[vonbiron]

Ecce quomodo moritur iustus nemo percipit corde: viri iusti tolluntur et nemo considerat: a facie iniquitatis sublatus est iustus, et erit in pace memoria eius.

Very good indeed. Not perfect, but still wonderful. As a young teenager, mysteriously, I used to listen to this piece as recorded by the Slovak Teachers (male) Choir (and I still think that is the best version I have heard).

But why "ečče", "pačem"..? You seem to be too close to Italy ;)

If you have any additional question I will be most glad to check them out for you in slovenian network :D our choir sings two of his songs, one of them pater noster, which i recommend to everyone with musical taste

answer to scronx

jacobus handl gallus is has slovenian background. I cannot say it is widely known in slovenia, but anyway... he was a composer and wrote dozens of madrigals and motets. although there is lot unknown about his life he represents one of the greatest renaissance's authors. he was drawn on slovenian note in 1991 as the greatest composer of our nation.

The choir is really good. The sound is reminiscent of the Harvard Glee Club and Radcliffe Choral Society under the great G. Wallace Woodworth, which is saying a good deal.

[scronx]

Gallus/Handl was a great composer. His work is deeply spiritual and highly skilled. One piece of his, Ascendit Deus, changed my life -- we sang it all over the place in the Upsala Choir in the early 70s. It's worthy of Bach. The Wikipedia article on him covers his various names, tho I'm still stumped on the original etymology of Carniola,which Wiki says goes back to the ancient Carni tribe which lived in what became Carniola, Slovenia. Searched Handl in Ebay, got that 200 tolar bill showing him!

[urssulas]

so tru! ;)

[zajecjan]

po francosko kvečjem Le Coq ;)

[secnikneza]

this is an amazing song! and who got haendl?!

[zajecjan]

Well this is marvellous song...And btw...the composer's name is Jakob Petelin...or Iacobus Gallus in latin...but where did you get HANDL??He was a Slovene composer ;)

[adagioofwight]

Look up Handl in Grove - "Handl may originally have been called Petelin, meaning 'rooster', of which 'Handl' is the German diminutive and 'Gallus' the Latin equivalent."

Ja hura za slovenijo !!!

Drugače je imel gallus še druge vzdevke ne samo Haendl, recimo češko: Kohoutek ali pa francosko: La Coq

english:

hooray for slovenia !!!

Haendl was his german nickname,

he had many others, for example:

CZ : Kohoutek

F: La Coq

All of them mean 'rooster' like Petelin does.

[urssulas]

he was slovenian composer, but got loads of other names, because he traveled and lived in other countries too (like germany, hungary etc.). because of those names: handel and kohetek etc. germans and hungarians claimed that he was of their nationality, but because of his addition in name carniolus (he signed himself with this), which proved that he was slovenian;) - and here is another proof, that all slovenian neighbours and (and similar) want to have whats ours ...
