    Bruckner: mass in E minor

    The Mass No. 2 in E minor, by the austrian composer Anton Bruckner is a setting of the mass ordinary for eight-part mixed choir and wind band (2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns, 2 trumpets and 3 trombones) was first created in 1866. About one hundred years later later our music teacher rehearsed this piece of music with our school choir acompanied by organ. As far as I remember the soprano sang like angels.
    The setting is divided into six parts.

    1. Kyrie – Ruhig Sostenuto, E minor
    2. Gloria – Allegro, C major
    3. Credo – Allegro, C major
    4. Sanctus – Andante, G major
    5. Benedictus – Moderato, C major
    6. Agnus Dei – Andante, E minor veering to E major
      With the part „Agnus Dei“ this piece of art fades away like a prayer for peace.

    You can get an impression of the singing when listening to the Universitätschor München. Don't miss to look into the faces.
    Kyrie:

    I am pleased to see that rhis mass is liked in at least one other part of the world as well, in South-Korea:

    Art Director & Conductor - Jong-Hyun Kim
    예술감독 & 지휘 - 김종현

    Choir - Incheon City Chorale
    Orch. - Incheon Phillharmonic Orchestra

    Cheong Malo

    Korea is not all K-Pop. If the language puts you off, the second song on the video is in English. She scats a lot, perhaps why she is sometimes known as the Ella Fitzgerald of Korea. A live performance. The artist is found by searching "Malo" and ignoring the latino group references. All her recordings are on Napster (formerly Rhapsody).

    Not a ballad...

    ...and a good illustration of why Jazz piano players are considered up with the best. Also a good illustration of what scat singing is, if one is not familiar.

    clark,
    thank you for the presentation of Cheong Malo who i have not known before.
    The language is no problem, although I have not learned any Korean. A well educated person /singer can qlways xpress any mood or intention in his own languge.
    The recitation of
    Cheong Malo shows, that she does not need an overwhelming orchestra to impress the listener.
    Clark, I'm as usual impressed by your finds.

    You are quite welcome , Peter. I am pleased you enjoy her art. You are one of the very few I have known who are unfazed by performance in languages not understood. I barely even note it anymore. Here in the far less cosmopolitan USA it bothers almost everyone I have known. I listen to a lot of music in Irish (Gaelic), Scots Gallic, Breton, Portuguese and Spanish. I can't get any of my friends to listen to it. "I can't understand what they are saying."

    I just found a live recording of Pé in Éirinn Í by Muireann. She is slightly softer of voice because she is very pregnant. It is on the bonus DVD from The Transatlantic Sessions 5 (2011). It begins at about 3:46. The audio sync is ragged and way off, but in addition to the original accompaniment Jerry Douglas plays lap steel (for once, instead of Dobro) and Aly Bain plays fiddle. Those two are the founders and backbone of the Transatlantic Sessions.

    I am certain this is on the bonus tracks because the format of the series is a lot of musicians performing together in higher energy presentations, but while this didn't fit, it is way too brilliant to leave out altogether. You may find this audio absolutely haunting.

    WE all have different ideas of "Great voices" .... I don't think the genre matters , tho many of those voices stick to a single one.

    I sometimes just let Pandora roll all day for BG ...

    lately have been hearing a lot of Marilyn McCoo

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marilyn_McCoo

    she sounds "just right" for my ears ... wish she'd branched out a bit.
    Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
