@@flowbyers2825 I think Voces8 is superior to The Sixteen, and unquestionably so. They are just absolutely world class as individual voices and they combine flawlessly. I can’t think of a better ensemble on record, truly.
@@flowbyers2825 I absolutely agree- I love Voces8 especially on pieces that sound great with that unearthly clarity and purity of sound, but the sixteen has a glorious, magnificent, utterly human sound with dramatic depth. My latest favorite is the Gesualdo Six th-cam.com/video/o6rh0krDG_A/w-d-xo.html
They do good takes on various vocal pieces, but there are some that they cannot do better compared to the brilliance of past performers. Example: hearing the Hungarian choral group sing Biebl's Ave Maria drove me to tears; especially the first time I heard it done by them. VOCES8's performance did not come even close to getting the same reaction out of me. Another example would be just about any John Rutter piece; although I'd consider giving VOCES8 a chance if John ever conducted them.
I love the idea of them singing with very little vibrato, which helps their pitch stay in place. Also, they have the amazing ability to sing into each other’s voice.
Music stripped down to timbres in harmony,evolving/cascading as chords - that's choral.It's not flashy(think pop or opera) but I can't think of another sound bigger or more pure.
@@FLOWERSANDSUNSHINE22 To me scooping takes away,it's a habit people form along with adding vibrato to the end of phrases.Makes it sound formulaic,like go through the motions,translates as less genuine.
@@FLOWERSANDSUNSHINE22 When a person can make their voice sound like a wind instrument without any waiver/just a good tone it sounds magical.But better in that it's singing words that convey a recounting,idea or story.
I will be greatly disappointed, if! when I get to heaven, the angels do not sound as sublime as VOCES8. The first time I heard VOCES8, I fell in love with their beautiful sound and harmony they produce. That’s why I am listening to everything I see they have. That’s why I subscribed to them.
This is my favorite piece of music ever written, and is single-handedly responsible for my love of choral music. It is the standard to which I judge all "Amens" - it may not be technically wondrous, but it is perfection. From the moment I heard of Voces8, this has been at the top of my wish list. What a version. Thank you so much.
Same for me. We had an excellent chorale in high school. We sang this in a cathedral in new York with excellent acoustics and it was the most magical musical experience of my life.
Similar here. This is one of the top three songs I can remember from high school chorale that impacted me in a profound way. Beauty will save the world, and this song is full to bursting with beauty.
The combination of Byrd with Voces8 is just other-worldly. The human voice has not changed much in the 400 years since Byrd lived, and it will have sounded much like this when Elizabeth 1 was on the thone and protected Byrd from persecution - except Voces8 bring him to even higher heights here. He would be pleased I am sure.
As a Middle and High school choral and band teacher this is everything about just intonation and the harmonic series that I want my students to understand.
I’ve sung this many a time and it really gets under your skin. Perhaps the ultimate piece of polyphony that projects powerfully rich but wholly English understated emotion. A masterpiece that says everything whilst apparently not saying much at all. Beautiful rendition.
Quelle splendeur. William Byrd, merveilleux compositeur et VOCES8, ensemble enchanteur. J'aime infiniment cette musique angélique. Merci à ces artistes talentueux.
It is one thing to be a trained musician, but to have the sensitive heart and spirit to bring to life so many treasures which would have remained on the page, should bring delight as performers and listeners unite spirits in a place indescribable. Once again, thank each of you for what you do ever so well. God bless you and those you love, and Thank You immensely for what you share with those of us far flung as your audience. DJ in Knoxville TN
To sing Ave Verum it is needed a deep & profound reason to believe... In JESUS NAME we pray. Sacred 💓 Hearts of Jesus Christ and Virgin MARY her Sacred MOTHER.🌾❤️🙏.
What a beautiful performance of a beautiful arrangement. When I was in 8th grade, my 7th and 8th grade boys choir performed a shorter and simpler arrangement of this piece (SSA). As I recall we performed it In the spring of 1966. So, as I write this, it’s been 56 years since that performance. Yet, I still remember most of it. I cherish this music to this day.
Thank you again; Voces 8. You've moved me to tears once more! I, too, have waited for you to publish this Byrd repertoire favourite that, like many other choristers, I've sung hundreds of times, having learned it as a teenager more than half a century ago. Even back then, I was in awe of its impact on my own heart and soul, on those singing it with me, and on those in the congregation. Several seconds of total silence always seem to follow the last chord's fading away to nothing... In its liturgical context, it is a masterful work as it is a relatively simple piece, but as in all things, complexity is easy, whereas simplicity is mastery. IMO, it's an ultimate prayer, and you guys are the ultimate expression of St Augustine's words from the 5th century, "Qui bene cantat bis orat", being "whoever sings well, prays twice". Thanks again.
I do wish choirs performing on media like this listed the names & voice types of each of the singers. Beautifully sung & possibly Byrd's most beautiful work. Thank you VOCES8.
I was raised on The King's Singers interpretation. What can I say. It is different. It doesn't mean that it is worse! It shows different aspect of this piece an THIS is good! Well done!
I have sung this piece in a small ensemble and absolutely love it. VOCES8 does such stunning work; thank you. Perfection. The miserere makes me cry. And listen closely: there is an undertone in the Amen. I hope this is what heaven sounds like.
"Humans." When my best friend and I encounter something so ineffably beautiful or impressive we humans have created, he and I speak this single-word sentence.
@@vanessafletcher6710 😊 Hi Vanessa. Yeah, "Humans." It really is the perfect thing to say.

Los pianísimos son sublimes...sin duda una de la cosas más difíciles de hacer para cualquier grupo, ensamble, coro de cámara o coro completo, ellos lo hacen parecer fácil...pero no lo es. Bravo.
Comprehending the English translation while listening to the music is truly awe inspiring. There's nothing solemn about this music at all. It puts me at the foot of Christ's cross where I can examine His life and my life simultaneously. It's there where I find my true worth and value in Him alone and not in this fallen world. As modern day recording artist Casting Crowns said in one of their songs, "If your eyes are on the storm you'll wonder if I love you still. If your eyes are on the cross you'll know I always have and I always will."
This is perfect. This was my first piece of choral music (as a young listener), too -- (what I was to learn was) the _miserere mei_ (and its cross-relation) got me. This is just a perfect gem of chorale polyphony and super-sensitive text-setting. Byrd was as good as it gets (as is this performance!)
I am entranced by Voces8. Their precision, balance, and production of their videos is enthralling - I give a lot of credit to Barnaby, the artistic director, who focuses their extraordinary talent with others I’m sure. Beyond their singing, they offer education - the bringing forth of music in others. I am pretty certain that each member of Voces8 knows their importance in radiating this wonderful energy in the world, because they sing like it.
One of my most favorites.. this ensamblé is so very talented. I remember learning this very young and it’s always stuck with me. Such a gorgeous composure
This is an exquisite performance by the very talented Voces 8. Bravo! I loved it. One of the best! I must admit though, that my gold standard for this piece is the Kings Singers on their "English Renaissance" CD with the stunning voices of Countertenor David Hurley and Bass Stephen Connolly "bookending" the group.
This is my favourite choral music sung by The Tallis Scholars that Ive listen to for over 20 years. I have been keeping an ear out for another choral version of it ever since and I finally found it. Thank you. Added you to my music list. A brilliant and exceptional rendition. Talented singers of a very difficult work by Byrd. I love it. You serenaded my soul.
Ok, so I have dreamed of a Voces8 version of this. Some dreams come true. And I can't put it in words, but the sound before the "n" of the final "Amen" is sublimely-superb-more-than-perfect. I. just. can't. Thank you.
Stunning and absolutely breathtaking. I have sung this song I don’t know how many times and I’m thrilled to be singing it again at the 90th birthday celebration of my beloved high school choir. This is the version our dear director chose to demonstrate for us and it’s by far my favorite. Love it.
This is such a wonderful piece of polyphony... one of my absolute favorites, and... of course... a beautiful performance/interpretation from VOCES8! Thank you!!!
This beautiful motet, sung so perfectly here, was written to be sung during Holy Communion in the traditional Catholic Mass. "Ave verum corpus...Hail, the true Body..." Until a couple of years ago, we would sing this (not quite so well, but with feeling!) in the schola for our traditional Latin Mass (always packed, lots of young families) - but our modernist Pope despises this time-honoured Mass along with all tradition, and put such strict restrictions on it that the Latin Mass is now abolished in our area. So no more wonderful music like this. It's becoming as it was in Byrd's time - we'll have to have clandestine Masses again soon!
paced perfectly - just gorgeous. Have been listening to this piece for decades... Kings Singers, The Sixteen, King's College... all brilliant, none better than this. Hope to see you live in London soon.
It's music like this that makes this life worth living.
I completely agree with you. I'm so glad to live, today, when we have gorgeous music like this at our fingertips in an instant...
Nicely put. I feel the same.
@@christiankurek9225 I do, too. :D
@@MitchBoucherComposer
Igazad van. Erre még nem is gondoltam.
Depending on where you live, you may be able to attend a Latin Mass where this is done weekly. Toronto Oratory comes to mind.
Voces8 is the best vocal ensemble in the world and they prove it with every piece they record. Flawless work.
The Sixteen are different to Voces8 but every bit as good - love both!

A wonderful hommage as we approach the 400th anniversary of the master's death.

I always think that I am an atheist. But everytime I listen to this, my heart cries "Please have a mercy on me".
It's the Holy Spirit. Follow HIM. Pax Christi..
Domine Iesu Christe, Fili Dei. Miserere mei, peccatoris
He is gently waiting for you to invite Him into your heart. Do it!
Atheist or not. Jésus dont care if you believe in him. He's the personnification of the true love. A true love dont need return

Beauté, humanité et plénitude. MERCI
It's not just that they sing with their hearts, souls and voices, but with their faces also. Total immersion.
For those who may not know, "Ave Verum" means Hail the True Body (of Christ) in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the altar. 😊
One of the most beautiful things ever created and when sung with this level of perfection utterly exquisite.
