Monteverdi's Vespers of 1610 

Charles Daniels is amazing!

Praise be to Christ

Why did you "not expect it from Nova Scotia or even Canada"?

Mir geht es ebenso. Ich freue mich auch über dieses wundervolle Ensemble. Danke auch für den mitlaufenden lateinischen und englischen Text.

Fcxcd 😢c 😅

I couldn't agree more!

I couldn’t agree more. This ranks up there with the best versions of this sublime work ever recorded.

There is a spirit of holy reflection that permeated this version. Although many performances have the style, they rarely reflect any reverence for God There are great advantages to be gained in recording in an archtectural structure that provided a proper organ, and the natural resonance for the voices and instruments, particularly when the echo effect was used. One sees it reached into thehearts of the audience as well. Good show everyone!

Yeh I ain’t hearing the similarities , anyone else?

At the very beginning (0:14) you hear a very steady line, kinda like someone in conversation and the choirs response at 0:24. The classical dude in the ksi video I believe is referring to Rick Ross as 0:14 and the energy release at the end as 0:24.

Never mind he literally explains it at the end of the video did not know

@Govava Quite a stretch lol, but I guess music is subjective

@Govava Wow ok child

Glad you enjoyed it Rosalind

They are the boys from Capella Regalis Men and boys choir which at the time was the only boys choir which sang church music in Halifax(there were 0 Girls choirs that sang church music at the time). BUT now the newly formed Capella Regalis Girls choir is in full swing! I believe the director of the concert also used the boys choir because that is the way the piece is intended to be performed. But thank you for your kind words after all i am one of the boys in the choir lol this was my first concert. Go check out the Capella Regalis RU-vid page where they are releasing a concert recording of Faurés Requiem (Released on April 1st for limited time) with the Boys and Girls choirs, and with the all saints cathedral choir! A wonderful concert I was glad to be apart of! Hope you enjoy it! Happy Easter!

@Alexander Hendry very interesting comment

That is a legitimate question. Halifax does need a real positiv organ. We are seeking a donor, these instruments start at $100,000, and require roughly $1000 of maintenance per year.

Wendy Carlos' THE WELL-TEMPERED SYNTHESIZER has entered the chat.

Why ? Make your own techno music on your side.

The hottest take on monteverdi, possibly ever.

Check out Wendy Carlos' THE WELL-TEMPERED SYNTHESIZER - it's the last track.

His 1990 version is outstanding, but his other versions are a mixed bag . Over the top, even bombastic. Especially the BBC Proms ones. He peaked with the 1990 one.

@@tomswift3261 Performing in St Marks helps a lot, especially with the separation of choirs. However, I agree, never has been, nor ever will be bettered.

@DonaldTrumpVEVO He showed me the wonders of rick ross so thats good I guess. I think dale just figured out his wife was cheating on him with john redcorn so the whole neighborhood has been on "dale watch" good lord someone bless arlen.

True. Not that it matters much. But the ethereal reverb of the trebles in ‘Santa Maria Ora Pro Nobis’ could never be achieved in the small, crowded, and cluttered sanctuary shown in the footage. Never.
