I have been listening to the Fantasia for over half a century, and this is one of the most sensitive performances I have ever heard. Completely wonderful.

I am an old person. I have enjoyed so many performances of this music. Each is unique. This is very worthy. The music is a prayer, this has heart.

I''m getting old and have feared the decline in interest in classical music over the past two decades or so. Indeed, I have felt it might be a dying art. But then I read that Generation Z and younger Millennials have a greater interest in classical music than their parents and I am left with some hope. But hearing young conductors perform and interpret, so well, music I have known for so long - Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla and Tabita Bergland are two examples - and I am reminded that this music, that existed long before me, shall go on long after. I think it is in more than safe hands. Brava and Bravo!

Words fail me here, so...thank you from the Salish Sea, northwestern USA.

Wow! This performance moved me to tears... in a good way 😊 Thank you Tabita and all the musicians for sharing this beautiful experience 👏👏👏🙏

Note the 2nd string section on the rear balcony. This is deliberate, and defined in the score. In fact, this "2nd orchestra" is supposed to be as far away as possible from the primary orchestra. Vaughn-Williams was primarily an organist, and this 2nd orchestra is designed to emulation the Echo or Ethereal division of a large organ. This division is usually located away from the rest of the organ, and is designed to provide a kind of stereo or surround sound effect.

Karen Carpenter is just like sunshine wrapped up in butterscotch soda a kind so very special that only she knew how to make it. Warms the soul, really just purely beautiful. Uncoyables

A stunning, haunting piece of music!

13:53 is my favourite part. Closed it out beautifully, absolutely nailed the landing. The conductor's smile is icing on the cake. Great performance!

I would like to add that the sound quality is wonderful!

Two of the most under rated composers in the world, though centuries separated their lives they are brought together in this piece. This and the Lark ascending are like discovering a small piece of heaven here on earth.

God bless you my girlie... you have brought an old man to tears...

This is wonderful, Maestra Berglund! Wonderful sound as well!

In 1954 my parents my siblings and I moved house and I decided that 6 pieces of music I must remember and this is one of them This is one of the best performances of this work I heard for a long time

1:00 😢❤ Magnifique

The leader's enjoying the performance, and so he should.

Wonderfull Music, string Orchestra and Conductor. Brava Maestra!! Bravi a tutti!!

It is clear that this conductor doesn't need a baton. Her hands are expressive enough. Well done, Maestra Berglund!

Absolutely celestial!

I would this is on a par with Sir John Barbirolli with the London Symphony and the Sinfonia of London--profoundly moving.

Perfect performance. And excellent audio/video work as well. Thank you for sharing this.

Performed amazingly!! 👏👏😮

This is turning into one of my favourites.

Brilliant ! Beyond excellence ! 👏👏👏

Magical performance of this oustanding classic - this is so powerful and inspiring.......

Moved me to tears - thank you.

Sumptuous performance,sound production intricately realised,conducfor and orchestra emotionally invested in bringing to the fore this wonderful work of medieval mystery .

Magnifica interpretacion decia furtwangler que el director tenia que producir un efecto he aqui

exquisite. tears of beauty...

Appreciate your countryside wherever you are as this tune subscribes to and look after it✌️

I grew up listening to all kinds of music, and this piece touches my very heart and soul. My thanks to all who made it possible ❤😊

👏👏👏 Bravo!

I can't not go misty when hear this piece. So melodic, crawl up, ease down, so hard to explain. But perfect. I'm partial to the arrangement by James Judd and the NZ Phil. My first exposure to it. But this one is great.

So gorgeous! Oh, so beautiful!

Wow! I thought that such physically expressive conducting died with Bernstein. Obviously, I was wrong!

I really like this interpretation: RVW's music "breathes", and her tempi allows the music to have that life and breath.

Bravo!!

Outstanding, thank you.

This recording is technically excellent, and I love the articulation of the strings.

Brillant !!!

This is beautiful!

Nicely done .

piękne

An interesting rendition of this piece .

wonderful performance. next time try it 20% slower throughout then 10% faster through the climax. don't let up. like VW says, "in tempo".

O subito o niente

The younger generation likes what it’s parents don’t like.

A little slow
