Ancient music, ancient instruments, ancient languages, and happy, hard working kids. Doesn't get much better than this.
Happy hardworking kids?
@@DaviSilva-oc7iv Yes. You don't think they are?
@@timmundorff2354 I mean, at that time there was lots of wars, plagues, little liberty (most of people were born poor and died poor), hunger, they didn't really enjoy their childhood because they started working in a young age, backbreaking work, etc.
@@DaviSilva-oc7iv Sorry, what? 🤔I'm talking about these young people singing in this concert not Medieval Spain.
@@timmundorff2354 sorry for being bothering, I should have realized that.
Long life Europe and its beauty
Yes long live Europa and its great beauty. We are in danger of forgetfulness and the long and painful struggle for our civilisation. We need a recovery of truth for there is no great art, culture or beauty without it...
Expulsion if the no id immigrants and that s all
@@derekpoole7922 Amen.
Bueno, Europa se hizo poderosa gracias a la colonización y saqueo a lo largo y ancho del globo terráqueo. Ahora las cosas comienzan a cambiar. No todo brilla por siempre. El declive es inevitable.
And now replaced by Aullah's followers
Walking the Camino de Santiago I once stopped by an old monastery in time for vespers. Listening to the monks sing is something that will be with me always. As pilgrim, walking a 1000 years old way, l felt I was back in the middle ages as I listen the songs. One of the many wonderful experiences of The Way of St. James.
I am from León...I am sure you remember its cathedral if you got to see it...I live in the USA
@@amparoalvarez9001 YES!!! and I looking forward to do the Camino again in September 2021!

The old monastery in time for vespres sing a catalonia songs.
Cantigas of Santa María are Castilian Songs written from the King Alfonso X el sabio (The wise) who was king of Castile and Leon.
in these times, is this lovely sacred music from Medieval Spain just the right music for so many people.
What a beautiful performance of music, music much needed for our time. Thank you Spain. Thank you France. Thank you the Christian musical tradition.
@paseante sin rumbo fijo I have never thought of Spain as being culturally underrated. It is indeed rich in culture and history. Granted, for many in Los Estados Unidos, it may not have the cultural clout, let's say, of the UK, but it is a force to be reckoned with.
@paseante sin rumbo fijo Espagne est un mot de lieu. Dedans cette presqu' ille, il y a de differents pays, des royome, de comtés , etc. La Catalonia est un principoté composée de plusieurs comtés, formés dedans les royome-imperial Carolinge. Elle a opteni le royome d' Aragon, a crée le royome de Valence. Les territoires etaient organisés de faison confederée. Chaqu' un avait les lois propes.

@@a1977cantalozella Tu te trompes. L'Espagne est une réalité culturelle riche et diversifiée. C'est bien plus qu'un nom de lieu. Tous les royaumes médiévaux entretenaient des relations et des échanges culturels, des flux de personnes, des mariages, des métissages... Ils n'étaient pas séparés par des barrières comme on le voudrait. Et ils finiraient par former ce que nous connaissons comme l'Espagne de l'ère moderne et comme une nation espagnole du 19ème siècle.
@@a1977cantalozella You're wrong. Spain is a rich and diverse cultural reality. It is much more than a place name. All medieval kingdoms maintained cultural relations and exchanges, flows of people, marriages, miscegenation ... They were not separated by barriers as you would like. And they would end up forming what we know as Spain from the Modern Age and as a Spanish Nation from the 19th century.
It’s real music like this makes me realize I’ve been fed garbage all my life

Blessed words...gratia!.....🙏💯%
And here's a prayer to Jesus that my spouse will see BEAUTIFUL music like this for what it is, and turn away from the GARBAGE rock'n'roll he's been attached to all his life. Jesus delivered us from garbage!! May he come to appreciate REAL music, in Jesus' Name!! Mrs. O.
We all know we get fed repetitive crap on radio. This is beautiful.
Hilarious comment. The big ole praise-the-market culture has fed us all a lot of garbage all our lives. Time to choose the Real.
By chance I found this link, how beautiful to listen to over the years the "Cantigas a Santa Maria" by Alfonso XX "the wise", the parallel fifths, the circular canon, and how little by little the polyphony is being put together until reaching the period of early renaissance.
How much medieval music contributed in the 20th century, both in rock music of the 70's, as in modern and contemporary academic composers, is even present in the "new age" music. This music will survive forever, and what relevance it has in our current times. Beautiful concert of ancient music.!BRAVO!
By God, there still is BEAUTY in the world!!! BRAVO!!!!! BRAVOOOOOO!!!
God bless these beautiful young people.
Quelle émotion. Voici l'Europe civile la plus avancée, des jeunes français chantent en galicien médiéval et en latin. Que dire, du jamais vu! Oui mes dames et messieurs, c'est ça l'Europe de civilisations avancées à laquelle nous devrions tous aspirer. Longue vie à notre culture de lumière!
Amen.

Magnifique; Merci pour cette présentation, tout ce travail, tous ces talents. merci pour ce partage.
I can feel pure spiritual energy coming forth. It's rejuvenating my soul and purifying my thoughts. Making me think about how the genuine Christian life was back in the monasteries in the mountains in Spain around 14th century. I hope humanity will return to this and wake up from all the materialism and marxism that is ruling our world these days.
Marxism is extremely rare in our world. Where did you get the idea it “rules”?
@@judeirwin2222 What makes people turn away from God? I believe it is the strong pursuit of material things and this is exactly what marxism is teaching people, that we should fulfiill our desires and create materialistic utopia on earth where we can almost bathe in all material comfort, thus we loose the desire to search God.
It’s not Marxism that rules, but it’s opposite - capitalism.
@@Soundofmusic777 Capitalism without selfishness is just a normal trade. The greedy mindset that people developed comes from marxism. Listen to this: You can have capitalism based on moral principles, it would actually work quite well BUT you can absolutely not have marxism/socialism/communism based on moral principles it would cease to be marxism/communism immediately.
@@marcus2488 Marxism without selfishness also creates normal trade, we always have markets, they are how we live ..... Marxism is based on moral principles, read Marx to find out, though be bored. In fact, both ideas are based on principles. BTW I'd like to see capitalism in practice based on those principles alone, likewise marxism, alas human beings intervene, such a nuisance. If you think capitalism in practice hasn't tempted people away from your God, suggest you haven't been to specsavers...
Listening to this music I am overcome with a feeling of calm and peace. How brutal and shallow the modern world is in comparison.
Agree, although there is violent killing in these modern times specially war, but I believe the majority of pain the world feels now is mentally which is slow painful break down thru one's life, but it's this emotion or frequency also that connects all of us together just like the dark ages only it was violent massacres of Innocents untill the villagers began to hold there ground. That's how I feel when I hear these beautiful tones like I feel connected to everyone like me, instantly calm and feel in powerd to go into a meaningful war against evil along with people I might not know but consider them my brothers and sisters to reclaim our humanity for future generations. Idk just how I feel. Lol
El mundo medieval español fue brutal y violento con sus luchas entre musulmanes, judíos y cristianos. No hay que idealizar a partir de una música fabulosa. Nunca hubo
mucha paz en este mundo.
😂 And the Medieval world wasn't brutal?
@@carmelo3599 Yes, you are absolutely right, idealizing that world would be a mistake
El legado más grande de Europa a la humanidad es la música clásica y sobre manera la música sacra.
Watching from Philippines I felt like travel back to medieval time , early christian song is so angelic , such a beauty .. Godbless
Indeed, hearing the "beginnings" of my mother tongue just hits different hahaha it must be something similar to you even if a little considering we are "cousings" lol
Godbless from Central América
On the year 722 : there wasn't Portugal, nor Cataluña, nor even Spain , just the Mountain Kingdom of Asturias , and it's the Virgin who appears to king Don Pelayo, and Says : Fight and Resist! , and Indeed resisted !!! , To the overwhelming Power Muslim Invasion, from there on Castilla and Portugal were recovered, during that time Cataluña was praying to Allah on their knees and ass up , until at last they were freed from slavery, 400 years later by the Christian Armies.
What á blow to their Pride! We should be _Forever_ grateful to Spain , never forget , because, otherwise, this music never would be possible .
Spain is such a beautiful country, culture, and people...Many blessings from America. †
The first part is about The Red Book of Montserrat (1399), written musical notations, adorned with elegant miniatures, at which finds the first choreographic notation, that was still very rudimentary, of what hom has news at the world. It includes a compilation of chants and dances of the pilgrims of varied provenances from langue d'Oc and catalan, translated to latin sometimes.
Spain is beautiful country, but The Red Book of Montserrat isn't spanish.
Las cantigas de Santa Maria, un segle abans, son escrites en galego. Spain es només castellano o español?...
I wish that the culture was kinder to animals. I really wish that they would permanently end bullfighting as well. The music and dance, though, are enchanting.
Pero ha sido destruiído por la mentira, en forma de leyenda negra
@@trenfutur As long as it is catalan, IT IS Spanish or French. Let's do Phylosophy. 17 regions in Spain, each different but united under Spain.

Best performance of Le Livre Vermeil I have ever seen! Beautiful voices and musicians. This is the third time I am listening to this beautiful perfomance! And not the last time...
I concur with the comments extolling this most gorgeous music. For believers it leads directly to the heart of God. For nonbelievers maybe it allows them/us to gain consolation for the woes of this sometimes heartless world and to contemplate: maybe I was wrong. Maybe, just maybe there is...
Concierto grandioso. Una delicia escuchar y observar a los intérpretes, la música y las canciones. Una delicia!
Oh Europe, we are putting right our wrongs but we should also remember the best of what we've been and teach it to our children. Blessings from Ireland.
So beautiful. As a church musician for many years, I've always enjoyed medieval music, but not like this. The music and and the musicians are wonderful. I cannot describe the pleasure I've got from listening to this music.
Apparently according to the person who compiled the music from El Llibre Vermell de Montserrat he did so so that the pilgrims who went to Montserrat had pious and proper music that they could dance to and sing for entertainment, that is why despite all of the "religiousness" of these songs they are still quite upbeat and happy sounding!
Prayers for Spain. May the healing power of music be with all its people on this Good Friday 2020
Esto es una reliquia que vivirá en la posteridad muchísimas gracias por subir este video, bellísimo, hermoso sin palabras, saludos de Lima Perú, un amante de la música europea con cultura
Las cantigas de Santa Maria fueron compuestas por Alfonso Decimo el Sabio, Rey de Castilla, escritas en el idioma Gallego, mas dulce al oido que el Castellano, y en aquella epoca, idioma romance mas culto de la peninsula Iberica. Ambos idiomas, absolutamente Españoles.

There’s always one annoying piece leftover.
I am not so sure..
Tres beaux. , Beautiful., Bellísimo. Spain is Great.
Bellissimo. 👏
Many of these songs were taught to us by the Nuns at Saint Ann School, Beaumont, TX, some 70 years ago. I still remember many of the words in English and Latin. The music is as spritual now as then. Most thankful I have found this on CZcams.
Hello from dun laoghaire

Mon Dieu, que c'est beau ! C'est un chant céleste.
I had the rare privilege of being in a chapel like this, sitting meditating on my life, and wondering about my future after a difficult ending to marriage... it was totally quite not a pin dropping would go unnoticed... when out of the air these beautiful voices began singing, without instruments... it took me a few minutes to realize I was not going crazy (which at the time was an option) and the sound was coming from a choir loft... the choir did a 1 hour rehearsal of the Christmas Lessons... as I said, all without instruments, and I the only audience... a weight was lifted off my shoulders and I felt rejuvenated, and able to go on living... suicide was also an option... some will say it was God's interceding in my life... as a non-believer, I just thank who provided the singers and the circumstances that conspired for us to be in the same time and place...
Thank you for sharing. Deeply moved...
Wonderful! Hope you are doing OK :)
Some kind of spiritual epiphany brought on by a series of wonderful coincidences,and all of them "man made". Great story,I have been in similar circumstances,but my love of music of all kinds got me through,good luck and live happy.

Oraciones a España de Católicos Indonesios. Magnifica musica! 🙏🇮🇩 🇪🇸⛪️✝️🎶
I'm often amazed at the ethereal sophistication of mediaeval and renaissance music, considering the rough (and sometimes brutal) simplicity of life at the time. This was a top-notch performance. The lady conducting seems a really nice person, and the choir respond accordingly with their best.
The middle age is a long period of 1000 years. Not all of it was a underdevelopped time. Think about the intelligence and extreme sophistication of gothic architecture (in both technic and artistic points of views), we had to wait the 19th century to see such innovation.
I was at my worst, but this beautiful music helped me get through difficult times. Thank you.
This magnificent piece of musical wonder was recorded on my birthday 😀. My ancestors are also from Spain and as a result my family is catholic. I will show them this video as I am sure they will greatly enjoy it.
It's amazing to me that music this old hasn't been lost. That we still have these treasures is such a great blessing. Thank you for making this available for us to hear.
Exactly! It's like time travel, truly wonderful. I love the music of ages past.
It was kept by the monks in Montserrat's abbey (Catalonia)
The scores were gathering dust in libraries. They were discovered by musicology in the 60s.
Absolutely wonderful. Spanish medieval music with the medieval instruments and human voices. Sacred music, sacred thoughts and actions within the composer, artist and listener. Deo gratias!
To be precise, this is not Spanish medieval but Catalan medieval music, from before Spain existed.

If this music were written 2 months ago it wouldn't diminish it's magnificence. The fact that it's 500 + years old is just an added bonus. Wonderful performance!!
My friend, the Red Book of Monserrat is a compilation made at the end of the XIV century. Some of its compositions are older since the style was no longer in use at that time (i.e. different lyrics for different voices). Then, the Cantigas de Santa Maria collection was issued by Alfonso X el Sabio (the Wise) in the second half of the XIII century, 750 years ago...
Parece mentira que haya personas que en lugar de elogiar el magnífico concierto dado por artistas de varias nacionalidades o la calidad de la música medieval española, reconocida por todo el mundo cultural, aprovechen para denigrar a España con infamias de todo tipo o hablar de brujas u otras muchas cosas que están totalmente fuera de lugar en este contexto puramente cultural.

Couldn't be better image for medieval spain: the kingdom of castilla with las cantigas by king alfonso x the wise and llibre vermell from montserrat (the red book) for the kingdom of aragón
I agree, but for the Castilla, as the songs are catalan occitan
It's interesting to know that the Cantigas are not written in Spanish although Alfonso was king of Castille. But at that time, in the kingdom of Castille people spoke Castilian, but also Galician-portuguese (not separated yet), Astur-leonese and there were also people speaking "mozárabe". So Castille didn't force people to speak SPANISH... Ironically, the treasure of Alfonso's musical production, the Cantigas, are in Galician-portuguese, not in the "evil" Spanish language. But, even so, we must be proud of considering them a magnificent SPANISH contribution to medieval music... and the same with the songs in the "Llivre Vermell", some in Latin, some in Catalan (and in Occitan?) from the kingdom of Aragon, also a Spanish kingdom. Both books are a rich Spanish contribution to European culture...
Es una de las maravillas de las que uno se alegra ver visto y oído antes de morir.
The term perfection can seldom be ascribed to art, let alone in its instantiated, unreviseable form in flesh and blood performance.
But this is.
Perfection.
Sublime, sobrecogedor, un llamado al alma, poético, me emociona tan bellas melodías y voces, sin pirotecnia musical , allí esta música de ancestros perdidos en la historia que amaban la vida tanto como a Dios. Gracias por este regalo maravilloso!!!!
Si así se escucha la música y cantos en la iglesia única y verdadera de Jesucristo adorando a DIOS,como será en el cielo que infinidad de angeles siempre están adorando a DIOS,es realmente bellísimo..saludos desde Irapuato,Guanajuato,México.
Quelle merveille ! Merci à tous, à chacun pour votre interprétation magistrale et tellement vivante, vibrante. Gratitude.
You can feel the presence of the Holy Spirit.
the feeling is of the human spirit
@@watch-Dominion-2018 Perhaps the Holy Spirit can and does work through the human spirit.
@@ludovikpravoslavnik8785 no
Ah ? @@watch-Dominion-2018 😚
Ojalá esta música no desaparezca y se publique más, por lo sublime y espiritual
ESTA MÚSICA PONE UN CONTRAPUNTO A LO QUE VIVIMOS EN LA ACTUALIDAD. ESTO ES MARAVILLOSO.
Concuerdo plenamente con usted.
Such harmony! Brings me tears!
Esto es de lo mas bonito que he escuchado en tiempos. Música y armonías sencillas, donde la percusión sigue a la melodía y no al revés como se hace ahora. Sublime.
Beautiful sound - musicians and singers. Love from England
At 44:25, I love the Cantiga de Santa Maria! ¡Me encanta! Gracias a todos que han hecho esto posible, a los performadores actuales, y a la gente del pasado. Este concierto me ha enriqecido la vida. I am about to finish reading the Kingsbridge series by Ken Follett. I wish I had a magic hourglass so I could witness and experience all the growth of music and humanity, much due to the contributions of the Church to the societies it helped maintain.
No se dice 'performadores' si no REALIZADORES, Músicos, Participantes, Presentadores, etc. Hay que leer más libros y dejarse de usar palabras fuera del rico Vocabulario Castellano.
Precisamente, tenemos un idioma con multitud de palabras. Excepcionalmente rico.
Si es que los españoles ¡ somos increíbles!!!....para todo...orgullosa de mi sangre, mezclada, enriquecida, ciudadana del mundo. Gracias por este regalo directo a mi espíritu.
Soy mexicana y no podría estar más orgullosa de las belleza que trajo España así como nuestra fe. Siento a España en México correr por mis venas.
Soy español y debo decir que me has hecho literalmente soltar una lagrima con tu comentario, muchisimas gracias.
Yo todavía oigo los gritos de tus ancestros siendo exterminados. Y duele. Duele tanto como tu esclavitud abyecta y adoración a tu genocida.
Y que hay de mis otros ancestros? Sacrificio al por mayor. Ni todo fue color de rosa ni tampoco totalmente negro.
@@miquelangel5883 Cierto. Los mexicas fueron unos caníbales genocidas y esclavistas. El imperio más depredador de la historia. Sus descendientes deberían pedir perdón al resto de mexicanos. Así usted y otros dejarían de oír el lamento de sus antepasados, exterminador por millones en grotescos rituales paganos.
Gracias a la Providencia, España acabó con tanta barbarie, y llevó el Cristianismo, el Derecho, la Filosofía y la Ciencia al Nuevo Mundo. ¡Bendita sea!
@@Emilio_J.J.L. Su comentario es magnífico, lleno de verdades aunque muchos guerreros sociales se sientan incómodos. Bendita España!
BRAVO!Какая музыка, какое исполнение! а посмотрите на лица детей -одухотворенные, милые.Счастье было услышать и увидеть! Спасибо всем кто вложил столько души
And modernity tries to make us forget and deny our roots, what a madness.
Angels!
Indeed it is. I’ll always stay grounded in the noble Ibero-Gothic/Celtibero heritage I was blessed with. My ancestors were born in the Cantabrian highlands of the desolate Atlantic fringe of Northern Spain - where Christian refugees united with the Astures (among the last of the Celtiberi tribes) under the leadership of Don Pelagius to resurrect the fallen Visigothic Army and make a final stand against the encroaching tyrannical Muslim horde. This became the heart of the la Reconquista. The time for another Reconquista in the West will no doubt soon be upon us. Keep the faith
Yep it's called communism.
modernity allows us to know these old treasures.
@@thebrocialist8300 you mean the faith that teaches.." love one another.."?

Que belleza de video, gran coro, jamas lo había escuchado, gran selección de canciones, excelentes solistas, los músicos muy virtuosos, me encantó el video de principio a fín, cada segundo, se nota que el salón era muy caliente, el coro se estaba cociendo , pero aún así lo disfrutaron, justo cuando escucho a los músicos veo al niño 56:18 que esta disfrutando el sonido y ritmo de las notas, le pongo 100,000 pulgares arriba a este coro. Gracias Arutha!!
Absolutamente hermoso en todo el esplendor de la palabra.
.....CON EL REY ALFONSO X EL SAVIO NUNCA SE EXPLORO TANTO EN EL ALMA HUMANA PARA LA GLORIA DE DIOS : EL CLEMENTE , EL GLORIOSO , EL MAGNANIMO....DESDE EL PRINCIPIO DE LA CREACION....! OH SEÑOR MIO .!
May God bless you all. Beautiful heavenly music
Simply MAGNIFICENT!
Jo soc de Montsserrat...i aquesta és la interpretació mes extraordinària que he sentit mai del Llibre Vermell de Montsserrat,.... moltíssimes gràcies !!!
¡Todo BELLEZA!
España es Grande
This music has a purity from having been written solely to devotion. Love those Landini cadences--especially in the piece which ends right before 44 minutes in.
Debería hacernos reflexionar como país que tengan que ser músicos franceses los que nos muestren la grandeza del patrimonio musical español con estas dos obras maestras de las coronas de Castilla (Las Cantigas) y Aragón (El Llibre Vermell). Un conciert tout à fait extraordinaire.
Desgraciadamente los mismos españoles se han y estan encargando de destruir su propio pais tan rico en tradición y cultura. Todavia estais a tiempo. Yo,un mexicano desde Indiana USA. Saludos
