  • Digo lo que algunos. La grabación coge la obra empezada y no acaba en su final. Tambien la soprano abusa un poco del vibrato, pero por otra parte, la interpretación está bien matizada y con energía. Hay que tener en cuenta que es un O Vos Omnes a 8 voces, además. Enhorabuena.

  • It isn't the vibrato itself that is the problem, but the fact that the vibrato is uneven in many places, and occasionally causes the tuning to slip in and out. I agree with @benjaros2 that the vibrato is in places "excessive." Vibrato is a choice, and not a right or wrong one, but it sounds like the vibrato here comes from a lack of control rather than a controlled, stylistic choice. The sopranos do a wonderful job of not being shrill on those top notes, a feat to be sure.

  • Absolutely love this performance, too bad it's not recorded entirely...

  • Actually, there is one soprano that is standing out in volume from the female section. Ideally, this should not be the case but, sometimes, given the singer's perception of the acoustics of the place or the singer's experiencing allergy issues, the singer would tend to compensate for it and create imbalance. Here it is done in good taste so not much was affected by it. Great interpretation of the song.

  • The vibrato is a stylistic choice that modernizes the music. It is presumptuous to criticize for such a choice. Beautiful balance. Basses seem to have a unique quality that is rich and facile, not overly darkened.
