Vigilate - William Byrd

[D184602]

Where are the tables for the four houses?

[SingAndGlorify]

Best performance of one of the most ethereal songs ever. Vigilate!

This piece is so hard to pull off, well done, great tempo. If done too fast you'd miss sole detail, and the fast notes begin to sound too ornamental.

I would prefer a slightly faster speed but I'm stil putting it on my Ipod. It's weird that andrew Carwood (Tenor) conducted my old choir and Patrick Craig (Alto) sung in my old choir. It was St Paul's Cathedral choir by the way

Did I mention this is the greatest recording EVER of this motet?

tenor II

I checked: voices are

1) sopranus

2) medius

3) countertenor

4) tenor

5) bassus

[renaissance27]

I checked and the edition I have is SATBarB which is the way the T.S. performed it. I believe it is originally written down a m3 though as you stated above.

Thanks
