"Ut queant laxis" or "Hymnus in Ioannem" - a medieval Latin chant hymn for the feast of St. John the Baptist (June 24th), is the source for what we have come to know as the solfege syllables (Ut, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La). A creative mnemonic device, the first syllable of each phrase begins on an intervallic step above the previous, creating six tones of a musical scale, and the basis for the hexachord.
Sung by Donna Stewart (of Mignarda), from the 2014 album Adoro Te: Gregorian chant hymns & Marian antiphons, available at www.mignarda.com
The chant is sung at our preferred pitch standard of A=392, which we use in all of our music. But if you read the chant notation, you will notice the voice transposes the chant up to a comfortable pitch that optimizes delivery of the text. This common-sense approach of pitching the chant to where the voices are most comfortable is and always has been standard practice for any schola involved in singing Gregorian chant for the Latin Mass.
For the convenience of those reading the chant and singing along using the modern standard reference pitch of A=440, the voice begins on the pitch of Bb, a minor third higher than the initial notated pitch (G).
recorded live at the Shrine Church of St. Stanislaus, Cleveland, Ohio.
Ut queant laxis resonare fibris
Mira gestorum famuli tuorum,
Solve polluti labiis reatum,
Sancte Joannes.
Nuntius celso veniens Olympo,
te patri magnum fore nasciturum,
nomen, et vitae seriem gerendae,
ordine promit.
Ille promissi dubius superni
perdidit promptae modulos loquelae;
sed reformasti genitus peremptae
organa vocis.
Ventris obstruso recubans cubili,
senseras Regem thalamo manentem:
hinc parens nati, meritis uterque,
abdita pandit.
Sit decus Patri, genitaeque Proli
et tibi, compar utriusque virtus,
Spiritus semper, Deus unus,
omni temporis aevo. Amen
St. John, release the sins of our lips in order that your servants may be able to relate your wonderful deeds with full resound.
A lofty messenger comes from Olympus, revealing to your father your impending birth, your name, your conduct, and the sequence of your life.
That unbelievable heavenly promise set forth in a few words, when proven true by your birth, restored voice to the voiceless.
Lying darkly cradled in your mother's womb, you perceived the King abiding also in his chamber. Henceforth each set of parents, with hands outstretched, concealed their children's merits.
Glory be to the Father, and to the begotten Son and to you his comrade, of equal virtue. One God, for all times, all seasons, all generations. - เพลง
So basically Ut, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La are Bb, C, D, Eb, F, G which would be the first six notes of the Bb major scale and she is singing them with a tonal center that gives the song a Dorian feel (C Dorian). Re = C sounds like home. When I spontaneously sing worship songs they often have this feel for some reason , that is to say, they are often a mode as opposed to a major key (which is actually also a mode = Ionian).
David Icke brought me here. God Bless you, David. (Also, Enya NEEDS to sing this before her voice gives-out!).
One hopes you might consider that the chant has already been sung by a singer who understands the text and music in a natural acoustic with no electronic processing.
Me as well God bless :)
@@Mignarda He was only saying that Enya's voice, and music processing would go well with this song, and it would you pretensions seagull
Me too!!
@@eitenapples1879 Electronic processing can render the braying of a burro listenable. And it frequently does, as recording engineers know well. We are aware that this Enya person has a following but the music here has much more meaning than any electronic new age fluff piece, and it is sung in a natural voice with depth and understanding. You may have noticed that this recording is on our channel, not some pop star's channel.
The singing is so natural, clear and pure. Thank you.
I wake up and fall asleep to this hymn. Thank you for that gift. It changes my life.
Become a Catholic!

I listen to this to remember who I am why iam and why I choose to continue!
❤
God Bless you!
I feel so much sadness when I listen to this piece. Grief perhaps, from a time long ago where there were those much more connected to God than what I see on our planet today.
Made me weep instantly. Very strange
There are more people connected to god now !
That seems to be a problem for whoever is not
Namaste! You Get It, for sure.
@@grahammeyer-kv4wlsame!
Hope this is heard by the masses. Will be a blessing to many.
These are things that we should hear at church...this gives you that peaceful feeling and connection to God...and the feeling remains for a while. The other music that we hear in college...it is temporary emotional feeling that comes and then goes away feeling empty.
The music in church now is the worst. Only really old hymns can I tolerate. The nuns would sing in Latin at Stations of the Cross 1x a year. Sadly, Vatican ll changed the church.
Go to a pre-vatican 2 church (independent) and you will hear great music like this.

That's your opinion. I am here for the musical history. Not religion. There are many more different types of music other than this that gives me far more of the peaceful full feeling you described far more than this could ever do although this music is still lovely to me as well. There is no objective universal truth to your comment.
Thank You Jesus
So beautiful. Makes me long for God
All in One...Nothing is separate from the source.
This Hymn has all the solfeggi frequencies in it and John the Baptist discovered them from the Book of Numbers.
Precisely. Len Horowitz led me here. Sacred Solfeggio

Translation:
O, for your spirit Holy John, to chasten lips sin polluted, fettered tongues to loosen, so by your children might your deeds of wonder mightly be enchanted.
Lo! A swift herald from the skies descending, bears to your Father promise of your greatness; how He shall name you, what your future story duly revealing.
Scarcely believing message so transcendent. Him for a season power of speech forsaketh. Till Your wondrous birth, again returneth, Voice to the voiceless.
You, in your mother’s womb darkly cradled, knew your great Monarch, biding in His chamber. Whence the two parents, through their Offspring’s merit, Mysteries uttered.
Praise to the Father, to the Son begotten, and to the Spirit, equal power possessing, one God whose glory, through the lapse of ages. Ever resounding, Amen (or Alleluia)
Beautiful prayer if you actually know Latin. It is basically a comfort to St. John outlining that he will live on through his children. Also Jesus, His parents, His birth, His credence to God the Father, the miracles He performed, and the Holy Trinity for divine eternity.
God bless you ❤
Latin Mass of the Saints sings only chorale hymns, occasionally an organ or violin. These hymns move mind and spirit towards God, bands only move the body.
Just as there is a reason for you to be alive.
There is a reason for every word that proceeded out of the mouth of God God Yeshua.
So is there a reason for this verse for your life.
Exodus 20:4-6
This is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. Glory be to god.
I am not as religious, but this one here just made me feel so calm. Thank you for this.
Turn to Jesus! 🙏🙏🍆😊

Anyone has a choice in what they believe. believing is all we have. there is no "knowing", no proof. even atheists who believe in abiogenesis and the big nothingness that exploded as the origin of the world and the origin of life believe, in these assumptions.
God Bless St John the Baptist ❤ God Bless the Holy Family ❤
Amen
Beautiful!
I've forgotten what real music sounds like
Thank you for bringing this original piece ! 2021 ! 🗣🌎
So beautiful it Gives me chills
This is absolutely beautiful, I could listen to this all the time. Not sure what the words are but I find it beautiful ♥️🦋♥️
Thanks and praise to God from whom all blessings flow...who was and is and is to come Amen 🙏✝️♥️
The "Doxology"
Probably thee most Calming Voice I have ever heard. I listen to this when things get tough and it fills me with a calming sense of purity.
Ce chanta transporté mon âme et à apaisé ma pensée et tout aligné en moi. Merci bcp pour cette diffusion ❤️
Just heard about this in the book, The Next Octave by Stephanie Petersen. The seven notes of the music scale correspond to our seven chakras in our spinal "cord"
Beautiful brought tears to my eyes! 🙏❤️
😢😢😢
Very beautiful. Very edifying. Glorifies God.
beautiful song, what a pure and radiant voice😉
Beautifully sung... amazing voice.
Healing. Saint John/Yanni would be proud.
I'm a Muslim, but this song is nice to hear, I like it
I’m a Christian and you are welcome to enjoy this with us brother/sister. Much love ❤️
Jesus is for EVERYONE...God heals everyone whether you are a Muslim, Buddhist, or belong to other religions.. HE died for everyone to show an example of humility, love and sacrifice for our souls... these songs have a healing frequency that's why people are drawn to it, but 'bad forces' within the Catholic church are trying to eliminate the old, Roman Catholic traditions and the Latin mass... unfortunately...but it will always flourish, because it is CLEAN AND TRUE. amen.
Our rulers Divide And Conquer US ! God wants a Relationship with us and wants us to have a Relationship…
Muslims are cousins of Christians and Jewish people the Agenda keeps us separated
Because we have the same GOD..✨
David Icke brought me here too!
PREPARING THE WORLD FOR HE TO COME!!!!!!!!🙏

so very beautiful, thank you
Hymns such as this beautiful one could be heard every Sunday at St. Catherine's of Genoa. Circa 1960s then in the 1970s these hymns were replaced by groups with guitars singing popular songs. What happened?
Modernity disacrated music , all went down , not only music
Some suggest that it was suppressed
There are many ways to worship God!
A fall from grace and a blatant disregard for that which is sacred.
In other words, the worship of the god of this world..
I guess the one who teaches and plays the musical pieces have gone away and no one replaced him or the new Parish Priest did not allow it to continue to keep pace with modern times. We need revival.
Quite beautiful.BIG LOVE TO ALL XXX

Noooooooooooo
wow
is this A 417 Hz?
How many different types of frequency is used within this song by the way
At what frequency is this song playing at? Is it 432htz, or 400htz?
The chant is sung at our preferred pitch standard of A=392, which we use in all of our music. But if you read the chant notation, you will notice the voice transposes the chant up to a comfortable pitch that optimizes delivery of the text. This always was and still is standard practice for any schola involved in singing Gregorian chant for the Latin Mass.
For the convenience of those reading the chant and singing along, the voice begins on the pitch of Bb at the standard reference pitch of A=440. This is a minor third higher than the initial notated pitch (G) at modern reference pitch A=440.
David Icke brought me here also!

Jesus is lord
harmonic balance
How could John the Baptist sang in "Latin" ...??? I just wondering. Who recorded the song in his time ???
Good question! There's a bit more information on our Bandcamp page for this track: mignarda.bandcamp.com/track/ut-queant-laxis , but briefly, this is a medieval hymn TO John the Baptist, not OF or BY him. The text is traditionally attributed to Paulus Diaconus, the eighth-century Lombard historian, and the anonymous melody has been found in a tenth century French manuscript (H425, held in the Bibliothèque de l'école de Médecine, Montpellier), applied to the words of Horace's Ode to Phyllis, "Est mihi nonum superantis annum". It's important to remember that the Christian religion is more than 2000 years old. The New Testament was first transmitted in Greek, but Latin became the language common to the Roman Empire, and thus became the language of the Christian Church. The Hymn to St. John the Baptist is widely known today because it was documented by Guido D'Arezzo (c. 991 - 1033) and used to teach the musical scale.
Yes, I got it, but after I wrote the comment, SORRY, my mistake.
Where do I find the lyrics to this?
Just click "show more" in the notes below the video to find Latin text with Donna's English translation. Thanks!
Does anyone know the name of the art at 1:08?
Leonardo DaVinci

What hz is this?
It’s originally 417
Shame they couldn't record at original setting of 432 hz.
It was originally 417 & 528
How do I learn to sing this. If this is true it is the one song I wish to learn
I'd use the first verse - the chant notation is in the video - to learn the melody. This is the notation from the Liber Usualis I'm singing from. Once you've got the tune, you can sing the rest of the verses, which are in the notes above. Just click "show more" to see them. -Donna
