeral. 🙂
Reynaldo Cardenas have said the same.
Wow I always hear this and it is the first time where technically if this is the requiem composition is the one for your requiem mass the request shall be fulfilled.
I think I'm going to assign whatever it takes from whatever money there is when I die to make sure an excellent boy choir sings this at my funeral. The rest of what's left over goes to the charitable services of their church.
@@worldnotworld Wonderful.
Been 5 years, ya dead yet?
this is what paradise sounds like. beautiful. timeless.
Simply Divine, love it, first came across this as a signature tune to a BBC programme many many moons ago, love it so much...
One of the most beautiful pieces of music I have ever heard. I know it might sound a bipod but I am going to have this piece of music fr my funeral. Who cant be moved by this. I just love listening to it.
In paradisum deducant te angeli
In tuo adventu
Suscipiant te martyres
Et perducant te
In civitatem sanctam Jerusalem
Chorus angelorum te suscipiat
Et cum Lazaro quondam paupere
Aeternam habeas requiem
May the angels lead you into paradise
May the martyrs receive you
In your coming
And may they guide you
Into the holy city, Jerusalem
May the chorus of angels receive you
And with Lazarus once poor
May you have eternal rest
What an outstanding piece of work 👏
Should mention that this BBC production carried marvellous commentary introducing this placidly beautiful work and between each section, delivered so tastefully by the late John Gielgud. It added greatly to the excellence of the production -- without in any way detroying the continuity of this superb performance. Too bad the entire performance -- including the commentary -- isn't available on youtube.
beautiful
SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE THIS PIECE OF MUSIC ❤
Che dire, semplicemente fantastici!
that was fantastic!!
I know not the words...
but I can say in confidence, it's just great!!
Beautiful and uplifting.
simply divine... It will be hard to listen to other choirs from now on... ;)
Fantastic !
Exquisite....absolutely beautiful...
Fauré reached into his soul and wrote the music of all things glorious.
Heaven on earth ...
Beautiful
Traductions au début
Que les anges te conduisent au paradis,que les martyrs t'accueillent à ton arrivée et t'introduisent dans la Jérusalem du ciel.Que les anges en choeur te reçoivent et que tu jouisse du repos éternel avec celui qui fut le pauvre Lazare.......
Quelle émotion c'est magnifique,il m'arrive de l'écouter en boucle cette musique des anges
Merci
Glorious, heavenly piece of music, the boys sound like angels!
Van kerk naar begraaf-plaats deze mooie muziek gezongen in buiten lucht je voeld de ziel naar de hemel varen ,mooi hoor .
Part of this song was featured in the 1998 film by Terrence Malik, The Thin Red Line.
I love their ruff! Magnficent performance of the Winchester Cathedral Choir! Thanks this superb video.
Sublime interpretación. Felicitaciones a quien subió este video. Muchas Gracias, desde Chile. San Vicente de Tagua Tagua

Requiem In Pace.
Here are the words following the Ancient Orthodox hymn-prayer: "May angels lead you into paradise; ..may the martyrs receive you and lead you to the holy city of Jerusalem. May the ranks of angels receive you, and with Lazarus, once a poor man, may you have eternal rest." All souls of the righteous are in Abraham's "bosom" until the Resurrections of the body- when we will receive our reward in our full human nature!
Judith Irene Matta thank you
So beautiful...
The quality is fine, thanks for posting, Faure's best tune.
Just Listen and all you will have is nice thoughts...........
Amazing and heavenly!
Quanta dignità nei volti che esprimono con arte il senso altissimo delle parole!
How beautiful!
Amazing
Beautiful!
Hermoso y sublime.
if there is a heaven this piece is it
DIVINO.
Escuchadlo, es maravilloso.
“Salvation is here. The answer to infection is here. If you can hear this, you're not alone..”
Eccleston
Magnificent.
Thanks for posting!
Wonderful!
they look to be miming the song. I see a few boys break away from singing before it's complete, then I didn't notice the adults stuck in the Rafters singing also. Beautiful song though. They were being primed for Oxford or Cambridge
thank you
Magnificent
No! it is brilliant. At 80s was recorded and sounds of trebles are like of angles.
Ich liebe es. Es ist wunderbar . Große Leistung
Heidrun Hoffie-Ma
Magnificent, thanks, some boys look like so 80's!

Este foi o Requiém,de Fauré ,que foi cantado em
PedrogãoGrande,em homenagem às vítimas dos incendios.
slowest version I've heard but v nice
+fish fingers Queste sono le voci angeliche che udiremo in Paradiso
when heard this version i then looked how old it was i relised all thease boys voices have gone now , so sad !
In paradisum deducant te Angeli; in tuo adventu suscipiant te martyres, et perducant te in civitatem sanctam Ierusalem. Chorus angelorum te suscipiat, et cum Lazaro quondam paupere æternam habeas requiem.
May angels lead you into paradise; upon your arrival, may the martyrs receive you and lead you to the holy city of Jerusalem. May the ranks of angels receive you, and with Lazarus, the poor man, may you have eternal rest.
Are clouds too slow? Is the flight of a dove circling its nest too slow? Is heaven too slow?
Very beautifull .... Also the "vintage" video. ( 4/3 is the most spiritual, so near God ).
❤❤
@alentejaneiro I find this particular rendition a touch too slow also. The secret is to make it beautiful, regal and magnificent without allowing it to drag. Also, I had to look away from the screen because the sound and the image are not matched up.... !
In a modern world in which religion is increasingly taking on the characteristic of being the source of untrammeled violence and bigotry, it is wonderful to see that occasionally it can be the source of something beautiful and peaceful.
I am not Catholic or even Christian but I hope that when I die I will be hearing something like this.
+Partnerfrance Someone who appreciates such beauty can't be far from the Kingdom of God. For He is not far from any of us. Jesus said to the thief, on the cross next to his, who called him Lord, today You will be with me in paradise.
lovely comment,
Become a baptized Catholic, confess your sins, follow Jesus Christ our Lord, and be in a state of grace when you die... then you can go to heaven. 😇 🙏
I think you forgot to add the word 'a' before the word 'religion.'
Genial performance !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This may be the same Paradisum that was sung at the end of the funeral Mass for Robert F. Kennedy at Saint Patrick's Cathedral, NYC on June 8, 1968.
yes it is. I'll never forget it. Followed immediately, without a pause, by the Hallelujah chorus. Wrecked my soul.
28 Days Later...
Video quality may not be brilliant. Singing is.
It would have been interesting to listen to this performance in the space between the orchestra and the choir. They are really quite far apart!
Wow! 1980's video quality be d@mned. This is a truly transcendent piece of music and performance. For those of you who may have been weened upon the more banal examples of popular culture note the absence of sampling. No appropriation of anothers work, no overwhelming thumpthumpthump of the sub-woofer or superficial urban angst.
This what one gets when work, craft and expression intersect.
It's called "Art".
And the angels sang to hin,
Da brivido 😪😪😪
