they should pronounciate [g],not [j]

[hmhbanal]

If you're referring to the old Latin, which the "gi" is pronounced as "ji", then you're right. But since it's eclessiastical (Latin during the domination of the Catholic chuch), then the "gi" should be "ji". Our choirmaster met Miškinis in person in a choral workshop in Barcelona, Spain last 2003. His choir in Lithuania gave us their score as a gift of friendship during a choral competition in Mainhausen, Germany that we joined.

oh,well i'm myself from lithuania and since our choir sings it too,i just thought i'd point it out.Sorry if i spelled something wrong,my english is quite lousy

[hmhbanal]

I'm the one who's lousy in spelling. Old latin for "gi" should sound like "geh" as in "get", eclessiastical (Roman catholic) latin's "gi" should sound like "ji" as in "gelatin" or the italian "gentile". DOn't worry about your english, we're both non-english speakers here. Thanks for the comment anyway.

If only we have the numbers, we could sing the song better. Thanks for the comment by the way. Mind if you can upload the San Beda Chorale's version of the song? I would love to hear it.

P.S. Sorry if I accidentally removed a comment here, hehe. You can repost it again, whoever you are. :-P

Very great dynamics! And the boys have very mature voices! Im doing this song for my choir except different version of the song of course lol

[Vygutis]

Wery great job. I remember this chamber choir during choirs competition in Bulgaria Varna'81 and in Mainhausen (Germany). In Varna this choir gets 1 place in chamber choirs group (our choir - second). Choir members are very friendly. Good luck :-)

i think there are different pieces of the same Miskinis' Ave Regina that were produced. I already saw 3 different scores...one even has the title AVE REGINA, reduced version. Maybe the UPCC piece and the San beda piece are different. but both choirs really sound well :)

[Girmute]

Hey, really great job! I like that all choir is perfectly in tone. :) Keep going!

[metallicmayhem]

I think their rendition is also nice.
