Re: UK Cathedral Concerts in 2024

Those cathedrals were designed to have amazing acoustics. Boys have sung in them for hundreds of years without the need for microphones and speakers. Why do we suddenly need them now? :? This would have been worth an own topic. To give my two pence: In addition to what has already been said, I thin...

Re: UK Cathedral Concerts in 2024

I'm trying to avoid reading too much before Chester and Lincoln, but had a few "leaks" :wink: and saw that Twilight or at least its music :P is part of the set list. I'm SO very happy about it, this was a long, longing wish of mine which finally has come true. How many days until Chester?!...

Re: Applauding early

I didn't make it to Ely this time, but have experienced that, um, "club" as well repeatedly, so: I second every single one of your posts. It upsets me at any concert. Seems as if people want to brag with "Look, I am so familiar with this piece, I know when it's finished" or "...

Re: Musical gems

If I'm not mistaken I believe that Robert Prizeman was a devout and practicing Catholic, so his choice of a well known liturgical poem, which has been the basis of a number of liturgical hymns and anthems, is unsurprising. Though it looks like he added the lines "Creator conditor perpetua, Exu...

Oh my, you make it sound bad :lol: :lol: :lol: No-no, it's fine, honestly. :P I love both their voices and want to rather increase Liam's than decrease Tom's solos. :mrgreen: But like you, I've been wishing for more Liam solo recordings too. Here's one for you to replace the one I've just taken awa...

Re: Musical gems

5 Sancte (2008, New Dawn) - Liam Connery (source : Libera Passion, but is it not Tom Cully ?) I would love to think it is Liam, so he would be featured in the album and he deserves to, but I am pretty sure it is Tom Cully unfortunately... "Unfortunately"??? :lol: To my ears, it's Tom Cull...

Re: Forever (Spring 2023)

Um, I seem to hear a repetition of the words rather than what I posted before, so again it would be

Re: Forever (Spring 2023)

I'm actually looking forward to this one. I see they include a nice key change in the excerpt. Someone needs to notify kinda_k00l because I know he loves those key changes, and I do too. Add me to that club. :D And I love music with unforeseeable turns. - I like what I hear and I'm already jealous ...

Re: Schola Cantorum

I am very happy to have been able to attend the CVMS Leipzig performances. The trip more than paid off, as they performed three brilliant and very moving services: twice a so-called "Motette", a particular musical service at the Thomaskirche and a Sunday service followed by communion. The ...

Re: Carol of the Bells Review

I love how that the reviewer says some true things here, particularly at 4:04. So right! A note does not live only because it is made audible. You must shape it somehow, do something with it to bring it to life and to make the listener not only hear, but feel it. Otherwise it's just a "jacket&q...

Re: St John's Smith SQ Concert 2022 - Dec 4th

It's impossible for me to write a full review this time, so I limit myself to commenting with some reviewing remarks. 8) :) I was glad we got to hear Walking in the Air, with Luca doing the solo. Perfect and amazing. [...]. I really like the intro of this song when sang live, I always find it softer...
