Old Roman chant - Domine quinque talenta tradidisti michi

[@ilkka4716]

This chant was one of the things that helped me overcome my opposition of the Catholic Church. God willing, I will be confirmed next Easter.

[@jesusacuna309]

You should look for an FSSP mass near you. There are catholics who keep to the old Latin tradition. Or you might find an eastern catholic mass around.

Jesus Acuna left a good reply, to add to that you could also look for a Western Rite Orthodox Mass near you.

@Niko Bellic Saying Orthodoxy is false, is the same as walking into the First Nicaean Council (325 A.D.) and telling them the same. Who then, friend, would be false? Would you stand before Constantine the Great and express this? Just something to think about. Personally, I like to believe that anyone who genuinely believes in the Trinity, and does their best to live by Christ's teachings, will be forgiven for the version of Christianity they follow. For me, it's always going to be the Church of the Holy Fathers, the Orthodoxy you referred to. For friends I have, it's Lutheranism, Catholicism, or what have you. They are respectful of my faith and I am of theirs, regardless of the theological variants that time, and man's natural state of theological inquiry has inspired.

[@yaninamiller5711]

Is this Catholic or Orthodox?

[@TheRighteousMight]

@Yanina Miller The chant is that of the Roman Catholic tradition in Latin, but the art in the video is of the late Western Roman Period (or early Byzantine Period). That’s a good question! The art found in Northeastern Italy and Ravenna is more representative of Byzantine style - whereas artistic mosaics during the existence of the Western Roman Empire were composed of different texture. Byzantines (Greek) worshipped and stylized in their own language and tradition - separate from the Roman/Italian (Latin) tradition.

[@yaninamiller5711]

@@TheRighteousMight yes they did,but its interesting to see where the cultures merge. I ,myself am a part of the Russian Orthodox church that of course embraces the Byzantine art,but iHave seen these cultures combined before

[@TheRighteousMight]

Yanina Miller that is most interesting in my perspective too. Merging cultures are what eventually made the Romans into an empire over hundreds of years! I respect you, though I only consider myself Christian. I don’t believe in sectarianism. I don’t believe Christ would want his church divided, but that’s another debate for another time.

@@AnprimGang this is the old thinking, still heavily influenced by believers which make up the majority of the english speaking world. However, things are changing. More and more biblical scholars and historians are starting to question this. I am firmly on their side. For now.. if it changes, then I will revise my stance, but for now.. I am not convinced. Too much relies on 'supposition'. However, even if he did exist.. it in no way gives credence to him being the son of god.. or being divine etc. During the same period, the roman caesars where said to ascend to heaven and become gods themselves.. and much of the 'mythology' around jesus is just copied from previous 'saviour gods and goddesses'... very very closely copied from previous sources, actually.

[@damoose663]

Callixtinus, I sing in a schola and our schola master told us that it is sung as michi mostly for practical reasons. The chants themselves has it written as "mihi". However, as one is singing this it is difficult to maintain the proper pitch and a good annunciation of the word so the is a consonant shift from 'h" to "k". I hope this helps

[@Callixtinus]

@BlackCappa: I know it's 'mihi' in classical latin, I wondered about the difference too, but the CD says 'michi', and if you listen closely you will also realize the chanters pronounce it 'michi'. I presume it has to do with the text having been written in medieval latin.

[@francoissiedel8628]

Il s'agit de la prononciation liturgique dite romaine : ils l'ont orthographié ainsi pour se conformer aux usages contemporains : en effet, mihi en latin médiéval commence à s'orthographier michi au tournant de l'an mil, accompagnant d'autres transformations phonétiques puis graphiques de l'époque telles que la compression de la diphtongue ae en e ou le remplacement du t par un c dans des mots tels que gratia. La partition doit avoir l'orthographe de l'époque, donc mihi.

Yeah after a few months of listening to them I realized they're Latin Orthodox in origin, as before the Schism we were one. That's why I originally put that it must've been chanted before the 700s, as that's when Gregorian chants started to split the West from the East

Was this music originally sung with a Byzantine-type ison, or was that added for this performance?

[@coemgenus6251]

It was added for the performance. There is no hard evidence, to my knowledge, of a prescribed ison in Western chant. However, oblique organum, a common (?) improvised technique at the time, is practically the same thing, so the ison here can at least be justified as valid Western chant custom, even if its performance in Rome may or may not be historically accurate. In the booklets of two Old Roman albums I own Marcel Peres' intro says he chose the ison for these recordings because of (1) the provocatively mysterious appelation of four of the seven voices of Rome's schola cantorum as "secondary voices" and (2) the mention of something called "basilical" organum (if I got that right - I am recalling from memory as I type).

The text begins with "Domine, quinque talenta tradidisti mihi ..." not "michi.":

[@coemgenus6251]

+Jay Preis Latin spelling evolved through time. "Mihi" was spelled as "michi" in 11th-century Rome, reflecting its pronunciation as "meekee". You can see it in the original manuscript.

+Coemgenus "Michi" is not the result of "evolution." It's an attempt to Italianize the pronunciation of "mihi."

[@coemgenus6251]

And where did Italian come from, again? Last I checked, that's been the Italianate pronunciation of the Latin word for a thousand years, and the officially endorsed modern Church Latin pronunciation.

[@jeffreyberland]

No, it is a general evolution in the Latin west. You find the same spelling in Frankish manuscripts from the early Middle Ages.

When Pilate saw that he could not prevail at all, but rather that a tumult was rising, he took water and washed his hands and said, “I am innocent of the blood of this Just person. You see to it.” And all the people answered and said, “His blood be upon us and on our children.” (Matthew 27:24-25) forever, jews. forever and ever. why do you task man with your execution? foolish mortals, babel remains ruined! god can't die, you heretics. you didn't make the sun. you have no place in reality. anywhere! how dare you defile existence!

"Domine quinque talenta tradidisti michi" -- translation?

[@CoeurJesus]

"Lord, you had given me five talents, and behold I have made five more." (Mt 25,20)

The correct text is "Domine, quinque talenta tradidisti mihi...". And the translation of that part of the text is "Lord, you entrusted me with five talents..." A "talent" was an ancient unit of mass of a precious metal. "Talent" here likely refers to a certain quantity of gold, as in "a talent of gold." Evidently, this person who was entrusted with 5 talents of gold invested it in some enterprise and doubled it.

[@roderickblyth2994]

+Jay Preis The reference is to Matthew 25:15.

[@coemgenus6251]

+Jay Preis "Michi" was a legitimate Italian spelling of "mihi" in the 11th-century.

[@coemgenus6251]

Latin was spoken in multiple dialects by regional accent during the Middle Ages, due to influence by the native languages that influenced its pronunciation. I heard a Corsican pronounce it like the English H, and I think the H might have been silent in parts of continental Europe, so in general you might be right.

He is the one that set up his creation to fail, and then punished them with this thing called ‘sin’ which is an arbitrary crime against a seemingly mythological all-powerful being, which said creation could NOT harm no matter what they did… and then the only ‘loophole’ he could come up with was blood atonement through human (ish) sacrifice?? And then to talk about more blood cult stuff… to be cannibals and eat the flesh and drink the blood of this sacrifice… to say one is ‘washed or covered in his blood’?? That’s heinous and disgusting…. That’s not even going into the history of this vile, disgusting, treacherous and heinous religion where so MANY vile and horrendous things were perpetuated in the name of this god….

[@TheBirdMamma]

Always felt strange about my Roman(Italian) heritage and the fact I am a deep, lifelong believer of Jesus. But they found him guilty of no crime, they had no quarrel of their own with him. The Sanhedrin made up lies that he was trying to bring up a revolution against the Empire and claiming himself a new king. They could not see the Kingdom of which he spoke was of the spirit and mind and soul and not of a physical kingdom, so they basically talked the Romans into arresting him for treason

[@paxcoder]

The decision was Pilate's, who was a Roman. The Creed says "he was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate". Put God first, and you will easily take a step back from nationalism and won't feel strange about anything or anyone. In Christ Jesus there is neither Jew nor Greek.

[@coemgenus6251]

+Jay Preis Byzantine chant employs a technique like oblique organum called "ison". That's the drone you hear. It became a codified standard in Byzantine music theory, and that association with the East is part of what makes people think it sounds Byzantine.

***** Regardless of the Roman origins of the Byzantine Empire, this is Western European music, not Byzantine music. The term "Roman chant" does not include or refer to anything Byzantine. The person who said, "This is Byzantine, not Roman," was addressing that fact.

[@jeffreyberland]

In this case Old Roman chant refers to the chant performed by the papal schola up to the central Middle Ages. The oldest surviving manuscript for this song "Domine quinque talenta" is a Roman manuscript dating from 1071.
