Gregorio Allegri: Miserere

[@ignacionegronoyarzo1943]

I am not a religious person, but the first time I was in Firenze (like 13 years ago) I entered into the St John Baptisterio, I put my headphones and I listened this piece while I contemplated the murals. It was one of the most beautiful and etheral moments in my life.

[@michaelthwaite3282]

This is NOT what Allegri wrote. Imagine that Da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa and subsequently other artists added bits and took bits away. This is what happened with the original Miserere. Yes, it's beautiful sounding piece, but it is "as arranged by" Alfieri and Mendelssohn, the latter hearing an ornamentation during a performance that he subsequently transcribed in the wrong (higher) key, hence the high "C" that makes everyone swoon.

[@pavlickrobert]

The Institutional Church made a BIG MISTAKE when they let all of these great liturgical works fall by the wayside and substitute trite and foolish sounding Folk Tunes and guitar Masses. These marvelous works touched the soul in ways that today's church music just cannot come close to. This kind of music transports you to a place beyond words and tunes.

[@CaptainOfTheLostWaves]

Robert Pavlick perfectly summarised sir. There is a core of something so utterly beautiful and intangible here that it might be as close as we get on this earthly plane to ‘ hearing and feeling the mystery of God’ x

[@jackmorrison7379]

True but consider two things. One: those high notes at the Sistine Chapel where this was once exclusively sung came from the castrati, not boys or women (who were excluded then as now at the Vatican). Two: how many singers and musicians at guitar or mariachi Masses are capable of singing in Latin and doing this type of music well.

[@catherineleclair3450]

I agree with you. Church music ought to be of the greatest quality. Fortunately I have found out there are indeed a few churches and chapels across the world where choirs do strive for beauty during Mass, out of deep respect for the liturgy. I pray you may find such a place not too far from where you live. God bless you.

[@NullG7]

DonDraperism Actually, he isn't necessarily calling out your religious beliefs. He was probably just pointing out that you said that you repented to God for all the things you have done, which implies you have wronged someone in your life. And before you say anything, if you believe you have done things that need to be repented in your life then you have wronged at least one person in your life, namely yourself. It's said that true forgiveness is born within. Anyone can pray for forgiveness from an anonymous power, but only the strongest people can bear to forgive themselves for their own misdeeds.

[@AsSereneMonstersRest]

DonDraperism He doesn't seem angry in his post. He is simply asking you why you don't make amends for your sins rather than just ask for forgiveness. If those sins include having wronged people then making amends to them is more genuine form of repentance than asking someone you have not wronged for a morally clean slate that does nothing to repair damage you have caused.

[@ForgedInStone]

AsSereneMonstersRest Maybe he hasn't wronged anyone apart from God. it's something that we all do every day, and there are very few who realise it and ask for forgiveness. It's a very, very relevant comment on a video of a song called, "Have mercy on me, Lord". Miserere mei, Deus.

You are just when you pass sentence on me, blameless when you give judgment Ecce enim in iniquitatibus conceptus sum : et in peccatis concepit me mater mea Ecce enim veritatem dilexisti : incerta et occula sapientiae tuae manifestasti mihi You know I was born guilty, a sinner from the moment of conception Yet, since you love sincerity of heart, teach me the secrets of wisdom Asperges me hyssopo, et mundabor : lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor Auditui meo dabis gaudium et laetitiam, et exsultabunt ossa humiliata Purify me with hyssop until I am clean; wash me until I am whiter than snow Instill some joy and gladness into me, let the bones you have crushed rejoice again Averte faciem tuam a peccatis meis : et omnes iniquitates meas dele Hide your face from my sins, wipe out all my guilt Cor mundum crea in me, Deus : et spiritum rectum innova in visceribus meis Ne projicias me a facie tua : et spiritum sanctum tuum ne auferas a me Redde mihi laetitiam salutaris tui : et spiritu principali confirma me God, create a clean heart in me, put into me a new and constant spirit Do not banish me from your presence, do not deprive me of your holy spirit Be my saviour again, renew my joy, keep my spirit steady and willing; Docebo iniquos vias tuas : et impii ad te convertentur Libera me de sanguinibus, Deus, Deus salutis meae : et exsultabit lingua mea justitiam tuam Domine, labia mea aperies : et os meum annuntiabit laudem tuam And I shall teach transgressors the way to you, and to you the sinners will return Save me from death, God my saviour, and my tongue will acclaim your righteousness; Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will speak out your praise

[@JohnSpawn1]

Quoniam si voluisses sacrificium, dedissem utique : holocaustis non dedectaberis Sacrificium Deo spiritus contribulatus : cor contritum et humiliatum, Deus, non despicies Sacrifice gives you no pleasure, were I to offer holocaust, you would not have it My sacrifice is this broken spirit, you will not scorn this crushed and broken heart Benigne fac, Domine, in bona voluntate tua Sion : ut ædificentur muri Jerusalem Tunc acceptabis sacrificium justitiae, oblationes et holocausta: tunc imponent super altare tuum vitulos Show your favour graciously to Zion, rebuild the walls of Jerusalem Then there will be proper sacrifice to please you - holocaust and whole oblation - and young bulls to be offered on your altar

The first time I heard this, I was 7 or 8 years old , when the artist behind the exhibition "Threshold to the Kingdom" (which uses this music) gave a workshop at my school. The haunting melody at 0:28 deeply affected my little 7/8-year-old self and it stayed with me for months. I had chills every time it came into my head and I remembered how beautiful it sounded with the power of a full choir behind it. But over the years it faded from my memory, and I never found out the name of the composer or the piece. Then, a couple of days ago, I was listening to a compilation of classical music while studying, when the chilling melody from my childhood suddenly sounded, and I stopped everything I was doing. It brought tears to my eyes as I heard it for the first time in 12 years. I can't express how happy I am to have found this incredible piece, along with the reminder that music is profoundly powerful.

[@pierreyeremian4070]

mais le problème c'est que le Christianisme - comme idéologie - a tué la Foi chrétienne ! Jésus Christ a laissé un ordre de marche à ses apôtres : "allez par tout le monde , faites des DISCIPLES " pas des chrétiens ( adeptes du Christianisme) pas des "cathédrales ou des bâtiments appellés " eglises" . L'église , l'éclessia c'est tous ceux qui se rassemblent au nom du Seigneur et qui le célèbre par des hymnes , des chants , des prières ( Paul aux Corinthiens) . Ce ci étant , je suis sensible aux magnifiques édifices religieux , aux concerts , chants sacrés comme celui ci . Mais être disciple ( à son école)voila l'appel adressé à toute personne se réclamant de Christ . Soyez tous bénis !

jean bourdil J'espère que tu me comprends amico, la Religione fa parte della cultura, sia specifica del luogo che globale. Da un punto di osservazione laico, diversi maestri di pensiero (maître à penser) , sostengono che E' la preghiera che da origine alla religione, non viceversa . L'essere umano possiede un innato e indistruttibile ""istinto di preghiera", e le religioni sono nate proprio per questo, per dare una risposta completa a questa necessità. Non è un fatto dissacrante, per nulla. Per spiegarmi meglio, tutti noi, a prescindere dal credo religioso, speriamo in qualcosa , che vada bene un esame, un incontro, ecc. Queste speranze sono solo preghiere,anche se non le chiamiamo così. Comunque, ritornando in tema, benchè Ateo ed ascoltando il brano di Allegri, vado veramente in Paradiso....

The Lyrics of this repentance song masterpiece in English is Psalm 51 “Have mercy upon me, O God: after Thy great goodness. According to the multitude of Thy mercies, do away mine offences. Wash me thoroughly from my wickedness: and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my faults: and my sin is ever before me. Against Thee only have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that Thou mightest be justified in Thy saying, and clear when Thou art judged. Behold, I was shapen in wickedness: and in sin hath my mother conceived me. But lo, Thou requirest truth in the inward parts: and shalt make me to understand wisdom secretly. Thou shalt purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: Thou shalt wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Thou shalt make me hear of joy and gladness: that the bones which Thou hast broken may rejoice. Turn Thy face from my sins: and put out all my misdeeds. Make me a clean heart, O God: and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from Thy presence: and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me. O give me the comfort of Thy help again: and stablish me with Thy free Spirit. Then shall I teach Thy ways unto the wicked: and sinners shall be converted unto Thee. Deliver me from blood-guiltiness, O God, Thou that art the God of my health: and my tongue shall sing of Thy righteousness. Thou shalt open my lips, O Lord: and my mouth shall shew [show] Thy praise. For Thou desirest no sacrifice, else would I give it Thee: but Thou delightest not in burnt-offerings. The sacrifice of God is a troubled spirit: a broken and contrite heart, O God, shalt Thou not despise. O be favourable and gracious unto Sion: build Thou the walls of Jerusalem. Then shalt Thou be pleased with the sacrifice of righteousness, with the burnt-offerings and oblations: then shall they offer young bullocks upon Thine altar.”

Y una mañana puse este disco que me gustaba. Luego me metì bajo la mesa del comedor a escucharlo. Mi padre me viò y se extraño de mi escondrijo. Me preguntò que hacìa bajo la mesa. No supe que responder pues la mùsica me emocionaba tanto que me provocaba llanto. Mi padre me tomò en sus brazos e insistiò en saber que me pasaba. - "Es que la mùsica me hace llorar"...dije yo, como pude. Mi madre habìa venido desde la cocina. Apaguemos esto dijo mi papà....hace llorar a la niña...No pude explicarles que era la hermosura de la mùsica la que me provocaba làgrimas, que no tenìa pena alguna, que solo querìa quedarme tranquila, bajo la mesa y escuchar. Mi mamà me sirvió mi té con leche y tratò de distraerme. Yo no querìa ni té ni leche, ni pan con mermelada, solo quería escuchar esa música.
