Palestrina, una pietra miliare nella musica dell`occidente. Una polifonia purissima e sublime

What a lovely performance. This piece is often done by choirs amateur and professional, but is not straightforward - there are some tricky twists and turns which often sound ragged. Ars Nova get it just right, the voices strong and clear without jostling for precedence - a real ensemble. Lovely intonation too. First rate.

Questo ensemble è composto da voci molto belle, strumento musicale di notevole qualità. Esecuzione eccelsa, bravi. Da incisione!!!

Absolutely wonderful!

I love music. So many different instruments has the mind and craftsmanship of man created! And yet none is as beautiful as the instrument created by our God: the human voice.

[@maltehenrikgohr]

I kinda disagree. I Love the voice but the voice cant be whole Orchestra by themself Like a Piano can. You have many more Options and can Play many voices at once :)

How can give somebody a thumb down for this marvelous music and interpretation? Some humans are so sick in their mind, no wonder world goes to the devil...

[@hanzo2657]

"It is not known at what period of his career Palestrina came under the influence of St. Philip Neri, but there is every reason to believe it was in early youth. As the saint's penitent and spiritual disciple, he gained that insight into the spirit of the liturgy, which enabled him to set it forth in polyphonic music as it had never before been done. It was his spiritual formation even more than his artistic maturity, which fitted him for the providential part he played in the reform of church music."_New Advent Catholic Encyclopedia

[@ArsNovaCopenhagen]

Interesting!

[@jamallabarge2665]

There has been some speculation that Palestrina "saved" polyphony. A world without polyphony sounds desolate and empty in some way or another. No JS Bach, no Vivaldi, no Handel or Zelenka. What followed them, changed or stunted. It's not a pretty picture.

[@OWOT-re5jf]

Such a glorious ensemble

The greatest composer who ever lived. Bar none.

[@nashj.3238]

I guess you've never heard of J.S. Bach

[@ravenband1947]

Single greatest piece. Heart rending when you know the text.

[@avdltd]

@@nashj.3238 of course I have. He was a great baroque instrumental composer, no question.

[@DeYiZhiMusilin]

I think this is an idle and futile game to engage in superlatives regarding who is The best and The greatest. Let’s not do that. We are not debating soccer teams here. There are many geniuses in musical history, and each one is great in his own way. Can we please agree on that?

[@avdltd]

@@DeYiZhiMusilin we certainly can.😊

Pls, continue with these pieces. Lately, I have seen your videos, but, they are different, I've not been able to uderstand that new style you are using so far. :'( Probably it is my ignorance hahaha, but I missed these pieces!!

[@ArsNovaCopenhagen]

Dear Dayanyushka. We are not strictly a renaissance group, but we can assure you that there will be more in a similar style to this video soon. Right now we are editing videos of our performance of Tomas Luis de Victorias Tenebrae Responseries.

[@dayanyushkadfajardonova2697]

Okay!! That sounds great. I'll wait ^_^ .I really like you, you are a very good Choir! Sadly, I am not able to watch you because I'm so far from you (In Colombia jajaja) But, I send you a hug!! :)

Palestrina....senza di lui ...cosa sarebbe stata la musica?.....e qui si conferma il Lusso armonico del canto degli Ars Nova Copenhagen...sopratutto nel fluire legato di quella che è un Perla Viva di Palestrina.Il canto polifonico è di una Dolcissima valenza che rende il canto Consolatorio...come la madre Oltre il dolore sapesse già per Sapienza che il figlio ...deposto come un malfattore ai suoi piedi...sarebbe Risorto...per dare un senso alla spada del suo dolore.In questo il grande Palestrina usa il lato psicologico delle parole dello Stabat Mater...prima che arrivasse Freud!!
