@HarmonicNature I'm not an expert on historical French phonology but it sounds right for context to me, plus see @iminlovewithBoA 's comment below.

Horrible !

[Mommak56]

Such a very hard song/lyrics to perform.  Beautiful.

[spiritualseeker1]

@Mommak56 not to hard im 12 and going to carnegie hall to sing

At Sbenard1: Mr. Wilberg is indeed ONE of the finest arrangers of Sacred music around. However, I would be cautious before referring to him as the GREATEST or FINEST in the world....that is unless you have heard every arranger that is currently in the world today.

cest un tres bon chanson

this song is very good

[nessalastchance]

i remember when i was in the St. Louis Childrens Chois, when i was 10 or 11, we sang a variant of this song. i enjoyed it very much :) my mom still asks me to sing it for her.

i love this piece and it holds a special place in my heart <3

i'm happy that this performance has been posted.

thank you :)

this lady MURDERS THE FRENCH LANGUAGE..uhhhhgghghhghg

[JFman00]

@jamincansing when this song (16th century) was written this is how French was spoken. Try singing it in time in a modern French accent and you'll find you don't have enough syllables.

[iminlovewithBoA]

@JFman00 they still do sing like this in some modern french, like in a song "tu l'importes sur moi" she sings it as "l'import-uh", but in speaking it was lost. Like in english time was once written as tyme and said as "teem-uh"

@JFman00 Oui, elle est tres excellent! et tres belle!

[HarmonicNature]

@JFman00 So you're certain that this is the correct pronunciation? I'm going to learn this piece, so I need to make sure that I have the French just right. Thanks! :)

[lutheranorthodoksi]

@jamincansing Moi, je parle français, et j'sais pas ce que tu veux dire. Elle prononce tout parfaitement, et si je me rappelle correctement, elle parle français aussi.

[sbenard1]

Mack Wilberg is the finest arranger of sacred music in the world today, and Ms. Fleming certainly does it justice!

[mapaford518]

I have not heard this before and it is lovely, thanks for the post.

[Ilovechristmas001]

This is an awesome piece! Her voice is fabulous:)

[JordanSean]

This is so beautiful!

[PhilFilth]

L'accent et la voix fade de la chanteuse gâche le tout

[omiolo1]

Simply AMAZING!
