- Anton Bruckner's Christus factus est.
This is in fact Bruckner's third setting of this text written in 1884. It was dedicated (Like another of his motets Locus Iste) to a Father Otto Loidol from a Benedictine Monastery in Austria.
Sung by Bristol Cathedral Choir. - Hudba
I am a Japanese Brucknerian
The wonderfulness of this music is off the charts , and far superior splendor, full of admiration and emotion, and comfortable to the ear and the soul
I sang this as a soprano in my choir, and I really appreciate the wide range required to sing it, and how singeable it is
I sang this too as soprano and it's challenging but totally worth it and beautiful :')
I'm a soprano now and it's one of my fav things to sing
I think this is one of the best bass lines ever written. Fantastic
Sang bass in college 30 years ago and I still sing it from memory in my car.
Gorgeous :) anyone else here because of PTX? I love how they transpose it down, it's absolutely heavenly
Me
+jazzmastermusic ME
jazzaiyana nah I have no clue who they are ❤️😂
It's not transposed down. It is sung at A=440. Trust me, I have perfect pitch.
omg me i was thinking that they create this but now i know where this came from, and i need to bring this to my teacher of music ;)
Amo a Bruckner. Con mi coro el Coro Polifónico Nacional de ARgentina haremos la misa numero 2 en mi menor con la maravillosa directora invitada Virginia Bono. Una obra sublime , e inspiradora, logra Bruckner con su genialidad hablar con la música. Una de las bendiciones de esta vida. Gracias música, gracias vida!!
Beautiful. I'd forgotten how dramatic this piece is. My days as a treble chorister are two decades behind me now.
Practicing this, immediately recognised the voices and noticed it is Bristol Cathedral Choir! Was a prob when I was in the choir when this was done! Was on the front cover even though I didn't sing on it. Left 3 years ago, feels like yesterday!
absolutely love this song. It was my favorite song i've ever sung in a choir.
I'm not a fan of Bruckner's symphonies but I love his choral works. I performed this piece with the U of Penn Chorus/
man, that piece (and this performance) is utterly divine. Really really hard to stop playing that ending over and over and over! Thanks for uploading :-)
love this piece so much. Did it last year, probably one of the more difficult pieces our HS choir has done.
Esplendido, siempre me gustó esta obra.
Este compositor tiene obras, muy buenas.El Ave Maria es bellísima!!!!
Muchas gracias, y buenas noches.🌿
Thank you Pentatonix. I adore this music.
Love Bruckner's Motets, especially this one.
Bravo for Bristol Cathedral Choir. So beautiful!
I sang this as a soprano when I was visiting worcester this august with my choir and I love this piece
This piece of music (christus factus est), nomatter what time or season, oozes meaning of the crucifixion. Thankyou to kings college.
Love that alto line so much. Bruckner wrote beautiful music for altos. I love this piece so much.
Very nicely sung. Well done Bristol Cathedral Choir. Thanks.
You need to hear Pentatonix sing this before their aha song. AMAZING!
Yes great Performance, live in cologne :) 19.04.
BiggySn1p3r OMG IKR
+BiggySn1p3r I love Pentatonix, but I think for classical music they use too much vibrato and don't give a round sound- still my favorite band!!
+BiggySn1p3r Can't wait till they have achieved all the pop stardom their little hearts desire, and then release a full classical album.
Tanya R you tell yourself that
Trying to pick out the alto part is always sooooo much fun haha. Finding good recordings to practice with is an adventure
You're not wrong there.
I was just thinking I would have liked to hear more alto :)
This piece sounds absolutely amazing transposed to C-minor.
Que obra tan ESPECTACULAR!!!!... por Dios... ¿Saben lo complicado para un coro que és estar cambiando a cada 3 o 4 compases de referente tonal?
Que belleza... nada que hacer!!! Y Bruckner... se lleva los laureles con esta composición!!!
beautiful!!!thank you...
This is my favorite song ever! I instantly fell in love! Sopranos
so i was playing this video game called devil may cry and im at the final boss which, in all seriousness, is satan. i usually play it with random music playing in the background from my computer. suddenly this piece by anton bruckner comes up out of nowhere. not realizing it at first i start winning against satan... so christus factus est just saved my butt from a demon. thank you Jesus for helping me beat the game :D
CrimsonPiano what game you playing now?
It works every time for me 😌
Very good and a very lovely piece to sing!
0:37 Hey, this is stolen from Bruckners 8th symphony!
Uh, wait...
THANK YOU!!...
00:53 All it takes is one bass to sing a Gb instead of an F and the whole section sounds off. (shakes head)
Alden Michels Agreed.
Good catch
Oh man. You are NOT wrong, haha!
What should be the reason to sing not a "F" ? It s a broken accord f-minor. Normally there should not be any problem....
@@Hecht103 - A "low bass" whou can't sing an F I guess. :D
Is there any performance with noticeable d2 at the end you've ever seen on YT ?
If angels in Heaven won't sing this every day, then I'm going to have a problem...
I don't understand the strange gaps before 'exultavit' etc. Otherwise this is a really nice performance. I love the boys voices in the descending phrases. Also the tuning of the altos.. It gets more and more beautiful towards the end.
WONDERFUL
amazing song! my favourite one to sing =)
This makes a stunning Palm Sunday anthem.
Well, very cool!
was this intended to be sung in a cathedral or basilica with significant echo? it sounds very different when done in a closed room - and not as good
Quod est ‘just super’!
I sang this piece with Bristol Cathedral Choir, for the first ordination of women priests live on tv thanks for uploading
sublime! Opera D'argento Gateshead- sillver group of which I am a member - are doing Locus Iste.
Eric Nicholson I'm also doing locus iste
Although I love low notes, in this kind of motet a simple chord like that sounds good.
was this the album with the d major mass?
@AliFyre Same here, but now I get to sing it as a bass. It is very fun.
It reminds me a lot of when hearing the best of Thomas Tallis.
Yes it's lovely, but it would be lovelier if the basses had sung what Bruckner wrote in bar 36. :-)
+Bob Knowles ? From G to A natural is a whole tone.
They do, they just lose a lot of volume and get drowned out (turn it up, you can hear a couple of them carrying on)
Yes- they weren't very strong on that A natural, but it was there.
they did m8 ;)
The meaning is quite moving
what a gem the durufle is! it really sticks in the memory. beautifully sung too.
too bad it's bruckner
He means Italian pronunciation of the Latin I think. Usually choirs do it with German Latin to be more true to the historical context when Bruckner composed these, and the choir(s) that would have initially sung them in late 19th-cent. Austria
Why there is break between "deus" and "exaltavit"?
I guess it was not bec. of page turn?
Allways a great song. Especially sung with a lot of dynamic. Great. For my taste it could be a bit faster. Only a bit.
danke
I'm no fan of Bruckner or his time. But this is a gorgeous piece.
Esos bajos!
Christus gestern , heute ... und in Ewigkeit AMEN
the Dvorak? If so, yes it is.
Dynamics?
I sang this in Bristol Cathedral on a live broadcast of the first ordination of women in the church of England...LOL
eu gostei do video *-*
Very good singin although the trebles are quite quiet...
Es gibt nichts Schoeneres und Edles in der Welt als die Mutterliebe.
not bad, only I have to agree with those saying that a soprano is singing like a solo soprano, not with the section, and plus, tenor voice's quality is not one of the best
Ni tan siquiera un amante del barroco y normalmente reacio a otros estilos como yo puede negar la belleza absoluta de esta pieza en la que no haría otra cosa que postrarme no a los pies de Dios, sino a los de A.Bruckner.
I didn't even hear the bass interval in the end
Anyone else here from PTX?
Jack Star yep
Jack Star Is it obvious? (See username)
Me
YES, I was looking for this literally forever, because I didn't recognise the song. Now I can die happy.
Dear friend:
How I envy you your knowledge of Latin and admire your understanding of grammar.
The original the Vulgate translates is thus:
[transliterated first in case the following Greek font doesn't make it through]
etapeinOsen heauton genomenos uphkoos mechri thanatou, thanatou de staurou 9 dia kai ho theos auton uperupsOse kai echarisato autO onoma to huper pan onoma.
It's beautifully sung, but one soprano is shouting in my ear so loudly at high notes I fear deafness. Pity.
Omg. You are aware that is an English cathedral choir, and that said "soprano" is about 11 years old? And my ears didn't spot is either. You clearly aren't a singer.
AA Abbott
omg omg, or you're already deaf and therefor can't hear what I'm hearing. It bothered me, live with it.
Blake C Boetto This piece was composed with trebles to sing it! This is how it is supposed to sound! If you don't like it too bad, take it up with Bruckner.
I'm not hearing any of the sopranos sticking out, but one of the altos certainly does at 4:00 on "quod est super nomen"
Hello, I was in the choir when this was recorded. The trebles are boys and girls, from year 5 - year 10. I know what you mean, I could tell you exactly who is doing the irritating loudness. It always irritated me, sounds much better in the cathedral mind
"Christ was made obedient" is the best. "Factus" is the perfect passive participle of the verb meaning "to do" or "to make" translated "having been made" and the addition of "est" makes it absurdly literally say, "He is in the state of having been made." In English we make it the perfect passive or, "He was made."
"Obediens" is the present participle of the verb meaning "to obey" which takes on the sense of an adjective. Hence "obedient." "Oboedientia" is the word for obedience.
qué pasada
😔🍏💙
favorite non english peice for all-state this year (=
is it not like the music of today?!
NO low D at the end. Or i'm deaf
I bet your voice is from low D to high C
@tee25horse mine too :D
basses at bar 7 :o
SMCS :D
Sung this on tour this year.
Boy trebles? I think so but not sure
Luca Garzolini boy and girls :)
Bravo je le chante à Bonifacio Corse mais des notes qui change. Le Ghrite de Rossini
i think the sopranos sound like children cuz they are children!
@tee25horse me to. it owns
Les Bonifaciens serait ravis
Les mêmes paroles faites de la pub sur radio 📻 Corse
I can perfectly hear a low G contra in Russian choirs... alas, this is not a Russian choir.
I know, so should be pronounced in Latin, not Italian. You know exactly what I mean. it Latin "c" is not "tch" for example.
sorry, but I don't agree with you in this point. You're right, they're singing it wrong (They do a lot of things wrong, like breaks at places without break, bad "e"-s, too loud sopranos who sound like children, weak Alt, Tenor and Bassbecause it's Latin and not Italian. But there is a third version.The Latin with the "ts" is called church Latin. And church Latin is MUCH better to sing than the normal one.
tritaeus They are trebles, not sopranos. Bristol cathedral choir, amazing choir. Google it. Start in year 5...
bez komentarza...
☕🍍🇭🇳✌️💜
I'd suggest "[Christus] factus [est pro nobis] obediens" may be better translated as
"Christ is made for us obedience" (though the bracketed words are added to the original Scripture from Philippins 2:8-9 in the Latin Vulgate (see live.e-sword.net/app/) "... [Christus] factus [est pro nobis] oboediens usque ad mortem mortem autem crucis 9 propter quod et Deus illum exaltavit et donavit illi nomen super omne nomen"
its too low for us to hear or too soft
Schitterende koorzang van de Laurenscantorij Rotterdam
Bravo, maestro Bruckner. The final cadence is just scummy!
Lovely song but if the altos from my choir would have saw this? Nope😂
Many of the pp in the script is nowhere to be heard (e.g. "usque" is supposed to be pianissimo but is mf at best. The following "mortem" by the should be forte but is at about the same mf level.) . Half of the consonants are missing (e.g,. the d in "quod") Also strange semi Italian pronunciation.
This choir doesn't contain true basses that can hit low D easily, /watch?v=Y10y7ycD1cU
CharlieCrusher the basses are mean anyway, no one likes them.
of course italian pronunciation.
Daran merkt man, dass die Sänger kein Latein gelernt haben, sondern nur stumm den Text "runter labern" - falsche Aussprache und teilweise falsche Betonung ... singen ist nicht alles - und falsche Tonart - hier wird ein halber Ton tiefer angestimmt, oder aber mit a = 400hz gearbeitet ... :( schade
Italian?!? No, it's Latin.
I can't stand Bruckner; however, his motets are a different story and this is probably my favorite!
Beka w chuj
Have the tenors got something big stuck in their throats? ugly ugly sound, and too much screaming overall...
