my favorite part is 1:26 to 2:03. This Te Deum is brillant.

I wish they wouldn’t sing vibrato; this music is written for plain voice.

A highly commendable performance of virtuosi! Use of a large Venetian style theorbo adds swell onto figured bass. Admired tradition of Cambridge. Notes from theorbo, from organ and trumpets harmonise so smoothly to the extent that you do not even hear the sonorous cross over point between different instrument.

This has really inspired me. The countertenor is particularly sublime. Shame about the philistines who don’t get it….

What a countertenor! I dream of getting tone, flexibility, precision and enunciation like that. Simply wonderful.

To date : over 17 thousand views. Can’t be as boring as that. You might think these “dudes” are “nerds” but I’d be surprised if you could do better otherwise you wouldn’t say such a thing. A great piece and very well performed in my opinion.

Henry Purcell and G F Handel, the greatest composers that ever lived and grace this earth. Forgive me, but Bach and Beethoven pale in comparison

I was a part of a choir that visited this choir in Cambridge and heard them sing something in Latinand English, vague memories from 5 years ago when I was 13-14.
