Enfant, j'ai decouvert et aime cette musique qui etait l'indicatif d'une retransmission internationale à la télé. J'ai creusé et élargi mes modestes connaissances de la musique baroque jusqu'à présent grâce à cela. La culture est partout; restons attentifs et curieux.😊
William Christie is the absolute master of the French Baroque. An American in Paris, who became one the greatest frenchmen by merit. May Les Arts Florissants live forever!
This piece represents the French baroque perfectly. The grandeur, beauty, and life perfectly epitomize the good of the French monarchy, especially under Louis XIV, so well, as well as the French brilliance of the 17th century.
This is without doubt the most vibrant and joyful Charpentier Te Deum I've heard and seen! I can only imagine what a joy it would have been either in the choir or orchestra on that particular occasion. I will watch and listen to this as often as I open my computer! Thank you to all who made it so special.
I sang this te deum when i was a part of a choir. I sang for eight years for the Maîtrise de Caen, a French choir for children from 6 to 14 yo. That was one of the greatest days of my life. Today i listen with nostalgia to this master piece (i apologies for my Bad english, i'm French
@@GM-tq6kj : of course, in the late Baroque era nothing could be superior to J.S. Bach's "Die Kunst der Fuge". But that was one century later. Honestly, no Bach Kantata contains as much supreme quality music as this Te Deum.
This is electrifying! I've always loved this piece but the use of original forms of instrumentation and the enthusiasm of the orchestra is stunning. Absolutely made my day.
L'ensemble qui représente le mieux cette musique dans un lieux hautement symbolique. La beauté, la joie , qui ne croit pas en Dieu peut se demander si ce n'est quand même pas une intervention divine qui a inspiré une telle oeuvre
Cette interprétation du TE DEUM de MArc-Antoine Charpentier, réalisée à la chapelle royale de Versaille avec des instruments anciens et l'ensemble ''Les Arts Florissants'' dirigé par William Christie... Tout simplement grandiose...Une réussite...
How exhilarating it is to see musicians so energetically express their commitment to such a masterpiece. Enjoyment is on nearly every face. Thank you for your unbridled enthusiasm and brilliant execution.
Everything is perfect. The Chapelle royale, the orchestra, the conductor, the chorus and soloists and, yes, the pronunciation of Latin as it used to be in France until the 20th century! Té déom lodamüs!
Oh that's interesting about the pronunciation of Latin, I only recently appreciated that what I think of Latin is really Ecclesiastical Latin and that it differs significantly from Classical Latin. I wonder if the French pronunciation was also what we inherited in England from the Normans? Quite possibly I guess, given that English coronations where spoken in French for 300 years after 1066!
@@lauriethompson740 This is a french version of ecclesiastical Latin. The standard version is the Italian pronunciation, but many nations made some adaptations based on their language's phonetics. I don't know much about the spread to the English language, but the Ecclesiastical Latin currently used in anglophone countries follows modern English accents.
As an "spanish" speaker, I found extremely strange that pronunciation. Seems to be so, that "italian" and castilian have very near phonology ... Anyway, I've never heard before, about that "french prounciation" for classical latin. Kind regards from Montevideo. 🇺🇾
I must add that French pronunciation did not take stress into account (actually, Latin words used to be stressed the same way as French does: on the last syllable). Italian ecclesiastical pronunciation, on the other hand, stresses the words as Italian does, which is close to the original Latin (but ignores the original length of the vowels). This has consequences on the way the Latin words fit to the music. It would be interesting to listen to Romantic French music, from a time the French pronunciation was still used (e.g. Berlioz's Requiem). It could be quite surprising! By the way, "té déom" is how the title of such a piece is pronunced, regardless of the pronunciation that is used by the singers.

Este Tedeum del músico francés canta la gloria de Dios. Se agradece al que compartió esta bella música que alaba la grandeza del misterio de Dios. Charpentier dota a este viejo himno cristiano de una música sublime.
Le grand mystère de Dieu c'est qu'il nous offre à travers les siècles un compositeur de génie, une oeuvre gandiose, un ensemble et un maître de grand talent, musiciens et orchestre sublimes et que cela puisse être vu et entendu par la planète entière...
Magnífic! Una entrega total per part del cor i dels músics. Aquesta obra és molt difícil d,interpretar per les constants entrades de músics i vocalistes. Les trompetes genials. Meravellosa.
At his death, Charpentier's complete works must have numbered about 800 opus numbers, but today only 28 autograph volumes remain, or more than 500 pieces that he himself took care to classify. This collection, called Mélanges, is one of the most comprehensive sets of musical autograph manuscripts of all time.
Te Deum laudamus the official Hymn of Thanksgiving of the Roman Catholic Church, attributed to St. Ambrose of Milan and St. Augustine of Hippo who was converted by the former to God for graces obtained from Him.
Played the prelude on an Eb trumpet back in 1997 for a wedding. This is the first time I've heard the whole BEAUTIFUL piece. Dummy me. I should have know it was a prelude to SOMETHING. Now I know. Enjoyed it very much. I'll put a link in my collection.
Two years years later I cannot feel anything other than fury and bitterness- I have lost both my mother and husband to lockdown and safetyism. And I cannot find the words for my anger.
JUSTE MAGNIFIQUE ! Bravo la percussioniste aux timbales en entrée ! FAN TOTAL DE CETTE MUSIQUE ! (un ancien élève de Francis Brana de l'orchestre de Paris en percussions et batteur-compositeur )
@@MrBohuslav It' s the Royal Chapel at Versailles Castle , nothing more nothing less.... be sure they will play THIS for the reopening of Notre Dame. it's the best piece of frenche sacred music !
Aside from their unencumbered and naturally-endowed artistry, these wonderful and dear musicians show genuine happiness and joy in performance - it shows in their faces and in the depths of their eyes, the spiritual energy they emote which by nature is obviously inherent. They come to the stage already enjoined by expressive energy. They command Marc Antione's score in a manner which would make him happy. As I write this inconsequential personal note, I do not see their faces, yet I see the light emerging from the place of their performance. The test of any art - what light does it render, and from where? Plainly seen in the soul of every performer on this stage. Thank you.
What you wrote is exactly what I felt when listening to this magnificent interpretation. This could not have been better described. I agree 100% with you. Many greetings and thank you very much for writing that in a much better way than I did; that helped me put my feelings in order.
Brilliantly performed, but special compliments to whoever did the recording. The sound quality through a decent sound system is super, even via RU-vid.
Te Deum means" [Un]To God" in latin. I can only imagine the sound of combined praise in heaven by millions of the saved ones, joined by an inumerable host of angels, applauding the love, mercy and unbridled grace of our God, The Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit of Truth!! HALLELUIA!!
1:13 1:40 4:55 5:41 8:23 .... ¡¡¡La felicidad de interpretar una pieza musical de belleza impresionante!!!! Me encantó ver esos rostros que reflejan tanto entusiasmo por lo que están haciendo e inmensa alegría por ser partícipes de una interpretación tan magnífica y tan espectacular. Hermosa amalgama de intérpretes de tan diversas edades, y todos parecen (y demuestran estar) comprometidos con el alma y el corazón para lograr un resultado de verdad magistral. E-x-t-r-a-o-r-d-i-n-a-r-i-o ..........Bravo ..... ¡BRAVÍSIMO!
merci merci merci William Christie pour tout ce que vous avez fait pour la culture française et votre engagement sans faille au service des arts universels
@@robertheinrich2994 Hahaha!😆 With a continuo section that stacked? I'm sure he would approve. Archlute/theorbo, big double bass, and I think organ with pedals. Doesn't mess around!
@@JEV2025 Ola! We french invented Marx before it was even born. We have Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the encyclopedists and Robespierre. We have collectivism before all other, terror and mass murdering of our own people before all other (read 'the infernal columns') and a philosophy of collectivism before all the other. Tha's a good start to kill a nation, and we have succeed in doing so, applaus! :D However nobody will read that comment because shadow banning... sad :(
@@petermaquine8173 robespierre and marat destroyed france in all levels in my own and humble opinion the murder of louis vxi was the worst thing to france ever, killed an innocent king and his family france got a greatest damnation until a nowdays, sadly french people have no any knowledge about the truth and still continues in wrong side of history...
@@JEV2025 Thank you for using the correct word: murder. I had a coworker who was always throwing up the "executions" of Louis and Marie when ever we had other teachers in for teacher secessions - I could count on it as much as two followed one. At one of these "secessions" she finally asked as to why I took offense to it. I had a great deal of satisfaction in holding out my arms and pointing to my veins and telling her: I have the blood of the Capets and the Von Babenburgs into whose family the Von Habsburgs married; these people of whose murder is a source of sport for you, are my distant blood kin.
For the most part, you have Vatican 2 to thank for that. This genre of music is more ceremonial than ecclesiastical, but was often used in when "ceremonies of the state" were held in church such as Thanksgiving Services, royal weddings and such.
Te Deum laudamus, te Dominum confitemur. Te aeternum Patrem, omnis terra veneratur. Tibi omnes angeli, tibi caeli et universae potestates, tibi cherubim et seraphim, incessabili voce proclamant : « Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus Dominus Deus Sabaoth. Pleni sunt caeli et terra maiestatis gloriae tuae. » Te gloriosus Apostolorum chorus, te prophetarum laudabilis numerus, te martyrum candidatus laudat exercitus.
What a marvelous video! I love the happiness on the faces of the musicians, both instrumentalists and singers, the unrestrained encouragement of the conductor, and the wonderful music. Praise the Lord, indeed!
This majestic and solemn performance they play with exquisite skill and splendid technique is beyond description , immeasurable , unfathomable and full of admiration and emotion , and comfortable to the ear and the mind
Yikes, that was a big emotion for a performance… unfathomable?! It was quite fathomable, because it was fathomed. Immeasurable?! Literally, the time signature of the music is called the ‘measure’. ‘Beyond description’?! You literally described the performance as all those other things. Chill out bro.

Meraviglioso! Interpretano in pieno il senso gioioso del ringraziamento. Intenzioni, intonazione perfetta, senso corale d'appartenenza a un'idea musicale potente e magistralmente condotta.
In this dreadful time of continuing gloom, this supremely wonderful gem from Arte uplifted my bypassed and re-valved heart ... thank you for the pure joy and soul blessing I have found here!
bourreDeLaVie: That is amazing surgery. I hope you are recovering well and comfortably. We in Dixie have a saying for our friends and loved ones and I pass it on to you: ‘Bless your heart!’ We usually give a warm and friendly hug at the time but I can’t do now although I do wish you a speedy recovery. God bless you. 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
What a marvelous, quick, lively little mass. When one hears the word “mass” you would think of dark mystical sacred works in the style of Giovanni but this defines the tradition with one of my favorite baroque sacred works, truly a masterpiece.
