Yes I did know what the words meant way back then, I think my voice and breath support was a work in progress, so most likely the faster tempo was for the sake of breath support.
Beautifully sung, but do you know what the words mean? This is the text of a prayer in which Jesus knows he is about to die and still surrenders himself to do the will of God and is willing to suffer and die (pour vous je veux suffrir et mourir sur la croix au Calvaire). The tempo doesn't seem the match the anguish of Jesus and the tenderness of the text.
solid performance. congrats...

My copy of this piece is by Stephan Bordese and not Fauré... I'm singing this for my music scholarship audition at uni :)

Wow love Un Priere in this up-tempo! I usually hear it at a much slower tempo but this...opens a whole new dimension of the song! Great! :)
