Caldara - Crucifixus a 16 voci

[TheLestat94]

Two Antonios who wrote amazing large choral pieces! Lotti's is closer to my heart though <3

[fluffywuffyblue]

This is what the angels sing in heaven (and I'm not religious).

[fluffywuffyblue]

This is what the angels sing in heaven.

[3dover3]

@Jeremiae Or Lotti stuck in his late renaissance ways...

[jutboy100]

This must be what Heaven sounds like

[Alecs1950]

@jutboy100 Really this music brings Heaven on the earth,in our hearts.Glory to Lord Jesus Christ!

@jutboy100

exactly what I thought

[EffinMac]

I absolutely love the tension in this piece. As the performers sing each phrase, it is as though they are pulling taffy. Stunning.

[misstoxicz]

it's amazing, sounds of angels. i'd realy like to see the sheet music.

[andrejoaosf]

@misstoxicz

you still want the sheet music? I have it.. Just found it today

[jacman124]

Repeated until the end: Crucifixus etiam pro nobis sub Pontio Pilato, passus et sepultus est.

Po polsku:

Powtarzane do końca: Ukrzyżowany również za nas, pod Poncjuszem Piłatem został umęczony i pogrzebany.

[leonbattista83]

wonderful... who is the painter of the picture that we see during the music, it is very very mistic...

thanks

[iggnattius]

Very good, but I suggest the performance of "Cantemus Mixed Choir" at 2007 European Grand Prix for Choral Singing".

Thanks for sharing this opus

[sadguyfoundout1]

[simplicity171]

[AndreaSPitaim]

@simplicity171 "He (Christ) was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered, and was buried"

[simplicity171]

@AndreaSPitaim thanks

[danielbream]

bellissimo

[martina1982ful]

i agree with mauraargomaniz. this is very good version, but Sixteen are perfect singers, i listened to them on naxos music library, and i can say only wow. and, yes, Sixteen are mixed choir, you can check their website.

[JRZGRL55]

The Sixteen are not all male - they're a mixed choir. Are you thinking of Chanticleer?

[mauraargomaniz]

This is pretty good, but i like the version done by The Sixteen better. The fact that they are all males gives the song a quality that really gets to you.

[jibeth03]

i'm completely blown away!

[Stanleh]

Wooooooooonderfulllllllll! I can't beleive it. Absolutely amazingggg

[ShackledMaidens]

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bubblykings]

16 voices?! That's crazy...amazing.

[dis0guise]

Spem in alium by Tallis it ain't, not quite, but it has something of the same wonderful multiple-choir sound: it's a great piece for four four-part choirs, and the performers are indeed very good and carefully directed, far as I can tell. You can get a pdf of the score free from ChoralWiki if you're better at reading music than I am and want to follow along at home.

How did this music get 628 views but only 4 people thus far have commented? On top of that, the comments are only sentence fragments.

Not only is the composition top-notch, the singers must have had extensive training and direction.

Thanks again for sharing, Harmonico!

[manololo0]

Yes, voices. Exactly 16 voices!! Great!!

[margotlorena]

nice voices.....
