  • @radaphhesig No I don't get the 'point'.

    He had to write 2 cantatas per week, or even more. He did it, and he wrote as many as he could, and they're all masterpieces. With Vivaldi it's the same. It sounds more like a matter of taste here not something important.

  • Excellent performance.

  • Really invigorating, i sang it few years ago with my choir and had a real problem to keep up with lyrics, although we were not near this fast

  • The song the angels were singing at the end of Dante's Purgatorio ^_^

  • It's Psalm 113 for the Vulgate Bible. For us this comes from Psalms 114 and 115 xD

    To God only be the glory.

  • The piece is beautiful and has nothing to envy other pieces of Vivaldi or other composers´. I prefer the English Chamber Orchestra/John Alldis Choir version, though, with Vittorio Negri. It´s slower, more subtle and very delicate but full of feeling at the same time.

  • Hermosa pieza musical, las voces son extraodianarias, muy bello en verdad.

  • now, if you compare this specific psalm with other psalms by Vivaldi (like Nisi Dominus or Laudate Pueri, for example) you can feel the immence difference - those are of an altogether other league

  • It is nice but it is apparent that Vivaldi did not entertain any grand ambitions in relation to this psalm.

    In other words, while composing this psalm, he was merely doing his work (and doing it well, to be sure) - he was not trying to do anything special.

    Most compositions of most composers before Beethoven (even of the greatest of them) are like that.

    Consider the sole fact that Bach had to write 2 cantatas per week and you get the point
