***
The back of the winter is broken
And light lingers long by the door
The seeds of the summer have spoken
In gowans that bloom on the shore
By night and day we’ll sport and we’ll play
And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
And we follow the heron home
In darkness we cradled our sorrow
And stoked all our fires with fear
These bones that lie empty and hollow
Are ready for gladness to cheer
Long may you sing of the salmon
And the snow-scented sound of your home
While the north wind delivers its sermon
Of ice and salt water and stone
By night and day we’ll sport and we’ll play
And delight as the dawn dances over the bay
Sleep blows the breath of the morning away
And we follow

About Monsieur's Departure
มุมมอง 2344 ปีที่แล้ว
We asked composer Fraser Wilson to tell us about 'Monsieur's Departure', a contemporary lute song that he wrote specially for our programme 'The Trials &Triumphs of Oriana'. It is a setting of Elizabeth 1's own poem, which is thought to have been written 'officially' concerning her break with the Duke D'Anjou, but which is often rumoured to be secretly about her love for Robert Dudley. The song...

“Follow The Heron”, by Karine Polwart, right? Beautifully done!
Pristine voices! The lutist was so attentive and played masterfully!
👏👏👏👏
Where is the trumpet 😂
This definitely shows that the Renaissance lute can indeed be played standing up, and perfectly well....
Angelic!
Not many comments mention the wonderful lute. Maybe as a guitarist who loves lute generally, I’m more prone to hear it.
Awesome and Stunningly Beautiful ❤❤❤
Words cannot express properly how beautiful this performance is. Thank you 🙏
That lute player is HOT🔥
...wonderful!!! listening from Connecticut in the USA!
Commovente!
Well done, well done. Thank you
昔 FMのプログラムで このような中世の歌の特集があった時 すべてを 📼に録音しました だけど 何故か 要らないと 判断して捨てて しまいました とても 後悔しています🥹
Sublime interpretación.... alimentando el Alma con Haendel...
Lyrics O sweet woods! The delight of solitariness! O how much do I love your solitariness! From Fame's desire, from Love’s delight retired, In these sad groves an hermit’s life I lead: And those false pleasures, which I once admired, With sad remembrance of my fall, I dread. To birds, to trees, to earth, impart I this; For she less secret, and as senseless is. O sweet woods! the delight of solitariness! O how much do I love your solitariness! Experience which repentance only brings, Doth bid me, now, my heart from Love estrange! Love is disdained when it doth look at Kings; And Love low placèd base and apt to change. There Power doth take from him his liberty, Here Want of Worth makes him in cradle die. O sweet woods! the delight of solitariness! O how much do I love your solitariness! You men that give false worship unto Love, And seek that which you never shall obtain; The endless work of Sisyphus you prove, Whose end is this, to know you strive in vain. Hope and Desire, which now your idols be, You needs must lose, and feel Despair with me. O sweet woods! the delight of solitariness! O how much do I love your solitariness! You woods, in you the faires
Thank you
Well......This channel is a new goldmine for me😗
Yeeeeeeees!!!!!!!! Soo beautiful😍
Ohhhhhhh.....Goosebumps all over😍😍😍
❤
Это самое лучшее исполнение
👏👏👏👏💐🌺❤️
I love your voice and your interpretation! Congratulation!
Wonderful voices !
...sera que los cantos sublimes, no son aptos para nosotros los tontitos Latinos ( no hay traducción a español) !?!?!?!. Pues no entendemos lo que cantan estas bellas voces...En todo caso, la utilizaremos como mantras de la buena espiritualidad.
Una pena que no pongan la traducción al español de lo que cantan estas bellas voces, para nosotros los tontitos Latinos.
Por qué "tontitos"?
Superb. The lute volume might have been a little higher.
Me parece el adecuado...
Siempre me ha gustado mucho esta pieza, y como la mayoría de la gente, también yo creía que era celestial. Recientemente he escuchado el testimonio de un músico de una experiencia cercana a la muerte. Él decía que escuchaba una música sublime. A pesar de ser un gran amante de Bach, como yo, y opinar que su música es muy espiritual, con lo que yo también estoy de acuerdo, dijo que la música que escuchó se parecía más a Handel, Chopin o el último periodo de Mozart. La música es un arte, y las artes nos pueden poner en contacto con lo sublime y lo divino. La vida existe después de la muerte, y cada pequeño logro, es una aportación al cielo. Paz y amor a todos 💜✨
Наверное, так ангелы между собой общаются. Просто завораживает.
Parabéns, from BRASIL!!!
