I heard the Striggio a40 mass on BBC radio 3 or 4 years ago, performed by the Tallis Scholars... but I didn't have a recording until the I Fagiolini recording that came out last month. I've been listening to this for a couple weeks on the drive to work. Thank you! Marvelous recording.
Listening to this CD gives the listener the impression that they are in the worlds largest music hall sitting on the chair farthest from the stage with the singers at the far opposite end of the hall. I have never heard a recording like this(albeit a lot of classical records are mono or in poor sound). Was this the the intention of sound engineers?
Why do Il Fagiolini win awards? the singing and phrasing is absolutely dreadful. They can't break away form the songs of praise tradition in the Anglican Church and they sound like a bunch of old virgins. It;s a shame; the orchestra and conducting is top notch. The audio and sound engineering as well. I can;t wait for the Clemencic Consort or an Italian group to record this.
@placydil I wouldn't call them an awesome choir either necessarily but that's a bit harsh!
Most of the people hearing this are complimenting it's beauty. You can say they are all just musical newbies (and frankly many probably are) but 'absolutely dreadful' is surely an exaggeration.
I have often seen however that some groups within classical music gain notoriety more for their choice of repertoire than anything... it's not that they sing it best, it's that they sing it most, (or, at all)
@WtfItzHuy to answer your question and others who were curious about it, that 14 stringed instrument is a 14 string lirone (baroque instrument, a Google search reveals)
Can't wait to add this to my collection, why did we stop making music like this? Now we have idiots just saying words instead of singing them and most of it is highly degrading towards people. :/
@subvertcity77 That is a lirone, a bass member of the lira family of bowed stringed instruments. Having anywhere from 9-16 strings, it was used mainly in the late 16th and early 17th centuries to provide continuo or accompaniment to vocal music. It is found in much of Monteverdi's work.
I find it interesting that the point where he is discussing Tallis's "Spem in Alium"(at around 3:40), the music sounds almost identical to the "Creator, Caeli et Terra" from Spem. That G-major chord also plays a strong role in "Spem".

"Lost' 450-year-old mass soars on British charts.. The recording by British vocal group I Fagiolini of the little-known Alessandro Striggio's 1566 mass for 40 voices -- most masses are written for four -- made its debut at number 68 on the pop charts, above Bon Jovi, George Harrison and Eminem."
I'm glad humanity still has a modicum of musical taste. >_>
@squeakyla my comment was intended to be facetious ;P as musical talent certainly still exists today. But if you look at what is most 'popular' The sad thing is that many of those 'terrible artists' make billions of dollars. Why them, and not this? You have to ask yourself.
Popularity is far from being a gauge of talent or artistic value as you know. I hate to say it but is it because music like this requires more brain power/focus to appreciate?
@ShawDAMAN For what it's worth, popular music - that is, music popular with the masses - has a very long and honorable history of being not fit for classic status of the ages. Think of the often bawdy songs popularly sung in taverns in Elizabethan England, for example.
@squeakyla P.S. I also think that the value and inherent talent (even of something like music which is so extremely subject to personal taste) can be measured to some degree. And I'm sorry, but I do consider Beethoven and Mozart etc as much greater talents than say Taylor Swift, Justin Beiber and yes, Eminem etc etc. Are they 'good at what they do?' Sure. But I consider what they do to be of far less intrinsic value and talent than what classical composers accomplish(ed.)
@ShawDAMAN Jesus, I hate Taylor Swift's voice, and Justin Bieber has no talent.
Eminem has insane lyrical/rapping talent and doesn't have less value than classical just because he's a rapper. You're just prejudiced against certain types of music because you like classical most. You can't really measure talent between different genres that are that different. Between music of the same genre though, perhaps.
@fatmooseandjellyfish Justin Beiber has less talent vocally than my morning coffee has capability stopping a forest fire.
This, however, is exquisite. I've been in a choir that did a 16 part split only for 12 measures, and that was hard enough. I can't imagine the amount of work that goes into singing a 40 part mass. I can't wait for this recording to be released.
@atukomanga1 Soon Master Bieber will follow in the steps of every other lack of talent icon that Disney chooses to exploit, I am just not looking forward to him getting of a car in a miniskirt with no skivvies on...lol... Classical music is almost always amazing, when compared to lackluster pop crap.
@squeakyla I guess I am prejudiced. What I'm saying is I rank Rembrandt or Michelangelo higher than a newspaper cartoonist even though both are 'talented.' I rank a brilliant organist higher than a brilliant ukulele player. And I rank a man who writes an incredible symphony for hundreds of instruments and voices, with a great uplifting message, higher than a man who writes a 2 minute studio-processed rap replete with profanity (not as people but as artists.) We agree on Beiber/Swift at least. ;)
@ShawDAMAN Well, I understand why about the cartoonist vs. the art. It obviously does take more effort to create a large intricate painting than a cartoon in the paper. As for organist vs. ukelele well yeah, ukelele is probably easier to play, but it's different for everyone. Guitar might to "easy" to play simple songs on but I suck because my fingers are sensitive..but they're long and skinny so I'm good at piano :P And there is plenty of modern music that is uplifting. profanity does not have
@squeakyla Well I play guitar... everyone's fingers are sensitive at first ;P Whether words should be censored on the radio is not really a topic that interests me. However I consider profanity to very often be a verbal/linguistic crutch. Many people (and many 'song writers' now) just can't go 3 words without swearing. To me that is mental and artistic laziness. (And lameness, frankly.) Awesome art, both in literature and music, has been made for centuries without resorting to that.....
@ShawDAMAN profane. It just means talking about "perverted things" or saying "bad words." Who decided that some words can't be said on the radio? That doesn't even make sense, you know? And said words can add emotion, dynamics to a song. Take Fuckin Perfect by Pink xD You might dislike it because of said profanity or that it's one singer and not 40 singers but it is beautiful and uplifting too. and not everyone can round up 40 people to sing their composition. but everyone who can sing, can sing
@squeakyla ....and people just throw these words and phrases out there like they would 'good morning.' B*tch this and Mother****er that and sh*t that- just STOP a minute and think about what those words actually MEAN. It is crude, vulgar and unnecessary.
But, anyway. I didn't come here to discuss that lol. :/ I guess nobody is changing anyone's mind.
@ShawDAMAN Some bad rappers just throw em out there, like (a lot) of what's on the radio these days. But I see Kanye West, JayZ as better, and then there's aesop rock and eyedea...And then there's plenty of other types of music with curse words. But if someone knows how to write lyrics, they're not just throwing vulgarity out for the sake of vulgarity. and curse words can make a good point stronger. It's hard to explain if you don't already understand :s
@squeakyla Oh I agree it certainly isn't just rappers that curse a lot (I never said so.)
I have never heard a great speech or a great song and thought "man, good song, but a few f-bombs sure would have made it better." This is what I mean by 'crutch.' Profanity is often used both by average people and songwriters for that very reason- to underline their 'points' or fill in gaps in their vocabulary that could otherwise be filled by good words that would be more to the point- and inoffensive.
@squeakyla I can honestly say that the most profound and moving songs/music (and writings of any kind, really) I've heard (and I do like other music lol... not just classical, I like classic Jazz, soul, old doo wop, some bluegrass and country, indie/folk etc) were quite devoid of swearing. I really value good speech, vocabulary, writing, grammar. Hope I don't come across as a snob or anything. At least you acknowledge the value of the so called 'higher' cultural stuff. Many don't.
@spooge1234 It is a 15th century representation of a "Viola da gamba". The Viola da gamba was used in the 16th and 17th century and had 6-7 strings, but in the 15th century it may have had up to 14 strings like what you observe with this musician. The modern cello has evolved over many centuries, probably starting with the Theorbo, which was an instrument played similarly like the modern violin. The Theorbo had 13- 14 strings. It was then probably made bigger to make a deeper sound.
Absolutely gorgeous! I've sung in 8 part before, but 40!?!?! Amazing! That must be what heaven sounds like :) I miss singing classical music in a choir...you just can't beat it!
Though I haven't read tenniscutie's comment, I gather it had something to do with the unusual way in which the bows are held here. The grip is in the German style, similar to what most bassists use today. In the 1500s and 1600s, screws weren't used to hold the horse hair taut. The fingers instead had to do the work. The German hold also allows for easier vertical articulation in some cases. I haven't played a lirone, but I've played a viola da gamba, and the general bowing style is the same.
@Johniswaytoocool she said "sorry lady, but you're holding the bow to your cello wrong. believe me, i've been playing the cello for 6 years" she can delete the comment, but can't avoid being foiled by the internet
Isn't it perfect that a "Mass" is activating the hearing of our globe, taking us out of the deaf of the Dark Ages of HipHop...and bringing in the Endtimes.
@tenniscutie366 yes because someone named tenniscutie whos played for 6 years knows more than a professional orchestra composed of musicians who've no doubt been playing for far longer than you. i've been playing guitar for 10 years and still dont pretend to know more than the pro's
@tenniscutie366 if you look at the number of strings, you would realize that cellos have four strings not 14. That is a lirone and that is the proper hand position for the bow. Don't try to come off as an expert, the internet will always prove you wrong.

@tenniscutie366 if you look at the number of strings, you would realize that cellos have four strings not 14. That is a lirone and that is the proper hand position for the bow. Don't try to come off as an expert, the internet will always prove you wrong.
