Giovanni Palestrina - Missa Papae Marcelli - Kyrie

this isn't "crusin' in your car" music bro. this is "stone cold lampin' to some motherfuckin' palestrina" music. you don't have to be some high-class music major to appreciate this shit.

This is my Jam before hockey eh?

i find it hard to believe people enjoyed listening to this...I can't ever see myself crusin in my car and deciding..."im going to put on kyrie by giovanni palestrina." (i had to watch this for school btw)

Do you usually judge things according to what you can do while cruisin in you car? Good luck!

Learn how to spell.

It's sad that we live in such a culture populated by people who listen to crap and don't appreciate the genius of pieces like this.

Mature a bit, and don't judge pieces on what they're like when you're "crusin in your car"

No offense meant, but am I the only one who thinks the tempo is a bit hurried?

yes

I agree. The tempo seems too fast. Palestrina's music should "breathe" more. This tempo rushes the phrasing and doesn't allow each line to fully develop as a phrase - especially where cadences overlap - as the singers rush to take a breath. Still, it's hard to screw up such such a beautiful piece when you are working with (obviously) very competent musicians. Preference is ultimately irrational - even when it comes to tempi, I suppose.

the higher voice u hear is young boys singing.
