Praetorius Christmas Vespers
Loading...
Uploaded by bfound on Nov 25, 2008
Musical excerpts from a CD recording by The Toronto Consort of the "Praetorius Christmas Vespers", with a selection of images of related paintings from the 16th and 17th centuries. The CD is based on a performance by the Toronto Consort, which reconstructs a possible vespers service for Christmas as it might have sounded in a large north German church. The music was composed by Michael Praetorius in the early 17th century. Visit the Toronto Consort website at http://www.torontoconsort.org. Video production by David Fallis and Bill Found.

This is just total, pure, unadulterated, exequisite, unbridled ecstasy. Beautifully performed, wonderful polyphony and harmonies. What more can be said - except I wish I'd written it!! Really glad to find this gem.

Simply beautiful. Glorious visuals. Do listen to "Come thou Redeemer of the Earth" arranged by Sir David Willcocks and which was played during the ending credits of the movie "Doubt".

"Puer nobis nascitur" also appears in his Christmas Midnight Mass (recorded by the Gabrieli Consort & Players recording). This setting though is more "Vespery"
