Gounod "Domine Salvum Fac"

[BullBULLinski]

Can anyone tell me where I can find sheet for this piece? I have looked in the HARVARD GLEE CLUB song book to no avail.

I say . . . does anyone have some footage/sound of this glorious piece sung, full-hearted and full-throated, in Cambridge, Mass., outdoors in some June? Please share it with us hungry community!

You know what, I love this piece, and it's actually the my college's "school song", but whenever I Google or YouTube search "domine salvum fac" by Gounod, I get a completely different piece, and this seems not to exist. Where on earth did you find this? Beloit College has used this for over a century, but there's no opus number on our edition of the music. Did Gounod write two settings of this?

Look in the Harvard Glee Club song book. That's where I found it.

I remember a prayer (of the old times):

Oremus pro Re Publica et Praeside eius!

So I would interpret the lyric as

Salvum fac Praesidem chief, president) Nostrum

et exaudi nos in die qua invocaverimus te.

[vernon361970]

huh that not the domine salvam by gounod....

Vous devez avoir raison. Par contre je ne connais pas suffisamment le latin pour pouvoir donner un avis sur la traduction du mot "président".

Mis à par cela votre français est très bon, nettement mieu que mon anglais.

Cordialement

Erreur de grammaire latine: la déclinaison "reginem" n'existe pas. la déclinaison correcte est "regem"
