Fabulous. Extraordinary....there aren't enough words to convey my appreciation of this presentation. Thank you.

John, I am a bass, and I don't feel I need to be kind - this is really quite marvellous! I congratulate you!

@leonhrad It was written in F, which is what this performance is. You are probably used to hearing it in G or A-flat, as many choirs do to facilitate ease for the sopranos and altos. Also, some scholars like to repitch Renaissance music, arguing that the pitch was different. However, at the time, pitch could very by as much is a fifth from one place to another, so I feel like forcing a change in key for reasons other than ensemble comfort is an exercise in futility.

Omg. I randomly chose yours to follow along and learn for callbacks, and I kept thinking "damn these tenors are early with the altos...." you troll. fantastic job.

Thanks! We're learning this in choir, and this really helps!

Thanks for posting the lyrics

@amazieng 13 лет назад

Wow, that was amazing, and I truly was surprised to find it was all by one person!

@JIM-ot4ws Год назад

Wow, probably the only choir that gave space to the tenor/s who hold the exquisite melody throughout and who always get lost in other versions. However the pace is like a machine and too fast.

@ioannium Год назад

“Too fast” is entirely a subjective judgment call, but I’m defending my own tastes from 13 years ago here, and I wouldn’t record it the same way today. That said, “machine like” pace to you is “consistent” to me, and I’d rather the music be made within the given tempo rather than by bastardizing the tempo with rubato or inaccuracy. To each his own, I suppose.

@JIM-ot4ws Год назад

@@ioannium Speed is subjective, true, but the pace sounds like an even metronome which is not at all desirable with any music. I repeat, I really love the vocal balance of the voicings, that was amazing. Hope you get to do it again many times again as it is a remarkable piece of music ...

excellent!!!

I love singing the first "Quando veniam" in Sitivit. C= Beautifully done. So, I suppose that the h in mihi being pronounced as a k in ecclesiastical Latin comes from that Latin being influenced by Italian?

@ioannium 13 лет назад

@DanInRealLife24 One and the same. Thanks!

@leonhrad 12 лет назад

It sounds like it was transposed down a little

@pierredsa6809 10 лет назад

great job! But are you sure to sing the right note at 25th bar (alto : c, E, f)?

@ioannium 8 лет назад

+Pierre dSA There are a couple versions out there. Given access to the source material, I'd probably change what's there now, but I'm letting it stand for now because I don't have the time to go back and change it.

@ioannium 11 лет назад

Ecclesiastical Latin simply doesn't make sense. It's basic rules are "pronounce it as if it were dumbed down Italian." it's a system that's applied to a language that was never meant to have something like that. The rules of classical Latin pronunciation make MUCH more sense.

@johnn.8140 7 лет назад

It's an interesting thing to hear pieces sung in both Classical and Ecclesiastical. However, you are correct in choosing to perform Catholic Church music with her pronounciation. As a Traditional Catholic who performs these pieces regularly as the season provides, I applaud you for being a good musicolgist and performer. It does my ear voilence to hear Church music sung with Classical pronounciation. It's like being from one part of a country and hearing a different dialect. You still understand it but it may do violence to you hear. Thank you for chosing correctly.

@TheNaveOfCharlemagne 11 лет назад

>.> One day, in the very distant future, Latin pronunciation will make proper sense to me.
