Excerpt from Kerensa Briggs' Media vita
During our January 2024 recording sessions for Delphian Records at Waltham Abbey, we captured this video. It's a section from Kerensa Briggs' haunting setting of Media vita. Kerensa wrote this piece for us in 2015 and we've performed it many times since then - we love the rich harmonies.
The translation of this section is:
Holy God,
Holy mighty,
Holy and merciful Savior,
deliver us not unto bitter death.
Thanks to Will Coates-Gibson/Foxbrush Films for capturing this phone footage!

Nesciens mater - Jean Mouton
zhlédnutí 4,8KPřed 4 lety
This is our version, recorded and filmed in isolation, of Jean Mouton's Nesciens mater. It's one of our favourite pieces from the Renaissance because it's so beautiful. But it's also a technical masterpiece, described as a quadruple canon at the fifth, at a distance of two measures. What that means is: the singers who start on the left of the screen are singing exactly the same music as those o...

Magnificent performance!!
Thanks so much!
Oooft! Only found out about this song in recent years. Absolutely magical performance! 🎵🎶🎵
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it.
Brilliant arrangement!!
Sublime. Thank you for this.
I wonder if Eric Whitacre got some inspiration from Howells. I've noticed some similarities between this and some of Eric's work.
Very interesting!
Magnificent. It's like a memory of Christmas, trapped in ice. Mystical, impeccably sung, perfectly arranged. Absolutely wonderful.
That's really kind, thank you!
Hermosamente celestial!!!
Gracias!
What happened to the soprano in the end she was flat . Is that on purpose
Jag vet inte vad de sjunger det värkar som de vara harmoniserar men på slutet va det lite falskt lol
❤❤
First listened to this in 2013 in Hereford sixth form and it’s still one of my favourite choral pieces. The harmonies are so beautiful they create such emotion. Love it! 😁
That's really great! We love it too.
Beautiful song. So happy for this elective class at my school. I thought I've heard all beautiful things already
It's great isn't it? Happy to hear you came across it in your class.
Amazing Final Cadence
unbelievable. speechless
Thanks so much Kevin! That means a lot.
Très belle interprétation, bien équilibrée, de ce chef-d'œuvre incomparable de Josquin.
Merci beaucoup!
This is music which enters your soul. It bridges the past, present and what is to come. The sublime harmonies are a foretaste of what awaits above. Magnificent.
Thanks Michael, one of our favourite pieces!
この曲を聴くと西陽が想像される。理由はよくわからない。
Fabulous.
Thank you!
One of the best interpretations of this arrangement by the swede Jan Sandström, if not the best? If the choirs pronounciation of this swedish text isn´t perfect has less importance, we all know the lyrics. Such a harmony and beautiful sound among these singers! Och God Jul! som vi säger på svenska.
Glorious!
Thank you!
The composer is - still alive. But very impressive though!
I have just listened to this at varying speeds on the computer and I have got to give them a grade of an A+! Well done, everyone!
Thank you!
Can do without the vibrato people!
Fantastic!
Thank you Kevin!
please help me, I really would like to know what exact technique the tenors use to hit their highest notes. is it falsetto or mix/head voice or belted chest voice, I am trying to learn it and cant seem to get it correct especially those lines with Ab and G
Hi! Tenor here. For me, a 1st Tenor, I use a mix of my head/chest voice. It may be different for others, but it's what I find easier for myself. Whatever is more comfortable on your voice works!
3:11-3:40
Thanks for this, most apt I hear it today with sublime singing it's most moving and gives much comfort.God bless
A pleasure, thank you for your kind comment!
Heavenly! Bravo!
Thank you!
Madre mía, este Bird es un prodigio. Qué cosa más bonita!
Love the conductor - fine work, understated. You contribute so much to this beautiful sound!
What a kind comment - thank you very much! (Patrick)
Gorgeous performance of an amazing piece! I've known this piece for a long time and always thought the dissonance and crazy shifts of harmony suited this text. I'm glad to see you have the updated, correct year of his birth. That's only a recent discovery.
Thanks so much! That's very kind of you. It's an extraordinary piece, isn't it? And 100% agree on the match with the words!
Bravi 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼♥️
Thank you!
Simply stunning, by far the most beautiful performance on CZcams and love the cantor C# on the “a” of bar 2 and throughout, sounds so much lovelier than dropping a 3rd to the C! Can’t find a score with the C# though, did you just amend the score, or is this version out there somewhere!?
Thanks ever so much. I think there's some debate about that note! According to - some - versions of the 5th Magnificat tone, that's the correct interval. But I think others disagree!
Where can I find the music to this
www.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php/Magnificat_Quinti_Toni_(Hieronymus_Praetorius)
I like this arrangement!
Wonderful performance. Can you tell me how you arranged the mics to "see" everyone around the circle? Thanks a lot.
Good question - I'm afraid that was the wizardry of Apple and Biscuit appleandbiscuit.com/
Are you all even remotely aware of how amazing and beautiful this is? Just….bravo.
So kind! Thank you!
Sublimely sensitive !
Thank you!
Still the best thing on the Internet by a mile.
Thank you, this comment means a lot!
Are you guys still around?
Very much so. Latest info is at siglodeoro.co.uk
🙏❤️
So beautiful! So many chills!
Thanks so much for your comment!
This performance stopped me in my tracks. Byrd's great lament always reduces me to tears but I thought this quite exceptional with just the right balance of tonal purity and emotional power. Evidence if er needed of of Byrd's technical mastery. Surely the greatest composer of his age,
Thanks very much for your comment. We agree about Byrd - unequaled!
How beautiful is that. Some argue that Palestrina is boring but they obviously haven't heard this. Exquisite.
Thanks for your comment! We agree - what a wonderful composer...
Yes that old canard about Palestrina is nonsense. It also wonderful to sing.
Is your cousin Irish? She sings like an Irish lass crossed with an angel. Delightful!
Ich hörte dieses Stück bei einem Weihnachtskonzert im Stift Melk vom Chor Ad Libitum. Es war als ob die Engel begonnen hätten zu singen - unglaublich! Ein Hineinhören in eine andere, schöne Welt...
Simply gorgeous.
Thank you!
Completely unreal performance! Wiping tears and applauding vigorously!
Thank you so much! Lovely to know - that means a lot.
Just amazing
Thank you! We love this piece.
Words all seem correct to the text given in the comment, except the very last word is "fold" as in v. 2, as i recall (plus it rhymes!). I wonder why Blunt says "they" in v3? Shouldn't it be "we"? Even to the point of E. A. Robinson's anguished question in "Calvary"?
