Uploaded by jamesS0289 on Jul 6, 2008
Sung by Harry Christopher's 'The Sixteen'
There is information on the video itself about this piece and Palestrina. More, however, can be found on the Wikipedia article. :)
Three sections:
Greek - from start until 1.26min
Latin - from 1.26min until 2.53min
Greek - from 2.53min until the end

@2008805 This liturgical song is the Catholics' common linkage to the Orthodox Churches before and after the Schismatic separation of the Western (Roman) and the Eastern (Greek) Orthodox Churches.

@weplaytheguitar There's no need to resort to Trinity symbolism to account for the 3 sections (Kyrie-Christe-Kyrie) in the music. There's a much more obvious explanation. The 3 sections in the music correspond to the 3 sections (Kyrie-Christe-Kyrie) in the Mass liturgy that the music serves.

@cooljason78 yes, you are correct. I took a music theory class and we studied this kyrie, and like all, they are in 3 parts to symbolize the holy trinity.

None of the Kyrie is in Latin. "Kyrie eleison, Christe eleison, Kyrie eleison" is all Greek.
The closest equivalent in Latin is "Miserere Domine, Miserere Christe, Miserere Domine."

Well, I was only copying what's in the little booklet that came with the CD.
Thinking about it, it makes sense that all of it is in Greek (given that "Khristos" has the vocative "Khriste"); but given that Latin ("Christus") also has the vocative ("Christe"), and that a lot of Latin ecclesiastical and scientific terms come from the Greek -- quite a lot of them being direct transltierations from one alphabet to another -- it wouldn't take much to believe that it's in two languages.

correct me if I'm wrong. This song has 3 parts (tertiary form) to symbolize the holy trinity?

It's very probable... I don't know that for sure, though. :)
