Very, very good. I've sung this in a mixed choir, and an all male-choir, but you ladies nailed it. Your blend was wonderful, and it didn't sound "open and airy". No intonation issues either!
@MultiKoolKat and thats y ur chior proably looks like a deer caught in headlights with ZERO energy watsoever, theres no rule that says u can't move during a performance, they're obviosly not at a competition or festival, my district conductor told us to do the same thing just to keep time cause it went frum 4/4 time to 3/4 time and it just helped us to keep the rythm. ur just ignorant (def. of ignorant, unknowing/ arrogant in topic or descusion)
Yes, some problems with Latin pronunciation, but overall a very nice performance. I love the tempo and your balance and blend are very good!! Great job!
It's quite good, but I have to agree that it would be better if you worked on your pronunciation -- if the vowels don't match it's very difficult to stay on the right pitch, and that was obvious in some of the more difficult places here. Overall not bad, though.
We sung this song at region choir. magnificent! beautiful vowels... to fast at the end for my taste. I prefer to put a little of decrescendo at mirabillia EE-Us. More depth and 1:29-1:30 that was a huge breath. Isn't it better to take breaths at different moments? Beautiful performance!
It's "annuntiate" and "benedicite." Using the Italian pronunciation (Ecclesiastical or Roman rules), the cluster "ti" followed by a vowel will become [tsi] (there's a little T before the S sound). Any time there is a "c" followed by an "i" or "e," the "c" goes from being pronounced as a [k] to being the English "CH" sound you here there.
lacking depth in the vowels, though very technically sound. some pronunciation problems, i prefer ah-noon-chee-AH-teh. more standardized and more widely accepted, though "SEE-ah-teh" is typical for ecclesiastical latin in some regions in austria.
My middle school advanced choir is singing this song in the same version for region, but with the basses and the tenors...its cool how the girls get to sing their part here.
the advanced choir that im in is going to sing that exact version! go spring oaks middle!! looking forward to singing it in washington d.c. this march!!
my select ladies choir and i are singing this for UIL in a couple of weeks, it's pretty amazing but we have trouble in the "etbenedicite" part, we sharp terribly at the end, all the time. is this 4 part?
great performance by a real "live" (as opposed to "skeletal") choir - sound quality ist hideously ear-rending, though...

Don't emphasize much on the "t" and it should be modulated. It's a renaissance period song. Tsk.
