[MrDustytiger]

I think they are wonderful for middle schoolers yes some pronouning errors but hey no one is perfect lol my wife song the gloria in excelsis deo in high school choir and had the lead first suprano solo so its cool they did so well

[anhabelle]

wtf is eckschellsis? that's horrible. but beautifully sung.

[liferockz7]

i like this song very much, does anybody knows who is the composer of this beautiful piece?

thank you.

[SirLeeTehPwnzor]

Although small pronouncation error where they should pronounce excelsis's "c" as "ch" it was mistaken by "sh" at least they tried, +1 from me along with my deepest support, in the end it's just a performance of a High School Choir and i believe it will be better and better by the time.

[nightmarejack7]

@SirLeeTehPwnzor

This is actually a middle school choir. Learning stages here. These guys are now in the

high school concert choir. Oh, and thanks. :)

[laurentiusho]

@SirLeeTehPwnzor

This choir sang beautifully and there are no pronounciation mistakes - in ecclesiastical Latin the "c" of excelsis is pronunced as "sh". It is far better than choirs singing "sel-sis" or "chel-sis" that I hear everywhere.

[SirLeeTehPwnzor]

@laurentiusho C in ecclesiastical latin : "C coming before e, ae, oe, i, y is pronounced like ch in Church e.g. caelum = che-loom ; Cecília = che-cheé-lee-a".

[dj88live]

complimenti :-D

[metalhaesle]

excelsis != ekschelsis. sprechen die microsoft excel auch wie ekschel aus? is ja füüüürchterlich ;-) der rest ist ok

[Supermassively]

@metalhaesle Yeah, I hate bad Latin pronunciation.

It's pronounced "ex-kelsees" - not "ek-shell-sees".

[SirLeeTehPwnzor]

@Supermassively neither both, it's pronounced as "ex-chell-sees", ch like in "China".

In the video, it appears like they failed to pronounce "CH" and make it sound like "SH"

[Supermassively]

@SirLeeTehPwnzor Please take six years of Latin, and then you can come back and tell me how the language is pronounced. Ecclesiastical Latin is a perversion and a joke. There is no "ch" sound in real Latin at all. They're pronouncing the language incorrectly, plain and simple.

[SirLeeTehPwnzor]

@Supermassively What do you know about "Ecclesiastical Latin"? With your comment, you just mixed up everything... I studied Theology, and in Europe, not USA. I was in some certain Masses *including Gloria in excelsis* and I'm pretty sure of what I said. And right now I'm studying medicine and my Latin knowledge is perfectly fresh and I use Latin words all the time, which I am pretty sure that all those overcomes 6 years of Latin. . . so, Ecks- Chell- Sees

Thanks

[Supermassively]

@SirLeeTehPwnzor With my comment, I stated fact. Go and read about the evolution of the Indo-European language family, and you will see the chronology of how each language split off from another.

Indo-European - Italic - Latin-Faliscan - Latin - Classical Latin - Ecclesiastical Latin

Who gives a shit where you studied Theology? You studied THEOLOGY. I studied LATIN for six years. You know nothing of it. And studying medicine? NO Latin word in medical terminology is pronounced correctly.

[Supermassively]

@SirLeeTehPwnzor Seriously, nobody could make such an uneducated post. Either you have some mental handicap that prevents you from seeing reality, or you're just trolling at this point.

[SirLeeTehPwnzor]

@Supermassively I have to congrate you now, you succeeded trolling me. I will let people decide which is correct, your truth or The truth which I also believe. I will never understand why you insist on falsified ideas of yours though, was it hard to just learn the correct form of a simple letter than trolling some random guy who actually knows on internet? I won't reply again, talk to the hand, troll.

[Supermassively]

@SirLeeTehPwnzor Yeah, now I know for sure that you're trolling. What an uneducated piece of trash.

I should have known when I saw "TehPwnzor" in your name. Little preteen trolls always have stupid shit like that in their usernames.

Please take a Latin class. Thanks.

[etierik]

@metalhaesle Wie soll man es an aussprechen?

Wissenschaftlichte Aussprache: C = K (man hat mittlerweile rausgefunden, dass die alten Römer das C immer wie K aussprachen)

Kirchliche Aussprache: C = tsch (in der Kirche wird das Latein so ausgesprochen alsob es Italienisch wäre)

Normale Aussprache für 'Gloria in Excelsis Deo' in Holland ist, das C überhaupt nicht auszusprechen.

Wer sagt mir was dann richtig ist?

[metalhaesle]

@etierik die kirchenlateinische aussprache des C ist meines wissens Z wie in caesar und nicht das italienische tsch.das hört man sehr gut,wenn man mal dem papst auf latein zuhört.im wort excelsis geht das X (gesprochen KS) in das C (gesprochen TS) über.durch die verschmelzung dieser zischlaute hört man oft nur noch "ekselsis".richtig ist,dass es verschiedene möglichkeiten gibt,das wort auszusprechen. meine empfehlung:man muss den kontext beachten. es ist ein kirchenlied,kein altrömisches.

[etierik]

@metalhaesle Im Kirchlateinischen heißt C schon 'tsch', denke mal an 'Dona nobis pacem', das wird augesprochen als 'dona nobis paatschem'.

beim heutigen Papst vielleicht nicht - wenn der Italienisch spricht, kann man ihn kaum verstehen wegen seinem deutschen Akzent...

[metalhaesle]

@etierik das ist weniger sein deutscher akzent, als die in der katholischen kirche schon seit langem verwendete deutsche aussprache des lateinischen (nicht des italienischen! italienisch spricht der papst natürlich mehr oder weniger italienisch aus.) "patschem" würde man nur singen, wenn man die italienische aussprache verwendet (was in england und den usa - vielleicht weil es die sprache der oper ist - viele tun, wie man sieht). ansonsten eben klassisch "pakem" oder "patsem".

[metalhaesle]

@etierik "However, ecclesiastics in some countries follow slightly different traditions. For instance, in Slavic countries and in German-speaking ones the letter "C" before the front vowels /e/ and /i/ commonly receives the value of /ts/ and speakers pronounce "G" in all positions hard, never as English J. " ~wikipedia

[etierik]

@metalhaesle Okay, so that means Church latin sounds different in Germany and in Slavic countries. Interesting, didn't know that! Holland certainly follows the English tradition here by pronouncing it as if it were Italian.

Personally, I hear the pope speaking Italian more often because I work as a translator for TV so I often have to subtitle what he says. I often have to look it up on Vatican . va because I can't understand him...
