A beautiful piece by Perotin. It makes you wonder how many other masterpieces of this period remain undiscovered.
I agree, yet n actual fact there is such abundance archived medieval music documents that I doubt most of it has ever been performed.
i stumbled upon this majestic piece that it invoke feelings of the past, harboring tragedy that weighs heavily in my heart, i can only say don't be afraid to cry, it'll free your mind of sorrowful thoughts. thank you for this piece Perotin, your music echoed through eternity
What a poetic comment! Music and the other arts can send messages to us over the centuries. From the standpoint of music, one could say those messages are "encoded" in the notation, waiting to be discovered.
Why am i crying right now ? I dont now why ..
Perotin really knew his way around an EMU SP1200, the way he produced those vocals just can't be done with digital emulation. I remember seeing my boy Pero opening for Cannibal Ox around the turn of the millennium, he dropped Viderunt Omnes and the club went off, absolute carnage, habits in the air, tankards of mead flying overhead, dude wrecked the place. Really hope that plainchant acetate he cut with Skibadee gets a rerelease some time soon, prices are wild on Discogs.
underrated comment.
😃
Pretty good for an eight-hundred-year-old recording.
Hahahahaha!! GOOD ONE!!
Holds up quite well to modern standards
LOL
😂
😂😂😂
medieval music is so underrated
pro tip: you can watch movies at flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.
@Colton Rodrigo definitely, I've been watching on flixzone for years myself :D
It’s just primitive... But has a hidden beauty that only those who feel the history in their soul will understand the magic of the past
Agreed
@@FallenKing13 I think the key is to recognize that such magic is still there and all around us, invisible.
Part of my life's work will be hopefully to convince people of that, and to orient them towards producing a life that is enriched by such beauty, to see the beauty as imbued into the universe that we live in.
It's optimistic, perhaps, but this is the world we *truly* wish to live in. People escape to fantasy books, shows, movies and TV games because this is *exactly* what they're missing in their own lives.
It's time to bring the mystery back into daily life, one work of art, building, community, act of charity, etc. at a time.
I also have Rachel Joyce's Music shop book to thank for discovering this music. I would also recommend Hildergard von Bingen if you enjoyed this. So uplifting.
Music to cleanse the soul. Utterly beautiful ❤️
Bro this is gold
I have the original recording of this, it was etched into a huge stone, a bit like a millstone, to play it you had to scrape a flint over it attached to a wooden stick. It still sounds great today.
“The Music Shop” by Rachel Joyce brought me here. The main character described this song as stepping onto a birds back so I had to come listen.
I just read that sentence too!
i just had to check it out on my kindle - "every time you see a bird, you'll think of this"
Same here
Me too!
That's such a good image for this music
medieval! Perotin.. 70 years man.. 1160 to 1230 ? a bad ass !
I was fortunate enough to hear this masterpiece of Perotin's performed in a magnificent chapel within the Cloisters in NY by the Ensemble for Early Music, directed by Frederick Renz. This version - posted here - is one of the most unique interpretations I've ever heard (and I've sought out every one). It may very well be the best. It is absolutely stunning, mysterious, haunting, evocative, sacred and sublime. Renz and his company deserve the highest praise possible. I do wish that the poster would add the name of the superb countertenor who is singing here. Deepest thanks for the music.
I heard this last night on air and came to listen here. Online it says:
David James - countertenor
Marshall Coid - countertenor.
@@ATrain1550 Thank you Susan! Marshall Coid was in fact the counter tenor I heard perform this live with the Ensemble for Early Music, but I did not know if he was the performer on the CD.
@@hudsony777 Well I''m confused Claudio, because the CD states Marshall Coid as the countertenor. But that's assuming the version here is the same one as found on the CD "A Medieval Christmas."
@@orcagna164 I really have no idea. I found it here...a year ago:
www.arkivmusic.com/classical/album.jsp?album_id=7004
Just trying to help. It's so mesmerizing whoever it is.
😅 Very Good And Nice Song
Thank you Clarice. This is lovely and one really should lie on their back to listen. ♥️
Very nice... It's exalt and calms me down somehow.
Louange à Dieu le Père,
Louange à Jésus-Christ vrai Lumière,
Louange à l'Esprit-Saint l'intercesseur :
Un seul et même hommage à l'auguste Trinité.
Amen
Qu'il en soit ainsi +
I wish you'd posted the score as it was performed so I could do my best to read along.
Avevo bisogno di riscoprire cosa può fare di bello l'uomo.
0:39 Anybody know if this kind of sound/motif has a name? The constant note under a melody on a violin-ish instrument. I just love the sound.
Organum
More generally I believe a sustained note like that (e.g. Indian music, sitar) is called a drone.
❤️
nice msuic 🔥
This is the original voice.
I heard this song first in the series " Ripley" from netflix ...ethereal ..
Moi je comprends rien
Heard the violins she had a lot to her voice. It was almost like Opera. It had a lot of medieval times.
She's a he.
This is a counter tenor? Wow!
Sounds right!
Are you sure? It sounds more like a soprano.
WOW!!!
Beautiful. I wonder what kind of instrument is shown at ca. 1:03....
I think it is a carillon
Notre Dame de Paris....
B Latio-that's how I found it too! A great way of rediscovering famous titles!
Really should have used the right manuscript image for the Beata viscera. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C3%A9rotin#/media/File:Beata_viscera.jpg
Who sing this???
Marshall Coid, counter tenor
Blessed flesh of the Virgin Mary,
at whose breast the king of eminent name,
concealing, under altered guise,
the force of divine nature,
has sealed a pact of God and Man.
O astonishing novelty and unaccustomed joy
of a mother still pure after childbirth.
Vision does not endure to behold in its radiance
the sun, unconcealed, as he rises forth, pure.
Let the wholly enclosed womb of the mother
behold from the side as it is reflected.
O astonishing novelty and unaccustomed joy
of a mother still pure after childbirth.
Every so once in a while I stumble upon good music and I listen to it of course and it does make my day.
Well welcome to the family...
There is no room for like in between
''Love conquers all''
Love conquers all!
*if elephants come we fight back
*if humans come we'll fight back
*if evil comes we'll fight back
They really knew how to write music in those days
Does any organ music survive from this period?
Why did they bring out instruments? How did they pick notes for them?
Perotin among the first composers” The best !
I guess it's all ok , good and well and I would leave it that way.
I would also
Wasn't this the same piece used in the 1991 Enigma album?
me recuerda a unravel

Populus gentium
sedens in tenebris

partus tam celebris:
Iudea tedium

delicet funebris,
O mira novitas

O mira novitas

Blesses Womb of the Virgin Mary
Blessed womb
of the virgin Mary
on whose breasts
the king of great name;
under others garments
concealing his divine power
formed a treaty
for men and God.
O new marvel
and new joy,
a mother still virgin
after giving birth.
The people having been born of nations
sitting in darkness so prevalent
rose to joy;
Judea supported weariness
in retreat,
the heart bearing honesty
may it acknowledge the death.
O new marvel
and new joy,
a mother still virgin
after giving birth.
The mysteries of the Mosaic law
have been closed;
mystical fruit of the rod
not know by nature;
water from the rock,
a column leading the way,
they are speeding signs
for the people of the Lord.
O new marvel
and new joy,
a mother still virgin
after giving birth.
May I reveal, may it be pondered,
while the pure one rises
in heaven you are seen
a vision not suffered
may he see from the side
while it is reflected
the womb birthed a child
which is wholly closed.
O new marvel
and new joy,
a mother still virgin
after giving birth.
