This is the most beautiful thing that I have ever heard. Especially when the singer is completely alone. I cry every time I listen to this. Hard to believe that a mortal could create such beautiful music. I almost can't believe it myself. The soprano is something that could only have been created by God himself. Thank you Mozart - I don't know where we would be without you.

Beautiful comment that translate exactly my thoughts..

R.I.P. Arleen, we'll never forget you!

Mozart truly had a direct telephone line to God the father. This is the music I expect to hear when I enter heaven.

Not really, despite all of his art, he died in the most bad conditions you can imagine, common grave etc... Not respectful, not matching with his creative genius. Mozart "the great".

At the time of this recording, Arleen Auger was undergoing chemotherapy for a brain tumor and passed away shortly afterwards. This has to be the best version of the Kyrie ever recorded . Truly inspiring.

Not at the time of this recording. She was diagnosed with brain cancer in February 1992. This was 1990.

Of all of Mozart's works this one every single time raises the hackles of my spine, makes my hair stand on end and fill my eyes with tears. EVERY SINGLE TIME. This opening Kyrie is in my opinion the greatest single piece of music in any medium. It will never be surpassed.

Bliss. That is immortality. 😊❤️‍🔥

Mozart es la cúspide de la belleza. Su música es lo más cercano a Dios que hay bajo mi punto de vista.❤

Thank you Mozart, for your 35 yrs in this planet.

In my opinion this solo of soprano is the most beautiful ever written, I cry every time I listen to it!

This greatest of sopranos in sacred works singing like an angel here.....she's with the Good Lord in heaven.RIP.

The piece has been performed by many very well indeed. But this right here is the definitive iconic reference performance of Kyrie/K427. Immutable; unspeakable; immortal.

How does this not have 40 million views.

The most beautiful and heavenly singing ever.

God what a double sadness Arlene Auger, and Maestro Bernstein conducting this already stricken with cancer, Two of the most beautiful musicians ever to walk the earth the like never to be seen again R.I.P.

After hearing mozart really few pieces of modern music are still enjoyable.

Este es uno de los mayores momentos de toda la historia musical. Mozart,escapa aqui de lo humano y su musica se hace celestial y sobrenatural.

The only slight slight slight criticism I would have offered LB here is that the tempo is dragging a little. This piece catches air when it's maybe 5% faster. It just sounds a tiny bit ponderous when done this slowly.

I believe we are not worthy to even comprehend the genius of Mozart. Absolutely sublime

Lenny and Wolfie! Glorius!

Auger is spot on with the rendition. Absolutely perfect frankly.

Sometimes, we get a glimpse of Heaven - as this performance by Mozart, Bernstein & Arlen Auger. They still live and reminds us how great God is. Heavenly!

It is a bit sad that i will never be able to thank Milos Forman and my dad enough for introducing me to this heavenly masterpiece. I've been delighted by it for over a decade now and not a single time has it failed to enthrall me into the realm of the sublime.

One of the finest sopranos I´ve heard doing this amazing piece. Beautiful.

Understatement of the year. The delicacy and refinement and power of her voice is unmatched to this day, in my opinion.

5:55 I drop my 7-11 nachos in slow motion.

Mozart here wrote such a beautiful, soaring melody for the [mezzo] soprano voice - it does everything to highlight the unique beauty of the human voice and how it can touch the eternal. Mozart in music was an angel incarnate.

Wow this has to be the best version I've ever heard too.

I'm crying like an idiot...What a beauty!!!

Arleen Auger---What a beautiful soul--i indeed love this arrangement--unlike any requiem --so touching. bless your spirit Arleen Auger--long live Arleen!!!!

Yes it’s 2021 and I’m still listening to this most glorious opera song by the beautiful Arleen Auger 😊

Absolutely beautiful! It brings tears to one's eyes.

I agree of all his compositions this one fills my eyes with tears every single time. This Kyrie in my opinion will never be matched my anyone ever. Period. My favorite of all his works.

Absolute beauty!

I have never listen music with so much love, compassion. When I hear this music I understand the love of God and that he will forgive all sins of humanity

Wow unbelievable she is the only one....no one has topped her in singing this most beautiful requiem! Absolutely magnificent sends goosebumps up my spine 2020! RiP Ms Arlene Auger🙏🏾

Magnífico !!!

I discovered this masterpiece in salzburg in a live performance two years ago this is divine music and this version is one of the best I found thnx for uploading

Absolute perfection... thanks, Wolfgang, Auger, Bernstein... the world is better now, we are better now And now, no more words... silence... here is the hand of God.

Magnifique. C'est l'élévation du corps et de l'esprit.

No, esto no es casualidad... no es sólo obra de un genio ¡Cuánta civilización, cuanta sabiduría concentrada en 8 minutos! Sólo 2.000 años de cultura grecorromana, pasando por otros 2.000 años de cultura occidental, pueden llevar a esto... Kyrie eleison... ¡Señor, ten piedad! Sí, podemos estar seguros.... el Señor no puede hacer oídos sordos a una petición hecha de esta manera.

Mozart wrote this for his wedding. His bride Constanze sang the solo at the premiere. So it is no surprise that this is his single greatest composition. The opening showcases the greatest instrument of all. the human voice.

This music is divine, purity and beauty!!!

Majestuosa pieza, con amor reverente le brota como miel a la mezosoprano el nombre del señor. Mozart un mortal se le revelo en su corazon la majestad con que los angeles alaban en el cielo el nombre de Cristo, todo don perfecto proviene del señor, no habra otro Mozart.

Bernstein, Auger, von Stade, in one performance!! All my favorite artists.

She is absolutely perfect for this MOST incredible piece of music! K427 is one of the world's most transporting, inspired masterpieces and this opening section may be its pinnacle. Bernstein's tempo seemed a little on the slow side at first, rather heavy-handed, but Auger filled every moment with her full lyric sound, yet with that incredible detailed filigree. I'll sleep in peace tonight!

heavenly divine--i love arleen auger's voice--relaxing indeed

"When the angels sing for god the Sing Bach, but when they sing for themselves they Sing Mozart....and even God himself is Mesmerized"

this song is a heaven sent.

UNA MUSICA CELESTIALE, CHE TOCCA IL CUORE ❤️❤️🤩💔

Wow. I would not have believed, amid such pageantry and beauty, that a soloist could actually outshine all of it. What an incredible singer. And Lenny looked like God Almighty creating heaven and earth up there. What a performance.

The 4 dislikes are from the Court composer Antonio Salieri, the Kapeilmaster Bonno, the Oprea Direktor, and of course Salzburg's Prince-Archbishop

Auger's voice is beyond description au dela

OMFG this soprano is... i can't communicate with my own words what i'm feeling now

No doubt... Arleen is now singing in heaven... to teach the angels how to do it!

So AMAZINGLY lovely! *especially* love the love the low Bb and Ab 😊 And the leap of the 6th right before she is done is Freakin Awesome!!! 😎😎😎

Divina conexão com Deus, com bela interpretação do soprano, maravilhoso!!!

La voz de dios...

This is one of best compositions of Mozart. One of his top 10, in my opinion. I did a arrangement for one piano from the conductor score of this Kyrie. It's a Mozart's spectacular work.

i must comment on this again an again --Auger and that voice is tremendously great together along with mozart.--fantastic!!!!!!!!!!

Well....that raised the bar. Good luck topping that.

Arleen Auger, the very definision of quality

Heaven must be something similar to this place, with this sound and with this joy.

Minha Nossa Sra de Aparecida, que magnífico! Que energia foi emanada desse concerto em específico. Tudo está conectado. A igreja em si , todos os adornos e estrutura. Tudo , mas tudo tem um significado em comum . Obrigado meu senhor Jesus por me presentear com tamanha benção 🙌

excellente interprétation de Mme Auger. Une voix mozartienne, tout comme l'est aussi Kathleen Battle (voir Agnus dei dirigée par Karajan et avec Battle... magnifique!)

if the heart ever knew pain, suffering and joy..it was Mozart..listen people, put a side everything for a moment and equate it to your trials...not the Gods before them...

A música vinda diretamente do céu.

''Surge en el entramado de sus meticulosos trazos la más absoluta belleza''.

this is the more biggest step in music the connection with heaven. is simply perfect and magnificent. i love it

Ez gyönyörű!! ❤️❤️❤️

so universal......................beautiful!

Κύριε Ελέησον!!!

God truly lived through this man.

strange, i've heard his requiem dozens of times, and this is just as powerful in my opinion, yet it's the first time i hear this. MOZART FOREVER

in questa Messa Bernstein non lo trovo impeccabile...il Kyrie è troppo lento, trascinato quasi. I soprani non sono all'altezza del compito sia per tecnica che per intenzione...a tratti inascoltabili

Wunderbare Arleen Auger, wunderbarer Leonard Bernstein!

This is what Mozart had in mind.

This music is what God's voice sound like.

Fascinating soprano! :))

Perfect.

Increíblemente bello.

Two TITANS performing the symbol of 'GLORY!' One reached his sublime soul to feel the serenity and the beauty of GOD, while the other sends the message by interpreting a Sonorous and Majestic Rendition!

Wholly uplifting !!!

simplemente, espectacular

I agree! This belongs definitely to my top 10 of favourite Mozart pieces. I can recommend the version by Herreweghe (harmonia mundi) however, absolutely the TOP performance by far i.m.o.! Perfect balance and lucidity in all parts.

if i could vote a hundredth time, i would.....so beautiful!!! :))

@Verticaldiscourse I cannot comprehend how a human being could live without this

Great music for christmas joy!

I don't know what to do with this. Adding it to my favorites isn't enough.

saludos, genial!!!!!

Thanks Dad😢

Gracias, genio!

very well put.

Milagroso

What a beautiful, Her voice reminds me of an opera singer i know. Such immense Beauty in such voices tas that of Arleen Aguer and Others! (: What amazing talent. I hope to be just like her! (:

Now I realize with no doubt that I hear the voice of God ♥

Com Deus em perspectiva coisas grandiosas são realizadas. Excelente!!!

A little explanation to understand better such a great composition: Kyrie Eleison are Greek words for "Lord have mercy upon us". In the Catholic mass these words are said 3 times: one for the Lord Father (the firts Kyrie Eleison), another for the Lord Son (Christe Eleison), and the last one for the Lord Holly Spirit. Note how the music change every time the pray change of Lord. Hope my English had been enough clear for this explanation. GBY all!
