Solo Violin: Mari Samuelsen Piano: Max Richter Mercy, written ten years ago for Hilary Hahn, and played here so beautifully by Mari Samuelsen, was the starting point for the whole of VOICES. Over the years of working on the project, the music has taken many forms, nearly all of them put to one side, but the music of Mercy has always been a sort of pole star, guiding the rest of the piece. Yulia’s beautiful film places the question of mercy and compassion firmly into our everyday world. We are all in this together.

This is the perfect illustration of “be kind because you have no idea what someone is suffering/going through.”
Thank you. The world is a little bit better because this exists.
Everything about this is perfect.
I feel like this is about human connection. Raw. Unfiltered. Let's see 🙌
On the nature of daylight, all human beings and mercy are the holy trinity.
WOW! I am speechless. There is suffering in everyone's life . We just need to empathise and sympathise. We need see the bigger picture. We are born, live and die. We need to be kind and help each other because there is suffering in everyone's life. Let us be unconditionally kind. Let us Love unconditionally. May all living beings be well and happy. (The practise of " Metta" loving kindness in Buddhism ). This kind of music for those who truly enjoy music. This will not be on billboard top 100 , but it will heal thousands of souls.
Deeply moving, in a nostalgic, hauntingly beautiful sense.
Never get tired of listening to this ❤❤❤
"Written ten years ago for Hilary Hahn, and played here so beautifully by Mari Samuelsen". I have no words, just one: DIVINE
My heart is broken in so many ways at this moment and has been for so long. But we must move on. Max, your music brings my soul such needed peace in this loveless world. Thank you.
I have grown to appreciate music that I can feel, rather than simply hear. This piece touched me deeply. Thank you.
I don’t think there’s a more perfect harmony of video and music. Every note and imagery pierces my heart.
How does this man manage to have me in tears EVERY time I listen to his music. Sublime.... Achingly beautiful ❤️
Max is the legend
Yeah, at some stage people start to realize their strong connection with their childhood and all that was long time ago when everything was airily, carefree. This is very straight forward feeling, it makes you feel happy once again. Feel the roots, feel the moment, have mercy.
You know when you hear violins, it's going to be very moving. It's going to hit the heart... 💙
Whatever happened at 4:33 engulfed me, it was as if my soul was on fire, what an absolute thrill!
It is wondrous just how emotionally moving, evocative, and connected a seemingly random series of unrelated scenes become by the addition of music that knits the images together into a relevant whole. Richter's compositions are so seemingly simple and yet so stunningly heart-rending.
Спасибо
my eyes burn with tears
