Ensemble Organum, Marcel Peres - Tantum Ergo

[alconcerto]

Divine.

[PipeOnkel]

Defend the christian Europe before it is too late and we all perish in flames !!!

[narciazyk]

piękno



[lichtbroeder]

Beautiful! Almost has a Russian Orthodox sound to it.

[Robotnik]

Angelic Glory runs right throughout this hymn. God Bless those who hear this and its spiritual edification and may the prayers of St Thomas Aquinas be with the faithful.

[walekfan]

przy Ensemble Organum najlepiej zamknąć oczy i cofać się w czasie...

[RamonMiFaSol]

Just bello, bello just as heaven intended. I wish I lived in the time of St Thomas Aquinas just to hear him and his brothers singing it.

[LouisvilleTorn8o]

Those guies are perfectly in tune! That's the longest amen I've ever heard!

Does anyone out there know anything about this composer, what century he lived in, etc?

[eref2000]

@LouisvilleTorn8o I think it was written by a certain Anonymous... :)

[DeHeld8]

@eref2000

Haha, Hail Anonymous!

Perhaps they should make a statue of Anonymous...

[Killermuffin1]

@DeHeld8 Correction to eref2000, the author is known. He is St. Thomas Aquinas, a reknowned doctor of the Church.

[roquefort88888]

@Killermuffin1

Well the original question was, who is the composer, which usually means "who wrote this music"?

So Anonymous is right - or Traditional Corsican to give him his full name :D

The text is, of course, the last two verses of "Pange Lingua" - Dr Tom Aquinas...

[Killermuffin1]

@LouisvilleTorn8o It was written by the famed St. Thomas Aquinas in the thirteenth century.

[hurricaneomega]

this is a great song. I wish it was on itunes. The amen alone takes almost a minute, and most of that is just the first syllable.

[GermanC1000]

Heavenly music indeed. The Ensemble Organum and the Hilliard Ensamble under Paul Hilliermay be some of the finest performers of this music.

For those of you looking for sheet music, I found this Website: organum-cirma.fr/organum-cirma - Under "Publications" on the right hand side the Ensemble Organum provide the very scores they use, beautifully printed as well.

God bless all!

[Casivellanos]

Ce chant prend aux tripes.

Epoustouflant.

[hwoods01]

omgomgomgomgomgomgomgomgomg

[oneb14]

Amen.

[1966Antz]

I only have a printed copy of the music sheet. If you are interested I can send it by mail. It only needs to be scanned

[lauradegaspari1]

I would be very grateful

Laura

[omoetamo]

[SpartanMan80]

[felipearodriguezb]

@SpartanMan80 I wrote it down. Send me your email and I will send it to you.

[b2sargent]

@felipearodriguezb Hi felipe I would love to see your rendition of this! b2sargent gmail

Beautiful

[waspswatter]

EXQUISITE

[benjaminz6]

this is incredible! Im speechless!

St Thomas Aquinas is a Genius

[irgy709]

@benjaminz6

did Aquinas write the words?

[Prakokon]

@irgy709 yes,

[benjaminz6]

"Tantum Ergo Sacramentum," while usually treated as a hymn of its own, is actually the final two verses of the "Pange Lingua Gloriosi," a Eucharistic hymn that was composed by St. Thomas Aquinas for the Feast of Corpus Christi.

[DAAVEED1590]

I love this style of chant,

probably the best version of Tantum Ergo

I will pray that this style of chanting is restored in the Roman Church

[Okzcarian]

Doskonałe!!

[levbenjamin]

Now I know how it sounds in heaven when the angels praise God
