Medieval music : pilgrim song - Stella splendens

[@borjacarreterorobles791]

Montserrat, Barcelona and Catalonia beautifull places! Vic, Ripoll, Girona, Lleida Tarragona, Perpinyá... beautifull places too! If you are a medieval fan, the monastery of Poblet is amaizing. A cistercian jewel where a lot of Aragon kings and queens are buried ; )

[@themysteriousdomainmoviepalace]

I always wanted to take that pilgrimage to Santiago de Compestella but I never did.

[@automusica5761]

Translation: A bright star miraculously shining on the mountain like sunshine. Hark the mass assembling, all people rejoicing, the rich and the poor, the greatest and the pettiest, are gathering as well as we are self-witnessing, let’s all herald once more this: Hail Mary

[@pablomelgarmoncada1607]

Te quiero, Arany!!! Eres un virtuoso del folclore !!!!!

[@ljc5371]

Bravo!!

[@william88805]

This song gives me gooseskin. Its very powerfull. I have seen it on youtube about 2 years ago but it never bores me to play it again. Tnx for uploading Aranya !

[@bencaithamer2477]

Blackmore's night "locked within the crystal ball" is an upbeat, english, "new", song that uses this tune, if anyone is interested

[@aumoaum]

Beware, though: its like a hard kick in the balls after listening to this one.

[@automusica5761]

Like 60% of their music.

Blackmore's Night song is, in fact, a version of this old medieval song, but with different lyrics.

[@dohertykaki]

Music that makes me meditate.Great!!

[@timh.7169]

[@isabeauladyhawke]

bellissima versione....

[@rozeboosje]

Beautiful

[@topandeneil]

Magnificent! You deserve all success!

[@AndrewHennessey]

its really wonderful to have that link to the ancient mystery and Christian pilgrimmage

[@frankferguson6996]

Truth undeniable.

[@AndrewHennessey]

very often Stella Splendens is reduced to a song about Astarte/Demeter etc

[@lsthero5863]

The red book is in a museum in Barcelona

[@ConstansEuforia]

Painfully beautiful! I will spread the joy! :-)

[@xiomilolo]

Blackmore's Night made a song about this(or similar) called "Locked Within the Crystal Ball" also a very beautiful :)

[@pedroruizlasida4988]

Una vez más una obra maestra

[@hoaonemail9842]

The medieval is great, light not dark.

[@vboast8921]

uplifting and beautiful! Salve Regina!

[@lamashaadams8242]

+Veronica Boast How about the group that does this beautiful version? I wish to download or find CD

[@vboast8921]

I wish I knew! Only found it on KZbin. Good luck with your search. V

[@pedroruizlasida4988]

Gracias Arany Zoltan

[@thenovocaine1096]

Love this one! I'm sure we'll checj this out sith our medieval band Clavus Patibuli.

[@gladius881]

thank you arany zoltan

[@Omskanielar]

Wonderful! =)

[@effigytormented]

Interestingly citing Our Magnificent Bastard Tongue, English is a Germanic Language with a Celtic Sentence structure, which is why we are one of the only languages in the world with a progressive sentence structure.

[@Klibanophoros]

Gyönyörű

[@korriganelf8687]

belle musique !

[@comradetortoise]

You just made the awesome list. There is a reason I am learning the language.

[@bencaithamer2477]

Blackmore's night, locked within the crystal ball!

[@glishev]

Wonderful, I love this version.

[@SergMesch]

Great :.)

[@LaurentziuRo]

Thanks for posting !

[@esirenbotdon]

Blackmore's night (Faux-medieval tat) completely murdered this outstanding song in my opinion. This version is amazing!! Well done Arany!

[@whitestorm7176]

Très belle mélodie, ça donne envie d'apprendre le latin, sans être pour autant chrétien ^^

[@oxymore2]

Linguists separate languages and dialects with two basic tools.: 1- a dialect is a language with an army and some tanks 2- peoples who speak close dialects are supposed to undestand themselves. So, castillan and french are languages, catalan and occitan whose were dialects from "langue d'oc" were not But catalan starts now to be one.

[@lsthero5863]

In fact catalan and occitan were different languages. The two of them are romance languages recognised and separated from the start.

[@comradetortoise]

I would disagree here. While few people speak Latin directly, Latin is the basis for the organization of grammar in English and many other languages. Most of the English vocabulary derives from either Latin, or Germanic languages (old Norse or old German). Latin helps massively in the learning of all romance languages, and the complexity of the grammar assists with the germanic ones. In addition, it improves grammar and vocabulary use in english and gives access to roman literature.

[@ScapularSaves]

@nindojibwe : Affirmo. Vivat Latina!

[@Arthur030393]

Sequitur alia cantilena ad trepudium rotundum: Stella splendens in monte ut solis radium miraculis serrato exaudi populum. Concurrunt universi gaudentes populi divites et egeni grandes et parvuli ipsum ingrediuntur ut cernunt oculi et inde revertuntur gracijis repleti. Principes et magnates extirpe regia saeculi potestates obtenta venia peccaminum proclamant tundentes pectora poplite flexo clamant hic: Ave Maria. Prelati et barones comites incliti religiosi omnes atque presbyteri milites mercatores cives marinari burgenses piscatores praemiantur ibi. Rustici aratores nec non notarii advocati scultores cuncti ligni fabri sartores et sutores nec non lanifici artifices et omnes gratulantur ibi. Reginae comitissae illustres dominae potentes et ancillae juvenes parvulae virgines et antiquae pariter viduae conscendunt et hunc montem et religiosae. Coetus hic aggregantur hic ut exhibeant vota regratiantur ut ipsa et reddant aulam istam ditantes hoc cuncti videant jocalibus ornantes soluti redeant. Cuncti ergo precantes sexus utriusque mentes nostras mundantes oremus devote virginem gloriosam matrem clementiae in coelis gratiosam sentiamus vere.

[@mennyboy1528]

Zoltan are you Arany?

[@yevrahim100]

Zoltan thank you for this beautiful work.

[@LightCrasher]

Never thought I will say that about medival music at your channel, but at least one of these people singing this has no hearing what so ever.

[@michellefitz9536]

Does anyone have the lyrics to this song?? I am in a 13th century re-enactment group that portrays Templar Knights and civilians on pilgrimage so to be able to learn to sing a "Pilgrim Song" for events would be spectacular!!

[@Eronoc13]

Sure thing! Chorus: Stella splendens in monte ut solis radium Miraculis serrato, exaudi populum. Concurrunt unvisersi gaudentes populi, Divites et egeni, grandes et parvuli, Ipsum ingregiuntur, ut cernunt oculi, Et inde revertuntur gracijs repleti. [Chorus] Principes et magnates ex stirpe regia, Saeculi potestates optenta venia Peccaminum proclamant tundentes pectora. Poplite flexo clamant hic : Ave Maria. [Chorus] Prelati et barones comites incliti Religiosi omnes atque presbyteri Milites mercatores cives marinari Burgenses piscatores praemiantur ibi. [Chorus] Rustici aratores nec non notarii Advocati scultores cuncti ligni Fabri sartores et sutores nec non lanifici Artifices et omnes gratulantur ibi. [Chorus] Reginae comitissae illustres dominae Potentes et ancillae juvenes parvulae Virgines et antiquae pariter viduae Conscendunt et hunc montem et religiosae. [Chorus] Coetus hic aggregantur hic ut exhibeant Vota regratiantur ut ipsa et reddant Aulam istam ditantes hoc cuncti videant Jocalibus ornantes soluti redeant. [Chorus] Cuncti ergo precantes sexus utriusque Mentes nostras mundantes oremus devote Virginem gloriosam matrem clementiae In coelis gratiosam sentiamus vere. If you want to be as correct as possible, be sure to remember that in Ecclesiastical Latin... "gn" (as in "magna") is pronounced as in "lasagne". (Magna = manya) "C", when before a vowel such as "i" is pronounced as "ch", (Principes = princhipes). If before a vowel like "u" or "a" it is pronounced like a "k". A "g" is pronounced as a "j"(egeni = ejeni), while a "j" is pronounced the same as an "i" (Jocundum = Yocundum). Try to keep vowels long. Monte = "montay" and oculi = "oc-yoo-lee". "A"s should always be pronounced "ah", almost like an "o", as in "Far". "Oe" is pronounced the same as an "ae". Mr. Zoltán mostly gets the pronunciation correct besides the "ng" rule, so if you listen to him you should be fine.

[@karl7108]

Aermachrael Respect and thanks for such elaborate explanation.

Aermachrael Respect and thanks for such elaborate explanation.

[@lamashaadams8242]

Hi Karl, Do you know what group sings this version?

[@karl7108]

Lamasha Adams I think it is performer himself, Arany Zoltan.

[@jannie1495]

i think this sounds best when it is sung by children... that's the way i first heard it. their sweeter voices really make it sound beautiful!!

[@archibaldhadock5811]

No lo creo, esta música está hecha para ser cantada a varias voces normalmente masculinas, aunque como toda la música medieval se puede tocar con los instrumentos que se desee y variando las voces pero manteniento la estructura monofonica (A una voz) De todas maneras hay muchas versiones de esta canción, ya que es muy famosa, pero las que más me gustan a mí son las que contienen voces femeninas.

[@KatheHanna]

How on earth could you mistake this for ancient Chinese or Japanese? Not only is the musical structure completely different that that of eastern music, the language is obviously Latin! And why would anyone show images iconic of Christianity while singing in Chinese? This is a wonderful performance of this fine old song. Makes me proud to be Christian. What is the string instrument that comes in around 2:44?

[@krystofcisar469]

great version as always mr. arany Lyrics in Latin: Stella splendens in monte ut solis radium miraculis serrato exaudi populum. Concurrunt universi gaudentes populi divites et egeni grandes et parvuli ipsum ingrediuntur ut cernunt oculi et inde revertuntur gracijis repleti. Principes et magnates extirpe regia saeculi potestates obtenta venia peccaminum proclamant tundentes pectora poplite flexo clamant hic: Ave Maria. Prelati et barones comites incliti religiosi omnes atque presbyteri milites mercatores cives marinari burgenses piscatores praemiantur ibi. Rustici aratores nec non notarii advocati scultores cuncti ligni fabri sartores et sutores nec non lanifici artifices et omnes gratulantur ibi. Translation in English: Resplendent star on the mountain like a sunbeam Miracles from Montserrat, hear the people. From all around they rally, rejoicing, Rich and poor, young and old, They assemble here to see with their own eyes, And return from it filled with grace. (Refrain) Rulers and magnates of royal stripew, The world's mighty, having obtained indulgence For their sin, they cry out and beating their breast They kneel and cry thus: Ave Maria. Prelates and barons, famous counts, All kinds of monks and yet priests, Soldiers, merchants, citizens, sailors, Burgers and fishermen are recompensed here. Peasants, ploughmen and also scribes, Advocates, stone-masons and all carpenters, Tailors and shoemakers, and weavers as well, All kinds of craftsmen rejoice here.

[@dominiklewitzki5458]

Which band is this? could somebody tell please?

[@lamashaadams8242]

how can you find this version of stella splendens? I really like this. Is the group Cancion de perdgrinos?

[@yura2424]

Hi Lamasha! You can download any song from youtube. Just put the link to the youtube video in here www.youtube-mp3.org/

[@ohyeahtutorial]

No, it's only Arany Zoltan singing and playing the instruments by himself.

[@lorenapasquetti8627]

😮❤❤

[@maple1212]

@Jmonstra it's only "dead" because it cannot be changed any longer

[@esirenbotdon]

@ginab79 Sorry! I'm not anti faux-medieval tat per-se, and actually quite like some similar music! This version is just too Spinal Tap for *my* tastes... Sorry if you consider this 'spewing hatred' . I haven't got an Ego and I don't think in a box... (although I do quite like them for putting my shopping in sometimes...) Sorry Arany- this is a bit off the point... Yours is a great version (not to say other people haven't done quite nice versions as well) of a great song!!

[@charlesgoodman1808]

@nindojibwe FOR OVER 1000 YEARS? I THINK ALMOST 2000

[@Magister365]

This is the inspiration for Blackmore's Night's song "Locked Within the Crystal Ball".

[@lsthero5863]

That wasn’t an inspiration. That song is a ripoff

[@acerb4566]

the only places to make a pilgrimage in North America, is either the Black Hills in South Dakota, or the Cypress Hills in Alberta-Saskatchewan. these are holy places.

[@gallowladh]

Я скачал и разместил этот ролик на другом сайте, спасибо, очень понравилось! I downloaded and posted this video on another site, thank you very much! Ich heruntergeladen und veröffentlicht dieses Video auf einer anderen Seite, ich danke Ihnen sehr!

[@charlesgoodman1808]

@Jmonstra YES

[@brujo_millonario]

Creepy. But well sung and played.

[@lsthero5863]

It’s not creepy, it’s medieval

[@jogroe]

Stella splendens in monte ut solis radium miraculis serrato exaudi populum concurrunt universi gaudentes populi divites et egeni grandes et parvolis ipsum ingredientur ut cernunt occuli et inde reventuntur hic ave Maria Bright star A bright star miraculously shining on the mountain like sunshine. Hark the mass assembling, all people rejoicing, the rich and the poor, the greatest and the pettiest, are gathering as well as we are self-witnessing, let’s all herald once more this: Hail Mary

[@Amadeus8484]

@nindojibwe Appreciating Latin is important but arguably Mandarin is even superior as it not only does not change with the addition of new words (like our languages do) but also it is STILL used :)

[@Yamnistadt]

Stella splendens in monte Ut solis radium Miraculis serato Exaudi populum Stars miraculously shining upon the jagged mountain Hear the people.

[@НиколайТодоров-и9т]

Well, Arabs and Chinese did pretty well during these years, and some important tehcnological breakthroughs were made then, even in Europe. Though I agree, the fall of Rome did great damage.

[@lsthero5863]

Rome survived until 1453, when the turks conquered Constantinoble and destroyed the Estern Roman Empire

[@Celestiaetterra]

A real Christian dance music!

[@charlesgoodman1808]

@Jmonstra NO MAN, REALLY ONE SHOULD RECOGNIZE IT

[@MagisterIohannes]

I do not know why people show such ignorance towards the language which we could be practically proud of naming "mother language". People are right that this song is beautiful on its own, maybe with no understanding of its lyrics, but they are stray from the beauty of the language. Honestly, people don't think that Latin is beautiful; try to sing this in English, even if translated, you shall prefer the Latin version -- there's much more spirit to one which knows what this song means.

[@chipoodle]

TABS?

[@realityprogressive4400]

what the language of this song?

[@BardolodelMelo]

Latin

[@OstrogothRome]

Speldid star that took the Magi first past jealous Herod, then took these Magi down to Jesus at Bethlehem, star that might have destroyed mankind's hope in 0BC, had those wise men not disobeyed Herods order to return and report on where He lay, ; See again the sspeldid star blaze again in our heavens 2020, nuclear fire from the east, but now there are no magi, and bethlehem beds lie desolate,...

[@charlesgoodman1808]

@Jmonstra HAHA, NICE SARCARSM, BY THE WAY MY REPLY TO U WAS BECAUSE U SAID IT ISN'T INDICATIVE OF ANYTHING REGARDING THE "STATE OF EDUCATION" NOT BEING ABLE TO RECOGANIZE LATIN. AND YEAH, ONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO RECOGNIZE LATIN AT LEAST WRITTEN, WHEN LISTENED TO AT LEAST MOST OF THE TIMES, AND I DIDN'T WANT TO MAKE ANY ARGUMENT BACKIN THIS UP CUZ I'M OCCUPIED MAKING OTHER STUFF, AND I'M NOT IN THE MOOD FOR IT. GREETINGS

Medieval spanish song from llivre vermell of montserrat, barcelona

Although medieval times took human civilization 1000 years back technologically and culturally ,so we would be now an interplanetary species.But they made damn good music!!

If that's to slow for you: there is a modern and faster interpretation of this song: watch?v=KQSqaoj21pU

[@hydadruid]

What are you lacking that urges you to pass judgement on others and hurt their feelings? That also goes for all that have "liked" your comment. You may know the words, but definitely fall short on the spirituality that the song represents. The people who wrote this song had striven to do "God's will". That's why monks stay silent, they might speak their own will rather than Gods. I see much ignorance in your words, maybe try and stay silent next time.

[@pablomelgarmoncada1607]

DEUS VULT!

[@Raelspark]

Modern version -- "Locked Within The Crystal Ball" from Blackmore's Night.

[@MetalAmaya]

However, Latin is not a "mother language" to everyone. Truthfully it has spawned and influenced many languages, but, say, someone from China can find it hard to even recognize it, and I don't think they should have such obligation. This song really shouldn't be sung in any language other than Latin, but if you want to know the meaning, there are people who translate songs. I can recognize and even understand a bit of Latin, but not many other ancient languages. Should I be so terribly ashamed?

[@Amadeus8484]

4 people hate ALL music lol

[@NBarker1993]

Apparently, English uses more Latin words than all of the Romance languages combined (except Latin, of course)

[@lsthero5863]

I don’t think so. I’m catalan and I study latin. Most of the words of our language are latin words which termination evolved

[@gandalfmeier7886]

DEUS VULT !!! ⚫⚪🔴
