May his memory be for a blessing. I lost my mother five months ago. Coincidentally my teenager had sung this (the top soprano part) just a few months before.

Thank you for sharing this quote Caryn. I would love to include it in my mother's funeral order of service, but I think it best to keep it for my own personal meaning, as it really captures so much about my relationship with my mother.

This was the recording that introduced me to VOCES8 as I searched for a version of Nimrod. I have been following VOCES8 ever since and I keep coming back to this recording. It is utterly sublime and so moving. It would be one of my Desert Island Discs - if I am ever famous enough to be invited onto the programme!! 😏

What a pleasure to hear this arrangement, I'm obviously aware of the verison played on Remberance Sunday, but to hear words put to the music is thrilling and so so moving. I also appreciated the touching Comments. Perfect & Thank you and peace to you all.

As intimate and intense as "Nimrod" is in the orchestral version, the intensity is magnified and focused by an octet of choral voices. As of that weren't enough, the text of the prayer "Lux Aeterna" from the Latin Requiem Mass further sharpens the impact. This is powerfully unbearable in the very best of ways. Samuel Barber's "Adagio" treated similarly is on a par with this. This music and sound is almost too beauiful.
