This song has haunted me since I was a tiny child, I am so thrilled to find it at last.

I sang this in my school choir 40 years ago. So much memories!

Pure bliss - will never tire of this rendition - thank you.

Remember being so mesmerised by this amazing tune, asa a young lad of maybe 7 years of age, still does something for me as I have moved on to over 75 years. Love the choir singing this piece, it is magical.

I know it's not possible but when my time comes and I leave this world - I would love to hear this as I drift away.

my nan died less than a month ago. she sang this song to me as a baby as a lullaby. this song will be played at her funeral in less than 2 days.

The pianist was Mary Butler, the music director was Ted Parr

Been one of my favourite pieces but never heard it like this. Just wonderful.

This song takes me way back to my primary school, years back during the 60s when we used to have radio lessons.

What a masterpiece, never get bored listening to it over and over since the '60s!

A beautiful song beautifully sung. My mum Jean Clark is singing on this as she sang alto with the choir for nearly twenty years in the seventies and eighties . They were very successful and a talented group well led by the choirmaster Ted Parr, winning the Llangollen Eisteddfod one year! A feat they were rightly proud of. Sadly mum died some years ago but we played this song from the recorded album at her funeral it is so peaceful and was very fitting of the occasion it now holds a special memory for me and the family and we listen ad reflect regularly. Thank you for uploading this for many to enjoy also.

@@joannadziwisz8619 Rubbish. This is an English song written by an Englishman, and it is only to be sung in English - not German, Polish or any other guttural language.

I fell in love with this years ago. I did not knw words came with it. Great words.

Why on earth did you not know that this piece came with words? What a moron.

Timeless beauty that haunts the soul until it is captured.🙏❤🌺🎼

Enchantingly beautiful. I have loved this tune since age fifteen when I first heard it in 1957 and love it more with the addition of the words of 'Where The Gentle Avon Flows' sung so beautifully by the Nelson Civic Ladies Choir.

Beautiful! Listening to this fills my heart with joy 🎶 ❤️

I did not know words had been set to this lovely music.

I can't hear this piece, orchestral or vocal, without thinking of my late mother. I was 14 when she died almost sixty years ago but the tune and especially this version, makes her seem very close again.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU I didn't know that this tune had words written to it until recently, and have been looking for the right lyrics to it ever since. VERY SINCERE THANKS MY FRIEND.

A beautiful performance maintaining a feeling of a river flowing smoothly carrying with it a haunting air of mystery. Piano accompaniment excellent.

We sang this song at school, many, many years ago, it was lovely to hear it again, and to read the lyrics

Like a lot of people I have only known the orchestral version of this beautiful music. To hear lyrics and to be sung so beautifully is pure heaven. I am now rapidly approaching my 70th year and so memories are so precious to me. Life was better then it really was.

This beautiful piece lifts you up beyond daily grind.....it touches a special place in your heart....I listen and listen......

What a delight! Thank you so much!

Still the best version ever and has yet to be surpassed.

I have loved this song since I was a small child!! Folks never understood why I couldn't stop listening to it. 😂

This is by far the best rendition of Binge's sweet melody among the many videos of this piece on youtube.

This lovely song used to be played on the radio and performed by the Vienna Boys Choir in the 1950's after the war, so very beautifully sung here too, brings back fond memories of home, thank you so much for this.

Reminds me so much of my mother - she loved the song - although, it was sung in German - and it got played a lot every Sunday for years and years. Great song - and memory!!

Absolutely beautiful,

i love this alot best version i ever heard i'm a child who litens to this kind of music i wish other children would to instead of music with cussing nd bad subject matters

I was 4 1/2 when I started school and every assembly this music was played via a record. I loved it but it always reduced me too tears ! I struggled to try and hide my emotion by discreetly using my cardigan sleeve to dry the tears and runny nose!

How absolutely lovely this post is, I have never heard 'Elizabethan Serenade' sung before... Well done ladies absolutely beautiful... @ddekee33 you have posted a little gem... The very best regards from Wales UK :0)x

A very beautiful rendition ! Thanlks for posting.

i want this played at my funeral.it is most beautiful. ruthy mezzetti

What a wonderful rendition.... Kinda haunting,actually. My grandmothers absolute favorite-she listened on and on .... God bless.

Heavenly voice , beautiful music!!!thank you for sharing

Absolutely my favourite version.haunting sums it up.thank you the nelson ladies choir.

@robertpoet... I always loved the tune.. As a young child I thought it was written for me.. As my name is Elizabeth.. . I turned 75...... Best wishes from Ireland to where ever you are in the world Robert. ❤ God Bless

Lovely music with such beautiful lirics thanks for sharing it.👍👍👍

Lovely song and beautiful performance. Being a piano fan I particularly love the accompaniment.

I love this piece. It sings to my soul.

All parts of this are really nice...still holding up in time.

Beatiful, breathtaking.....

I agree, I searched for ages to find the name and finally found it. I remember it from childhood on the radio and it brought back floods of memories and emotions, how special.

A truly "surreal" pleasure to hear, thank you ladies.

This takes me back to when I was 9 in lower primary school when we sang this and won every choral music competition available then.Amazing stuff.

I listen to Classic FM and heard the instruments many times before. Heard the choir only last night and had to look out for all choirs. Thank you for the lyrics I can now follow the singing!

I can conveniently go to bed with this serenade

Me too but the only thing missing there is my Bonnie fine plump wife! I use to be married more to the Military than I was to the mother of my child - no wonder we ended up going Our Seperate/Serenade Ways!! Sure I would like to get married one day but somehow I doubt that will ever happen perhaps because I'm to set in My ways and equally enjoy - getting that "Kick of Adrenaline" in doing what I'm good at in other words fighting foreign wars - well what else do you expect us former FFL(French Foreign Legionnaires) to do? Us good Contractors/Mercenaries do a Great Job even in awlful places including keeping the "Status Quo" afterall the only thing that counts is "Money in the Bank or in Gold/Silver/Investments". I love this version of Elizabethan Serenade as it depicts everything pure & joyous about Our Society. Makes a change from the "battlefield gunfire, chopper blades, hum of turbo - props or Jet engines but sometimes it takes awhile for our pilots to get our aircraft/rust bucket upto 7000ft sitting on your Helmet(Steel or Kevlar) above that its time for a wee dram & a snooze perhaps? Let us Men Protect Our Women & Kids even from the "Enemy Within" maybe form a Militia of Hardliners that can and will strike at any given time throughout the UK - in other words "Protecting Our Own"??

This takes me back to my youth choir days!! We practiced so much with this song till we got it just right. Thank you

Mmmmmm I still remember it was 1998 .I was in my primary school senior choir.....When we sang it.....Oh sweet memories😊❤️

Just so beautiful

A beautiful piece of music and beautifully sung.

Sounds like a beautiful song that was sang back when England still existed. What a bittersweet thing that I'm listening to it knowing what has happened to the land of my forefathers.

Thank you for this recording of the music which I have never heard again after my childhood. I even didn't know the composers name, just remembered the tune and the title. Now, 50 years later and just after discovering You Tube, the mistery is solved and I am touched. Also the choir-arrangement I like very much. Beautiful!

Great songs never die, not even fade away. This surely is one of them and a beautiful rendition too!

Still the best version on YT

Beautiful

Thumbs up if you were in a choir in primary school and had to sing this song for a competition and place first lol. Awesome song. I was 8 years then and 28 now but it is as beautiful today as it was then. Sweet memories. I have always and will always love this song.

Here I am yet again, listening to the soothing melodies, harmonies and wonderful singing.... *Ahhh bliss* :0)x

So much love for this

Very beautiful music, soothes the soul

Just beautiful

THIS SONG IS A BEAUTIFUL, FOREVER!

I just love it!

Have recorded this tune myself on guitar , but this version and the words bring tears to my eyes . Absolutely heavenly 🇬🇧

Thanks for the great photos of Lake powell and Glen Canyon

Still love it. Wonderful.

So beautiful, thank you!

We have just begun learning this lovely song in our four part choir. This is by far the best recording I have found of it. So sweetly beautiful. Thank you.

I love this song we sang it at the sasce competitions... And my grandmother loves it aloot

I think the best version of the Elisabet Serenade thanks to all vocals,bravo !...

Watched again, listened again and loved so very much yet AGAIN... Lovely indeed, well sung ladies :0)x

This song has so many variations...and this is one of the nicest, to me. Thanx for the words...I`ve always wondered what they were.

Wonderful video in every way I.E. visual, music and the choir. Excellent xx

very beautiful piano playing, exquisite

a lovely piece of music superbly done. well done ladies

Wunderschön!❤

This is just lovely 💖

This music was used for a BBC programme called 'The Silver Sword' set in Poland in WW2 .

Beautifully done

Lovely.I remember this from school in the UK.

just wonderful 👏 love 💘 it's

It is such an emotionally evocative tune of innocent optimistic love.

It's graciously a final phase of the supreme bliss that listen to this masterpiece while reading these splendid words From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun 🇯🇵 where deeply love and respect the Queen

My Mum loved this song

So beautiful ☘️🇮🇪

Bellísima composición.

I agree with Elisabeth Christine Finne. The singing is beautiful, so the piano accompaniment mustn't drown it. I'm trying to play the piano solo arrangement and am struggling to get the right hand repeated double notes to subtly blend in, as this accompanist does.

The river in the picture. Anything less like the River Avon is hard to imagine.

Beautiful.

beautiful singing.

Takes me back to when I was nine and forced to join the school choir 🇿🇦.

Yes, beautiful singing by those ladies. A lesser known fact may be that the lovely air by the great Ronald Binge was set to words by the English poet, Christopher Hassall, sadly departed. I'm a writer and the whole affect on me was that I wrote a short story, a cameo really based on this version (with all acknowledgements of course). It evoked in me a nostalgia and feeling for by-gone times. I suppose that it was romantic really, but what's wrong with a bit of romanticism? - when today we've become so 'sophisticated' that we think those things are 'mushy' and silly. I called it 'Elizabethan Cameo', and I tried to 'get into' the whole theme and music.

wonderful

beautiful

I love the Bohemische Blas Musik version It's incredibly redone and just as relaxing. It can be found on Amazon mp3 app. Beautiful song.

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜❤️🧡💛💚💙💜❤️ Greetings to all of the chorus Elisabeth Hedwig Thessmann from Bayreuth with Mathilde and Sophie

Beautiful. Not a musician, I am an author of novels and short stories. Inspired, I sat down and wrote a 'cameo' based on Ronald Binges great composition, not forgetting of course the poet who wrote the lyrics.

I agree, a wonderful rendition, every bit as haunting as the phantom minstrel himself.

It's an Ear Worm... (Gotcha)
