My high school chamber choir traveled to England to sing with him as our conductor 40+ years ago. A truly exhilarating and spiritual moment.

Does anyone else ever think as they listen to this, that if so many of the people with anger, hurt and disappointment in this world who channel all their energy into wrong and destructive things, listened to this, that the thing that underpins us all - to love and be loved - would be revealed to them, more than any therapist or self-help book could achieve, and they might actually feel some healing. I haven’t articulated it so well here (as I find it hard to do so) but I feel this quite strongly. So many people are looking for fundamental love and acceptance and when I hear this, it just completely envelops me.

I used to teach in High School (Indonesia). I once proposed to my principal that the students who were problematic be sent to the choir practice for the whole year. Although some didn't change their ways after the project, most were reported to have demonstrated at least a slight change of behavior. And to some of them, it really had a lasting impact. That was probably one of the hallmarks of my entire life.. I was inspired by the movie Les Choristes

Your articulation is fine! I use thiis piece daily as a blessing for myself, on awakening. Music, song is one of the sweetest,most powerful gift from God. It is a fast channel to our spiritual self and the other side of life. (Btw, I used to ask that question about John Rutter, then I heard he was recognized for his great work with some title. Must seek that out.)

When I was a freshman in college I had orchestra practice in the same room that the choir rehearsed. We were always there early because there was always a rush to set up. The choir always ended with this song. It was my first introduction to choral music. The first time I heard them sing it I thought that's what heaven must sound like. It still moves my heart to hear it.

This choir actually seems to believe their music, vs. Certain Other Choirs'. Rutter's music is so blessed! He got my dad who claimed he could only sing "four notes" at the deep-base end to join a choir for twenty years before his nerve disease overtook in his 90's after I recorded Rutter's recordings for my beloved parents' cassette tape player (my parents are the beloved, but that cassette player did blast a lot of great music over the years!).
