Josef Rheinberger - Abendlied 

This is not the original version, so it is difficult to compare it to other interpretations. I do admit that is beautifully sung, though.

All 4 parts were doubled, as the description says which groups them in pairs. Though the original is written in six parts and contrary to the impression that there ARE singers singing on their own (because they are standing distant and the camera isolates them!), they are singing a reduced score of just four parts which preserves all beginnings of the six parts but omits some filling or even bass notes and thereby simplifies the harmonies.

@@MrMoguer Hi there! Both sopranos were on the soprano 1 part and the altos were split. Likewise, tenors were split (as in the original) and basses were doubled. It's an immensely gratifying piece to perform and I'm glad I was able to do so with this great ensemble.

Это потому, что они поют четырехчастную версию.
