The irony is too much. Paul Revere warning of the arrival of the colonial oppressors is juxtaposed by the choral performers wearing masks. Apparently willfully choosing oppression over sovereignty. Avant-garde expression at its finest!
Thats great song
Fanny, nasceu quatro anos antes de seu irmão Felix, mas faleceria no mesmo ano de Felix, aos 42 anos de idade. É difícil determinar quem influenciou quem, já que a marca Mendelsshon de fazer permeia a produção dos dois irmãos. De Fanny, o que conhecemos nos mostra uma autora de excepcional competência e de uma cativante sensibilidade feminina! Viveu pouco, mas soube mostrar a que veio, e certamente muito mais haverá a ser mostrado. Já Felix seu irmão, produziu uma enormidade de obras que são ouvidas em áudio e agora também em áudio e vídeo, e como Mozart que também teve vida curta está presente nas melhores salas de concertos com seu monumental legado. Acredito que a cada ser iluminado que Deus coloca neste mundo, o faz com encargo e tempo determinados, ao final dos quais os chama ao seu reino, talvez para novas incumbências.
“The Road Not Taken” Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.
Exquisite. Thank you so much.
Your channel contents are very good. But due to some problems in your channel you are not getting views, audience accordingly. For this you need to optimize your channel well. Are you interested in optimizing your channel?
Finally, I found this Key of Dflat !!! Bless you all, and Beautifully sung !!! 😇😇
What a wonderful surprise for the last day of Chanukah! Though you must have meant it for a more Christian purpose. I will always remember the antphonies of this first movement when I was in Zamir Chorale as a college sophomore. I am disappointed at the lack of a boy soprano in the second movement - but the soprano's voice is beautiful indeed.

Absolutely shameful to wear a mask while giving a vocal performance
I love how the strings are allowed to really sing. They’re almost an afterthought in some performances, but here, they fully complement the choir. This makes a big difference, for example, at 2:25 where the transition back to the strings is so lush and rich
Unreal presentation. Beautiful. I can't believe the audience was so small though, are there no Christians left in Mass?
Herzliche Grüße aus München an Massachusetts. Schöne Musik aus dem alten ital. Museum rausgeholt!
Danke!
singing with masks on ruined it… faith people!
Massive choir! Perfect! It´s incredible all that deep mystic emotions were present in a 20 year old Mozart! Oremus...
Wunderful, but underrated work, excellent performers!
THE DAY OF THE LORD IS AT HAND!!! THE RAPTURE IS IMMINENT NOW!!! BE FOUND HEAD TO TOE IN THE TRINITY!!!

Gorgeous singing - a balm for these troubled times!
