Winchester Cathedral Choir - Still Still Still

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !!! Thank you for share !!!

Vanderflash, this lovely arrangement is apparently by Mack Wilberg. This is according to the BBC website.

Mack Wilberg has really transformed this piece with his arrangement. It's stunning...

I prefere it in German but this is still very good

Absolutely stunning-moves the Spirit.

Wonderful interpretation of a beautiful Austrian carol.I have sung this carol in a small community choir many years ago.I simply thought there was not much better music than that carol.

Oh, wie ich die Engländer liebe! Man muss nur an die Proms denken. Wer auf der ganzen Welt bekommt so etwas fertig?......Ich finde jetzt keine Worte für dieses wunderschöne Lied und DIESE! Interpretation, ich geniesse einfach nur und sage Danke!!!

it seems a bit 'fast'.

And out of the darkness there rose a light, illuminating the deepest corner of the human heart.
This Mack Wilberg arrangement achieves a tenderness that is profoundly beautiful.
2018 update: I return again to hear this great song in the darkest time of the year, reassured that some things never get old, never lose their beauty.

Richer notes of Christmas spring from all cultures and perdure through time and space.

Best sung a cappella and without this slushy orchestral accompaniment - or the descant. It's a simple Christmas cradle song! Predictably, the Vienna Boys Choir know how to sing it.

I admire these boys to have an opportunity to sing in a cathedral choir.  It teaches them what is meant by sublimity & harmony in life.

One of the loveliest of Christmas Carols With reverence sung Thank You

Mack Wilberg (MTC) arrangement, beautifully performed. Lovely to hear in German.

Beautiful!

I sang this song with my choir in college way back in the 80s. This version is so beautiful it is bringing tears to my eyes.

Stunningly beautiful

The string arrangement is exquisite. I just wish the singers heard and appreciated that. It's like two different performances on top of eachother. The strings make me weep, truly.

Amazing!! Praise be to the newborn King!

Beautiful rendition. Thank you Winchester.

Armonizzazione bellissima....

Strings too loud.

Xmas 2021.
Wishing you all a very happy and peaceful Christmas.
Amen.
🙏🙏🎄

Such a beautiful carol, sung by one of the best cathedral choirs, thank you for this heavenly peaceful music, happy Christmas

Just hate it when the music drowns our beautiful voices.

LYRICS

Anybody have the lyrics? Beautiful! Wunderschon!

This reminds me of a dream I had one time. I was flying really high and it took me a very long time to get there somebody was leading me and I kept wondering, when are we going to get there, this is really far and then finally I heard a lot of fluttering of wings as we were entering a building and we were all squashed in there at the top and since I was one of the first in, I was at the very top and couldn't see anything. Then I realized we were all angels at the nativity, the birth of Yeshua our savior and we were singing to him. It was a very touching dream that I'll never forget.

Lyrics I used to think it was partly in German but it was just their accent.
Still still still
Let all the earth be still
For Mary in her arms enfolding
Hope of all the world is holding
Still still still
Let all the earth be still
Sing sing sing
Sweet angel voices sing
While Jesus lies in manger dreaming
Seraph choirs from heaven are streaming
Sing sing sing
Sweet angel voices sing
Light light light
Let all the earth be light
The holy star its news ablazing
Sign of hope for nations raising
Light light light
Let all the earth be light
Sleep holy Jesus sleep
