VOCES8 sings 'Sicut Cervus’ by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina in the VOCES8 Centre in London.
TEXT (Psalm 42:1)
Sicut cervus desiderat ad fontes aquarum,
ita desiderat anima mea ad te, Deus.
TRANSLATION
As the hart panteth after the water brooks,
so panteth my soul after thee, O God.

I don't think there is a vocal ensemble who can touch VOCES8. To everything they sing, they bring absolute perfection and sheer beauty.

@biancaganesh4721 Год назад

Oui, ils sont excellents. Connaissez-vous Phillipe Herreweghe ? Il fait de la dentelle en musique chorale.

@wmbaak Год назад

I totally agree

@ellynsong Год назад

totally agree and will add that the rate at which they add to their repertoire is really impressive.

it's hard to imagine Palestrina not smiling.

@ndumi5124 Год назад

This is the first piece of choral music I learnt as part of an ensemble. It was 2007 and I sang Tenor I. This song introduced me to Palestrina and changed my life. Thank you Voces8 for reigniting one of the most magnificent and important time in my life. ❤️🙏🏾

May I ask what voice you are singing now, bro?

Me too in 1972

@jaredhardman3378 2 месяца назад

Not my very first, but one of the first where I really felt part of something bigger than classmates singing a song. I was singing bass 1 (Bari) in 1993

@carlgeenen1654 Год назад

Beautiful. Serene. Vintage Palestrina. Sung perfectly. Voices blended seamlessly. VOCES8 never ceases to amaze. Bravo!!

@christophergreen3809 6 месяцев назад

VOCES8 really captures the beauty of the High Renaissance in this piece! Palestrina's highly refined style is heard clearly.

If my memory serves me right, and do correct me if I am wrong, this statement was likewise, once given by St Augustine of Hippo.

@onceamusician5408 9 месяцев назад

it would be nice if it were true, but it is not. for the context of how and when even religious singing is NOT prayer acceptable to God see Isaiah chapter 1 verse 10 ff and more explicitly, actually referring to "worship music" Amos 5: 22-24 and also look for the original derivation of the word cant - meaning hypocrisy

@jeremytan5297 5 месяцев назад

@@onceamusician5408 Isaiah beginning of chapter 1 is literally just talking about the corruption in the ancient city of Judah, it has nothing to do with singing. Amos 5 is talking specifically about God's warning and calls for repentance towards the ancient Israel, which again, is not specific to singing and is just God saying even their singing will be ignored if the corruption persist. Let me remind you, the entire book of Psalms by the old King David is literally prayer in music and lyrics. Let me also remind you the Mother of God, Mary herself burst in singing (The Magnificat) upon the Annunciation from the Angel Gabriel. Context is key, not blind reading.

@Robertmeulendijk 11 месяцев назад

This work of Palestrina is absolutely beautiful sung, in tune and well phrased. Voces8 is probably the most perfect singer ensemble ever.

My feeling exactly! I was instantly transported to Heaven! I mean it! I'm a professional pianist and I love all genres. Today I was listening to Mozart, Latin music, swingin' jazz and ragtime. And now I turned to this, and it carries me away!

@mayamoss6666 24 дня назад

0:29 this (the part when tenors sing “cer”) is my favorite part of the song. The harmonies of this note (or I guess two notes for the soprano part) are just so breathtakingly beautiful. I get goosebumps every time I hear it.

@mayamoss6666 24 дня назад

1:53 is my second favorite part. Same concept as my favorite part.

@garywait3231 Год назад

Exquisite in both balance and tempo, allowing the voices to blend into a beautiful tapestry of sound. I have sung this many times (USA), but find most choirs here take too fast a tempo, and the beautiful interweaving of the parts is lost. Yours is just right. Thanks.

Oh yay! Been waiting for this on RU-vid!!!! Palestrina writes the best magical moments for altos. I'm always sad when someone leaves VOCES8 but so impressed that each new iteration of the ensemble reworks and balances and blends while still keeping the glorious sounds and details. Bravo!

@donlord3978 Год назад

Finally!! I had long wished for Voces8 to perform Sicut Cervus (which was one of the earliest Choral hymns I was exposed to). Beautiful, as always - moving despite having heard it so many times all these years, and delivered in such a silky smooth blend of voices. Bravo! That final Ad Te Deus brought home by the Soprano singers is just.. perfect. Like cool water to the parched soul, to borrow the metaphor. PS: Nice to see so many others in the comments who had waited for exactly this piece by Voces :D
