I come by here and watch this periodically. You only get better with each viewing. I think I am getting a crush on the alto though *grin*... you guys are so awesome!! ;o)

[EnsembleDEUM]

@DoctorJay7 ah ah... thanks!

[alartandy]

Terrific harmony as always plus the audio and video quality is so much better than previous efforts. Two cameras?

[EnsembleDEUM]

@alartandy

this time we have recorded in a different way than previous videos.

First of all recording the audio ( using a Zoom H4n)... and then recording the video in playback (using one videocamera - Sony CX 115E, with 3 different takes)...

No effects on the audio, because we recorded in a small church with a good reverber itself...

the video is posted in HD

If you watch the video of "Fata la parte", on the second part you can see the trick ;)

@EnsembleDEUM

Ah, that explains it. As a request I hope you will send up a re-do of "Pastyme With Good Company" in HD color. On the audio portion the four of you were hitting the notes with perfection but the video looks like it was shot in a snowstorm.

@alartandy and if you look closely you can see Santa Claus in the background ;)

I absolutely love the bass singer in this song. Singing bass for this song in my choir, I know how rewarding it can be to pull it off well. The fact that only one person per section creates this amazing sound, blows me away. Great job, all of you.

very very good tune guys you are awesome and good quality

[DoctorJay7]

Stunningly beautiful... nice job guys, this is one of my favorite Madrigal pieces and you did it justice...

[metamurph]

Let's get some recordings out. Love these two pieces.
