bored5501, give a listen to Franz Bieber's Ave Maria and Giacamo Carissimi's Plorate o filii Jerusalem from his oratorio Jephte, both certain tearjerkers (or at least worthy of goosebumps).
Absolutely beautiful! I love religious music (but not Christian rock, yuck!). What with all the hypocrisy and conflict always going on, the music really gives me a sense of the actual religion, the people put aside. Plus, music just evokkes certain emotions and images in me. I love this song. It just seems like the layers of voices are wafting over each other... Any idea where I could find another piece like this?
There are at least two alterations to the original score plus the repetition of the beginning instead of the second part. It's also slightly off key but... the only other version I found on youtube is by the abominable Awkland choir and it's atrocious.
Um, excuse me. I hate to tell you this but the Rennassance were from 1450-1600. So if Antonio composed this peice it would have had to of beendone in the baroque period.
Try to hear this miserere sung by Balthasar - Neumann Chor & Ensemble conducted by Thomas Engelbrock, and you'll hear the best version of this Miserere.
One more thing: if this choir is following the sheet music, why they make up a non-original final and the just sing the beginning? I insist: they sing out of tune.
Well, mayhaps I just have a more untrained ear, because this one honestly doesn't sound that bad to me. And I remember reading a version of Miserere edited and translated by Walter Ehret and Harry Wilson that sounds very similar to what they're singing here. It was only 3 or 4 pages if I remember correctly.
If you could let me know how to find the version you mentioned, I'd appreciate it. I have a couple versions on my computer, but I'd love to hear another good recording.
Wait, I think one of the versions I have is the one you're talking about. I didn't realize it because the Artist/Composer was labeled differently. Is that the one from CD 3 of a set entitled Requiem - Miserere - Credo?
Lotti, Porpora sono megliori, voglia di sentire ancora e ancora.

Beautiful song. Such a hard song to keep in tune and they went flat but nonetheless... Gorgeous piece.

We're doing this piece for Good Friday. I have to fight tears when I'm singing it.

I am in love with Lotti. His use of dissonance to convey sorrow is just brilliant.

Our HS girls choir sang almost the same thing. We ended at 1:58. It's sounds really amazing! The song is actually called Miserere Mei.

Sorry, but it's really awful. Totally out of tune.

Is that a joke?
If not, you obviously haven't heard this version before. Look at the sheet music. I think they performed it as it was written.

Man, I love this song so much. I've always said you could feel God cry if you sang it properly, haha.
