Alleluia: Vidimus Stellam

(We have seen his star)

An elaborate and jubilant Gregorian chant called Alleluia from the Mass for Epiphany. The word alleluia is a Latinized form of the Hebrew hallelujah (Praise ye the Lord). In this chant many notes are sung to single syllables of text. The long series of tones on ia is a wordless expression of joy and religious ecstasy.

@mathewizawesome No, you're annoying with your vast lack of appreciation for music other than the shit that's being mass produced today. If it weren't for this, polyphonic texture would never become popular and therefore your favorite little "catchy tunes" wouldn't exist. So before you open your ignorant mouth, how about at least try to appreciate different music and its importance to culture and history.
