A highly regarded performance by Amira Willighagen given in Dreumel, the Netherlands on December 16, 2019, after a two year absence from Europe. Filmed by Omroep Gelderland for Dutch television, the sound of this rendition was remixed by retired BBC sound engineer and Amira fan Phillip Ashley to capture how it sounded in the actual church. The venue was Sint-Barbarakerk/St. Barbara's church. The concert was sold out, naturally.
People who were there say fans stood for hours outside the church in the freezing cold to get a chance to see Amira after her long absence.
Place holders for fans were laid across certain seats.
The words of Pie Jesu are Merciful Jesus
Who takes away the sins of the world
Grant them rest
Everlasting
Rest.
The version Amira sings is from Andrew Lloyd Webber's Requiem
