Max Richter - Sarajevo free for downloading

The most beautiful music i will ever here. Thank you.

Sarajevo, whence comes thy gloom ? Tell me, has fire consumed thee ? Or has the flood engulfed thy streets ?  Or has the plague laid hold on thee ? "  Softly Sarajevo gives answer : " Had fire consumed me so sore, My shining courts would rise again. Had the fierce flood engulfed my streets, My markets would be cleansed and fresh. But plague has laid her murderous hand, Her murderous hand on young and old,  And those I love, has torn apart."

It feels like the voice is cutting through my soul and the strings are the plate my blood is falling into.

it is somehow a prayer for things not to happen again

XXth century began at Sarajevo. It ended there as well. Such an amazing piece to make feel that.

and if the City falls but a single man escapes he will carry the City within himself on the roads of exile he will be the City

"Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forgive life, to be at peace." Oscar Wilde.

“We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.”

Do not just listen to this composition. Listen to it in a sad moment. Listen to it when you're alone. Listen to it when you maybe lost something or someone. Listen to it after you went through all the hurdles, lost your way and lost your focus.Listen to it after you've sent your prayers to your god as your last hope. Listen to it in this very special rare moment where you think everything comes to an end. Listen to it...and you will feel how it empowers your heart, your soul and your body to get more strength, to overcome, to surpass, to find your inner center...and finally find yourself. And within that feeling of enlightment you will find the answer of the meaning of your life...

As a violinist this is one of the pieces of music I dream of playing with my orchestra someday :)

"Do not go gently into that goodnight"

Never has someone caught the pain and destruction of my city so strongly. Thank you Max, God bless and keep up the beautiful work.

"If all difficulties were known at the outset of a long journey, most of us would never start out at all." Dan Rather.

This melody captures the very feeling of sarajevo. Incredible. never have I heard anything that captures the pain and drama so precisely. 

I must thank The Leftovers for introducing me to this composer

Saw this great quote in this comment section: "The 20th century began at Sarajevo. It ended there as well."

I listen to this when existence overwhelms me.

“I said nothing for a time, just ran my fingertips along the edge of the human-shaped emptiness that had been left inside me.” ― Haruki Murakami.

Came from a Charles Bukowski - Genius of the crowd. That poem goes well with this masterpiece.
