Salvete, Quirites! Romam semper amavi et SPQR mihi praecarus est.
I wish Europe were as united as the Roman Empire. Rome remains the most splendid example for all countries in the world. If only the European Union were as virtuous as Rome...
I disagree on both accounts: the long o should be closer than the short. How much is of course impossible to know exactly, but the pronunciation used here seems credible to me. Similarly, the u of qu should be faint, ideally pronounced as a rounding of the lips simultaneous to the release of the stop.
All in all, the pronunciation in this video is excellent, in my opinion.
Yes it is perfect. I still am conviced that the long o when stressed is not as close to u as a nonstressed long o. I think we all three of us are right. So I share more the opinion of Italian speakers like Luke Amadeus Ranierius. Once again, I think all three of you are perfect in terms of pronunciation and definitely more better at Latin than me. But I might catch up in a few years, but that too is unlikley because you all are already tam culti. I like the variation in q as well!
The qu I mean it should be just a LITTLE bit more audible, but I'm not complaining really. I think the spelling is very revealing. I've heard Italians do the qu very clearly and smoothly in italiano "ideally pronounced as a rounding of the lips simultaneous to the release of the stop" but definitely more audible than in this video. But all of your aforementioned as you experiencially and and experimentally and scientifically know, is correct and true - the o and qu variations.
Great video! Your pronouncation was excellent, and even I, with my limited ability to follow spoken latin, could understand easily. Please continue to put further videos up for Nova Roma.

Clare nepos Atlantis, ades, quem montibus olim edidit Arcadiis Pleias una Iovi:
pacis et armorum superis imisque deorum 665 arbiter, alato qui pede carpis iter,
laete lyrae pulsu, nitida quoque laete palaestra, quo didicit culte lingua docente loqui,
templa tibi posuere patres spectantia Circum Idibus; ex illo est haec tibi festa dies.

The long o, if stress, shouldn't be so close to u, but no other compalints, but maybe the u at qu should be more audible.

I agree. However, in Italian, sometimes, but rarely, varies.
