Johann Sebastian Bach Mass in B minor Quoniam tu solus sanctus Cum Sancto Spiritu (4:30) Hanno Müller-Brachmann Collegium Vocale Gent Philippe Herreweghe Score: www.imslp.org The complete Mass in B minor: • Bach: Mass in B minor ...
I sang also the Mass in B-Minor! That was a fantastic experience for me!! The whole choir was in a special mood during the reharsals! A special spirit direct from Bach was in the air!Golden moments!
@@requieem2802 Yep, I was looking for Beethoven's Gloria from the Mass in C and decided I'll watch this instead because it's some nice music and then I found you :DDD
I've spent the last few days listening to the Et in terra pax fugue seemingly on repeat, and now I've returned to the Cum Sancto Spiritu fugue (4:31). The movements they're from are my favorite in the entire mass. They are already glorious enough to begin with, but when their respective fugues come in, they reach their absolute pinnacle. I cannot possibly express in words how much I love these moments, nor how much joy they give me. They truly are a taste of heaven.
This version has the best pacing of both songs I've ever heard... I mean cum sanctus actually sounds like a gong of church's bells going off, I've never heard that before! Beautiful!
*04:31* And for icing on the cake, Sebastian has us dance a 5-part _fugue_ in MINUET time -through several keys, ending back in D Major: _"··· with the Holy Spirit in the glory of God the Father !"_ 💃🕺 But of course !
The emphases are on "gloria" and "patris," signaling--with the uptempo, melismas, brass, and triumphant harmonic conclusions--that this movement is about the glory of the Father. Bach stated that the purpose of music is to refresh the spirit and glorify God. He conveys that profoundly here. 💙
If you (falsely) believe that a' should be 440 Hz, then you are right. However, this is a fairly recent standard, the pitch of a' varied in time and space. This recording (as practically all Bach recordings using period instruments) adopt the pitch standard of a'=415 Hz, a semitone lower than today's standard. So it is in the same key as the score, only it does not sound the same as e.g. 20th century music.
Vers 2:20 ; 2:30 l’homme chante deux fois en prononçant « Jesous », puis, lors de la suite de l’œuvre il chante « Yesous », si bien qu’on ne connais pas la bonne prononciation qui doit être faite…
Oui, tu as raison. Dans la version italienne du latin il faut être "Yezous". La première fois qu'il chante "Jezou" ce mot suit immédiatement la "s" du "altissimus" et peut-être ça cause que le "y" devient "j", pourtant ça n'explique pas la deuxième "Jezou". Bien noté.
quoniam tu solus sanctus The instrumentation with bass wind acts like a parody of the claim to be the only sanctity. Isn't the bearded grandfather portrayed with a bassoon? The mocking of those who want to be like God the Father in unity with the Holy Spirit is promptly followed by proof with a triumphant resurrection: Et ressurexit Only those who are one with the Holy have the power to rise and ascend to heaven
