  • who's the chanter that starts off?

  • I know this is ensemble organum but however I can just point out Marcel Peres and Jean-Etienne Langianni, who are the others? They have such great voices!

  • Greatest chant of all time, and excellent video. Thanks so much.

  • Very well-made video, and beautiful chant.

  • Viva a Igreja! Fundadora do ocidente! Viva o latim lingua do mundo!

  • I agree, it sounds a lot more convincing. A much better name for this would be Hispano -Visigoth chant. From the Hipano-Visigoth ritual, that ironically was successfully suppressed in the Christian kingdoms -in favor of the Roman ritual- BUT SURVIVED in the Muslim occupied Spain.

    Equally it is the misconception that this chant has Arabic influence, an early Jewish influence is much more likely.

  • This sounds a lot more convincing to me than some of the other "Mozarabic chant" on youtube. People seem to think that Mozarabic chant should sound "Arabic" because of it's name, but as far as I'm aware of, the "Mozarabs" were simply Christians living under Arab rule in Spain (a rule that was apparently more tolerant than any Christian rule ever afterwards, certainly towards the Jewish population).

    This is beautiful and impressive and very dignified music.
