I just watched them and was weirded out by their sitting position. I actually walked out of the program as I could not get past it. It is not the convention. But thats my opinion. Program announcements of this group should indicate that this is how they will perform so the public is warned and can decide whether they want to watch.

Where's that vibrato coming. Is it with the recording or the choir itself?
-
I love Lauridsen's work, but I have to say, he has a definite style, bordering on sameness, this is very similarly written to Lux Aeterna. Very gooey, legato, and based around one chord.
-
the voices are nice, but there is zero pitch balance. it kind of sounds like someone wiggling the pitch bend gadget on a keyboard.
-
Wait... we actually did 2 versions of this piece and this one we actually did 2 years ago, and the first comment I posted was about the other 'O Magnum mysterium' we performed. Personally, I like this one better... =-)
-
My chamber choir sang this song too... It's sooo beautiful, but when we were learning it it was like... "how is this all gonna come together and sound good??" but in the end, here is what is made a beautiful arrangement of chordal harmonies and 'O Magnum Mysterium'

WHOO! This piece can be performed so many different ways! Great job with the feel of it. This sounds so natural. No reverb, no special effects. The way it should be.
-

-

-

I could not disagree more profoundly. I have sung this piece on numerous occasions; and while this group is perhaps not perfect, it is nonetheless a credible performance. So far as their performing sitting down, why should this matter? Admire their performance for what it is, or watch another ... but please don't waste time with such specious criticisms.

Well Madz also not the original one who sings while sitting.if you go back in time, Madrigal singing, brought to England from Italy in the 16th century, was at first an informal type of private entertainment at the castle and country homes of the landed gentry. Frequently, the lords and ladies performed the music themselves as they sat at dinner in the Great Hall.
