Jake Runestad: Alleluia
National Taiwan University Chorus; Fang-Pei Tracy Lien, Conductor
Bruckner: Os Justi
Bach Collegium San Diego; Ruben Valenzuela, Artistic Director
The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom,
and his tongue speaks what is just.
The law of his God is in his heart:
and his feet do not falter.
Alleluia.
I have found David, my servant;
I have anointed him with my holy oil.
Alleluia
Elaine Hagenberg: O Love
(I couldn’t find information on the singers or the cellist and pianist.)
Eriks Esenvalds: Amazing Grace (John Newton hymn)
Vlaams Radio Koor; Klaas Stok, Conductor
Samuel Barber: Agnus Dei
Vlaams Radio Koor; Marcus Creed, Conductor
Rihards Dubra: Duo Seraphim
El León de Oro; Marco Antonia García de Paz
The anthem Duo Seraphim mixes the vision of the prophet Isaiah of the two seraphim who proclaim to each other before God the Trisagion, that is, the three times holy to God, together with a text of the First Letter of Saint John, in which he affirms the unity in the Trinity.
Salamone Rossi: Psalm 124
USC Thornton Chamber Singers; Nathan Fratzke, Conductor
… totally different, and something I posted in the past, I’m sure. But I need this today. I heartily recommend turning the sound up. (After the singing is over, though, there is talking and unless you understand German you might decide to hit stop.)
Anton Bruckner: Os Justi Meditabitur Sapientiam
Bavarian Radio Chorus
The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks what is just.
The law of his God is in his heart: and his feet do not falter.
Alleluia
(Side note: Those on Facebook and Google+ will see this because both this and my photo site are set to automatically share posts on those. I’m finding social media was bashing my heart just a wee bit too much, and I needed a break.)
So no oboe on this one, but I thought it was quite beautiful, and wanted to share it to bring it to clarinetists’ attention. I wish one could see the performers doing what they do, but the group only shared the image of their recording.
