  • Llena el alma

  • Greetings from Flanders :D

    We "produced" the best musical componists back then. All bought to Italy..

  • sempre di più il futuro della musica si trova nel passato

  • El canto gragoriando es precioso claro que sí, pero personalmente, y sin faltar al respeto a esta versión bastante bien hecha, me agrada más escucharlo en la voz de los hombres... de cualquier forma, gracias por permitirme escuchar esta versión

  • awesome! I wish stuff like this would show up on our classical radio station sometimes...

  • Thank you.

  • O sacrum convivium, in quo Christus sumitur;

    recolitur memoria passionis ejus;

    mens impletur gratia;

    et futurae gloriae nobis pignus datur.

    O sacred banquet, wherein Christ is received;

    the memorial of his passion is renewed;

    the soul is filled with grace;

    and a pledge of future glory is given to us.

    (Alleluia)

  • Well, nuns were also existing and they were also singing by accident. So the comment is not enterely correct.
