I cannot express the depth of my gratitude. God bless you for uploading.

[Paxtoranious]

This is truly inspired music; rich in tone and living spirit, by far more original or complimentary to the period than the sugary Gregorian pop we are bombarded with commercially which has little originality to sacred pieces of worship. Thank you for your music and filmwork.

[zemotheon12987]

The words are magnificent. If only the people knew what it meant.

I heard this piece as part of a broadcast on BBC Radio 3 at Easter in 1991. I think the entire piece is called "On the Road to Emmaus". Does anyone know if this is available on CD?

I Am Alpha and Omega, the First and the Newest, the Beginning and the End, Who, before the creation of the world and unto the ages of ages, am Alive unto eternity. My Hands That hath made you were Transfixed with Nails for your sake; I was Struck with scourges, Crowned with Thorns; I asked for water while Suspended, and they offered vinegar; for My food they gave gall, and for My Side a Lance. I died and was Buried; I Arose, I am with you. See ye that it is I, and there is no God but Me,Alleluya

Non so se nel XII sec. cantassero così. Sono invece certo che la ricostruzione di monsieur Perès mette i brividi...

@ AFrightfulDream & mullahmugumby:

The Platytera (Madonna with Child) is from Santa Maria Assunta, Torcello, the rest are from the Basilica di San Marco, Venice

[mullahmugumby]

Interesting Church.. mosaic style and icons are Greek/Byzantine yet the writing seems to be in Roman Latin [as opposed to middle ages gothic script]..

is it in Ravenna, or the Veneto?

[Lysandros]

@mullahmugumby They are from Sicily (hence the Byzantine Greek model) and date to the Norman era (who therefore used Latin).

[LiturgicalChants]

Gothic script only developed and became used in the 1200's

most of the images are from before 1200. During the romanesque and pre-romanesque period much of the latin west's images were hieratic and held similar theology to the byzantine. It was the scholasticism and humanism that destroyed this in a 150 year process so that by 1300 it was..a new world. The late antique roman christian culture was severed by than to be replaced by a humanist culture by 1550. Crusaders exchanged ideas with Islam.
