ANÚNA : Media Vita (2017) arr. Michael McGlynn 

Isn't music haram according to Sunni Islam?

@@Dei-gratia9498 It varies depending on the lyrics of the music. It's okay if it doesn't mean something bad. There is no harm in all religious music, regardless of religion, as it does not contain bad words.

This song is not redemptive. The original text is one of penitence, not praise. A caution to those who seek to avoid eternal damnation. And there is a line missing "are rightly displeased". Sins are subjective.

Hello brother, if not Christian, who do you follow?

There are more than Christians on this planet and religon is usually a very private thing, if you have any. Loads of people don't, some from ignorance and some by choice. It is a wonderful thing to have faith.

@@anunachoir I just discover you thanks to this song, anthem, hymn. I love it, I love it ! Thank you, thank you so much!! Kingdom of Heaven soundtrack lead to Anuna, thank you lord.

Absolutely. Me too. I'd rather have ancient or old music rather than the modern stuff we have today.

Thank you for your information 🙂

Finally i am not alone!

I guess there was just no way for McGlynn to fix the error of leaving out "Iuste Irasceris", though that rather mangles the meaning of the words.

MAJOR SLAY

Sam can knock you over at 20 paces. Must just be Michael's fantastic personality.

@@anunachoir lol! I notice a difference too, but don't think it has to do with force. More like mood, or interpretation. There is an edge in the 1995 version that almost becomes discordant. There is something close to anguish in the earlier recording; the resolution, almost resignation at the end, is therefore quite poignant. This one is more calm, more content. It is fulfilled and satisfied. The difference between Gethsemane and Pentecost, to my ears anyway. Both recordings are magnificent. Thank you for them.

Its actually 1995. We were a bit ahead of the posse.

Merci beaucoup!

@@anunachoir . C'est moi qui vous remercie. Ce moment à Jnan Sbil était un pur moment de bonheur. Je viens de m'abonner à votre site 💖👏👏👏

Thank you :-)

The praise is well deserved.

Apparently all religions are true. Why should RC have a monopoly on what is true and what is not?

@@anunachoir note I said " true catholic church". Don't misconstrue my words.

You mean the Protestant churches that label themselves as Catholic (e.g. Anglicans) or the Roman Catholic Church?

спасибо!

Дякую!

I'm glad to hear you have faith. It isn't for you to judge anyone's motivation. Christ never did that. His view was that all of us are the same, sinner or saint, and that love lies at the centre of healthy community. Love and tolerance. Your journey is whatever it is, but this performance is a community experiencing beauty together, and, in our humble opinion, that is enough. I think Jesus would have enjoyed the show. Reportedly he was into that himself.

​​@@anunachoirthis buddy isn't judging anyone, he is explaining the real meaning of the song for those who aren't aware of that.

@@anunachoir Tolerance? I may be misunderstanding you but Jesus Christ was never tolerant. During his earthly life, He was, and still is very much against the works of the devil. "If anyone causes one of these little ones-those who believe in me-to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea." (Matthew 18:6) "Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it ‘a den of robbers" (Matthew 21:12-13) "And if your eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell." (Matthew 18:9)

@@anunachoirJesus Christ was never tolerant. He was very much against the works of the devil. "Jesus entered the temple and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons. He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you make it a den of robbers.” (Matthew 21:12-17) "If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell." (Matthew 5:29) Keep in mind that this applies to all works of the devil. Including ideologies. If there is an ideology rampant that is harming souls, then it should be destroyed. (Islam, atheism, satanism, ect) And its "He" not "he".

No - you aren't misunderstanding me. We read in the New Testament what is best for societal harmony, hopefully, and it has to be born in mind that large quantities of the Bible were suppressed, mistranslated and politically constructed contemporaneously. The three quotes you make are ambiguous at best. You could read the first as related to bad parents, bad leaders, bad priests and misleading people with lies, which we all know is where politics is going today. The second seems to say don't lend money in a church as a business, and the last is to try not to let you antisocial weaknesses out of control. Hell - well, that is bollox really. It all seems pretty clear and not intolerant of anything.

+Xander Devereaux mulling over releasing it or not. We may...

Oh please do

+Hannelore17 the other recording was a lypsynch. This actually isn't so we are singing into a space relying on the natural acoustic to lead us. Also the original was sung mainly by untrained singers who would have breathed in a shallow manner. As we unify today on the breath we usually just let the song naturally fall into that rhythm. The whole piece breathes now. Before it was about a different kind of energy and one that had its place (and still would if we were reliant on a forest of microphones).

+Anuna-Manam I find this one to be more majestic

The piece was arranged in 1991 - the first version on RU-vid dates from 1995 and this is 2015. Thank you!

@@anunachoir thank you so much for your answer. It's nice to know the arrangement for male voices was created on 1991. I love this piece.

High praise. We couldn't shove the ladies any closer to the mikes. They were walking throughout most of it. The speed is dictated by the singers. Unlike the previous video from 1995, this one is actually live.

As

In the midst of life we are in death of whom may we seek for succour, but of thee, O Lord, who for our sins art justly displeased? Yet, O Lord God most holy, O Lord most mighty, O holy and most merciful Saviour, deliver us not into the bitter pains of eternal death.

Swaggy izleyicisii

Well - that actually is easy to explain. This one is live and the other was mimed.

Yes it is. Or just a beautiful ancient song. I suppose it depends on what you see as important in this world.

It is a death ritual! So you are not too far wrong.

God is everywhere.

Yes, but our Lord Jesus Christ is truly, really, and substantially contained in Blessed Sacrament in Tabernaculum. (CCC 1374) @@anunachoir

Really? That is completely unbelievable!

@@anunachoir It might be better to turn the comments off, people will always find problems. Great work :) thanks
