I an going to sing this with my choir and also the Nunc Dimitis. Now I' ve heard it, I'm pleased, because it is beautifull music. And this choir is singing good.

Well I have heard Choirs from Rotterdam singing English and German and French in away it sounded as if the were singing Rotterdam language with an foreign accent. It is not the people or the country how a foreign language is sungen, it is how much attention the choirmaster gives to the pronunciation of it.

2009 and Stanford is still going strong....like the ravens in the Tower of London.... when choirs stop singing Stanford then will the CofE be truly dead!!
mmmmm just a bit of exageration on my part perhaps but Stanford in all his guises has been a very large part of my Anglican worship over the years!!

Really good!
A point to watch is the continuity of sense:
- and my spirit hath rejoiced (breath) in God my saviour.
- for he hath regarded (breath) the lowliness of his handmaiden
- all generation (breath) shall call me blessed
- etc.
The muusic is often in two bar phrases for words that cover four bars.

Pardon my ignorance, for where is Breda ?

Breda is a city in the south of The Netherlands, counting 170.000 people. According to Dutch standards it's a big city.

Yes, you are right. The alto parts in our choir are sung by boy altos and counter-tenors. We have about 8 boy altos and 4 counter tenors.

The Nunc is only for TB until the gloria, which is for SATB. The arpeggios are in Stanford in G aren't they?

Stanford in G the Mag is for Treble Solo and choir and has the arpeggios, indeed. The Nunc is for Bariton solo and choir.

very good, Stanford in Bb is one of my favourites(Stanford In A being my fave). Have you sung the nunc dimittis of this? A few comments, it feels a little slow but their english is very very good.

Thank you for your reaction. We also sing the Nunc Dimittis of this, in services. As I remember it's only for tenor and base, but also very beautiful. When you say we perform it too slow, I agree, but that's a choise from our master of music I think.;-)
