Apart from the beautiful rendition, two things which I also noticed, the love in a mother's face for her youngster, and the guy wiping a tear from his eye, that's what music can do..............
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST CHOIR PERFORMANCES, I'VE HEARD IN MY WHOLE LIFE!!!
We’re learning this in choir next week so I came to KZread for reference and my gosh I’m glad I stumbled upon this. Absolute blubbering mess. Beautiful 🥹💖
Superb. Beautiful harmonies, and all done in acapella. The testament to a wonderful choir.
This is a very Beautiful song, it was in the repatoir of the male voice choir I used to sing in.
Oh I’m a blubbering mess. Thank you so much for posting this. Absolutely exquisite. Such mindful attention to depth, dynamic, color, language, love...and those things that cannot be described in words, only in the feelings we get when experiencing a masterful performance like this. Truly a solar system of magnificence. I’m so moved.

Stunning! Hope to do this with our choir this year!
This choir sings anthem beautifullly so perfect I love this its sensational , so lovely to listen too
Oh wow ... this has always been my most favourite song from "Chess" - I had the recording on cassette long before it became a stage musical, and remember seeing Tommy Körberg performing it live when "Chess" was played at the Prince Edward theatre in London ... it has always moved me, but until now, I never quite got to crying tears ... and this was the time. A stunning performance.
This is SO beautiful. Already a great song, and you have absolutely made it your own. I'm in tears. Thank you for this! x

This song always reduces me to a weeping mess, and never more so than now, in the autumn of 2020.
I just love this - play it so often. Do you have a recording out?
I am going to sing this song if the pandemic is over!
WHERE would i start
Fabulous, I gives one tingles all over to be sure. My one quibble, why are the grace-notes quantized into full notes? I felt that they were somewhat fundamental to the structure of the composition.
Grand ! . Wonderful . where can i buy the arrangement ?
Lovely rendition! Would you kindly let me know where to find this sheet music? Thank you, Jeanne

Simply stunning! Can I purchase this arrangement please?
Very well written and performed ! I found on internet the score by Anders Eljas but it doesn't really match the arrangement on this video. It looks like if they sing the piano part. If someone could help me to find the right score which is sang here please ! Most appreciate for my own choir !
my high school choir has to sing this but in a different arrangement where the sopranos go much higher than that (i’m a soprano) and i think i’m gonna die. don’t know why i had to say that but i did. that was beautiful though!
Anthem
why 2 hands?
Absolutely beautiful, but could be slightly quicker tempo
ITS A TRUE SONG FOR THE WAR IN UKRAINE
Beautiful singing - but I found the Musical Director's arm waving distracting. No doubt she deserves some credit for the performance, but it should be the wonderful voices of the singers that get that rather than her theatrical arm waving. Sorry. Back to wonderful choir performance. I really enjoyed listening to the choir.
The Soprano Dominates _ I would like to hear more from the Bass _ imbalanced

What a bravura performance, and a lack lustre audience, in Australia we show more appreciation. for artistes/ Rosanna
