What a wonderful programme to ensure that knowledge and tradition are passed down to each generation. And obviously very successfully! Superb performance!
"The ethos is strong with these younglings!" @davidedwards2842 👏 This Gabrieli piece is such a foundational stone of the choral repertoire! So beautifully sung with nuance, tight ensemble, and clarity of text and musical intent! So well performed! 💛
Excellent, quality in depth. Whatever the training programme is, don't change it. Good to know that Voces8 will be around long after l have gone to hear genuine heavenly music.
How the world needs this text now. Can this be heard in Gaza? How long must Rachel bewail her lost children? The devil take all those who say they kill in the name of the Lord.
The antiphonal nature of Gabrielli’s writing is well-captured in this video - even while watching/listening on a tablet! Credit the marvelous Voces8 artists and their production team.
