I'm singing this in my school's choir! This is my favourite movement! I'm an alto! :D
-
que puedo decir, solo que es abrumador e inspirador, fantastico
-
I actually felt that the only parts that consistently shone through in this recording were the sopranos and tenors, which is a shame, because Vivaldi is wonderful to sing as an alto. The instrumental part just drowned out the altos and bases here.

Ah, my favorite part of the Gloria! It's fun being an alto. <3

Vivaldi=the most underrated composer
-
I remember having to lead the tenor section of this, and I couldn't even read music. Just the only one who had rhythm. Still, it was our favorite piece of Vivaldi's gloria.

i love this song :X...i sang it in a choir...it's magnificient :)
-
hurray for the basses! And everyone else! :) And the decrescendo at the end makes a lot more sense - I doubt Vivaldi would have written a descending line crescendo.
-
@mikehardcastle good point -- neither the decrescendo as performed nor the score marking are Vivaldi's own, as dynamic indications are historically later additions to scores. Both versions represent performer, not composer intentions -- and you're right, it's bloody hilarious.

Nice recording. Funny, the last vocal line is written with a crescendo to fortissimo, however the recording actually does the opposite.
