By the way, may I ask who the soloist on this is? She's great.

[MonteverdiChor]

She is studying classical voice at the local academy of music and doesn't want to be named for the moment.

Und übrigens vielen Dank für den netten Kommentar auf Deutsch!

Medal of Honor Frontline Soundtrack - Operation Market Garden- That is a great piece orchestrated inspired by this piece here

Interesting to have a discussion on a rather dead language and its pronounciation... closest to how (Roman) Latin could've sounded is to listen to Romanian...which in its grammar and vocabulary comes closest to classical Latin

@alt3etf

Why do you claim knowing how latin is pronounced correctly?

Perhaps you do some research. You can e.g. easiliy start with wikipedia: "Latin spelling and pronunciation"

And who knows... perhaps you are hating youself then. :)

But I don't want to be offensive. There are certainly different traditions pronouncing the latin language in different countries.

[alt3etf]

The soloist is fantastic. i hate it when people sing latin,and don't sing it correctly. fabulous!

I hope through the knowledge given to us by John Rutter! My ears are too selfish .... Hihi

Quality of such hearing, is not it?

Hier mal wieder ein netter Kommentar auf Deutsch... ;)

Ich finde, Ihnen ist hier wirklich eine ganz fantastische Interpretation gelungen, die dem wunderschönen Stück absolut gerecht wird! Vielen Dank dafür, es ist wirklich eine Freude, doch so wertvolles Kulturgut hier auf Youtube zu finden.

Ich wünsche dem Chor weiterhin viel Erfolg und Gelegenheit für noch viele tolle Interpretationen! Mit vielen Grüßen aus Berlin.

@Petronyc where in the score does it say it has to be sung by a boy? it just says soprano solo, rutter's version is with female soprano, and the other two versions I have are with women also

[CalmBefore6]

@Petronyc well, their hard to find^^, they especially keep away from catholic churches these days :D (had to be done)
