The Chapel Choir of Downing College, Cambridge
Приєднався 22 жов 2020
The Chapel Choir of Downing College, Cambridge, sings Evensong on Sundays during term-time at 6pm in the College Chapel, as well as Choral Compline twice a term. Its members are made up of Choral Scholars and volunteers from Downing, and volunteers from across the University.
Downing is unique in Cambridge in that the entirety of the direction, accompaniment and administration of the Choir rests on the shoulders of the Organ Scholars, providing an unparalleled opportunity to experience fully the management of a liturgical choir. Former Organ Scholars have gone on to leading positions in English Cathedrals and elsewhere (e.g. Martin Baker - Westminster Cathedral, Ben Saunders - Leeds Cathedral), as well as a host of other non-musical careers.
Besides duties in the College Chapel, the Choir also undertakes cathedral visits and gives concerts further afield, as well as an international tour every year.

Order of Service: bit.ly/3n99yIo While the Covid-19 pandemic has unfortunately stopped us from holding our usual hugely popular Advent Carol Service in the Chapel here at Downing College this term, we hope this prerecorded Carol Service will go some way to filling the gap that this has left!

Jede menge stumme fingerwechsel😊
Delightful!
Wonderful ! Very well played ! Bravo !
Thank you 🙏
Wow... I have never heard this piece sound so light and airy. This is.. It is the perfect rendition. I love this piece, and I thought I had heard every interpretation of it.. But.. wow. Hats off to this incredible conductor. What a absolutely unique ear, surely one of the greats of our time. 😮😮
Please pray for me to sing to God and chant to God. I desire to give Him beautiful praise. I am learning how to chant but I am struggling. I desire to get better for my God.

Masterpiece! And a wonderful performance. Just beautiful...
Nicely done...thank you for sharing.
Henry Loosemore is a genius. I would listen this forever. Thank you so much, Choir !
O Lord, increase our faith !!!
Wonderfull. Here is some transcription for two clavecin. Simple suggestion for Buxtehude's lovers like me: ua-cam.com/video/5fmp_DQGN-8/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/d07Sxg4PcN0/v-deo.html much more impetuous but pinched cords are less proned to reverberation so it make sense and expend the composer's visions at some point don't you think?
"...Но жизнь бесконечную"
Как будто нет языкового барьера!
Just almost unimaginable and sublime beauty. Thank you.
Старинный русский погребальный гимн
Very enjoyable interpretation, especially with so few singers. I must have been highly distracted not to have noticed this being sung at Prince Phillips service at Windsor. It did jump out at me today at Queen Elizabeth's service there today. I could always enjoy more basses. But, good job. 👍
Very beautiful...I was awoken to listen tonight on radio, then listened again here..🧡👏🙌🙏
Beautiful!
A lovely performance. One suggestion, in future videos, please cover the flickering blue window above the center of the top register. It's very distracting. Thanks.
Good clean interpretation
I Love it🇧🇷🇧🇷
This is utterly sublime. Thank you.
Beautiful
Bravo bravo bravo bravo super
Almighty God, our eternal refuge, teach us to live with the knowledge of our death, and to rejoice in the promise of your glory, revealed to us in Jesus Christ our Lord Amen. “And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.” John 6:35
Amen
Beautiful message.
This masterpiece is Crazy. Amazing.
Wow... Really enjoyed the voicing and performance of this piece. Bravo
Very beautiful meaningful live interpretation, thank you for posting.
