How did Mozart come to write his Mass in C minor, and why was it not finished? Video released on the 238th anniversary of the first performance on 26 October 1783. NOTE: Designed as a lecture for choir conducting students and thus a bit technical at times.

    Oli todella hyvä ja mielenkiintoinen video. Häpeä sanoa, että googletin nimesi tämän jälkeen, että; Mikäs ukko se tämä on? No Suomessa ei varmaan liian ankara voi olla itselleen, ettei nykytaidemusiikkia tunne tarpeeksi. Minä olen vain tällane ukko, jota kiinnostaa taide ja puuhailen aina jottain. Täytyy laittaa sun sävellykset kuunteluun ja korjata tämä aukko nyt. Kiitos vielä.

    I know nothing about choral music, but as I live close to the site of Nonsuch Palace, I was looking for an introduction to Spem in Alium that I could understand. This video is brilliant in explaining something unfamiliar and rather complex in a way that is both informative and entertaining. No doubt many hours of creative work went into this video presentation, but the result is spectacular: Thank you, Jaakko Mantyjarvi, I now have a much greater appreciation of Spem in Alium and the work of Thomas Tallis. You have also inspired me to buy a number of different performances of Spem in Alium on CD and I'm enjoying hearing the similarities and differences.

      I appreciate your comment more than you might realise. Choral music often gets a bad rap because of the mediocre-church-choir stereotype, so I count inspiring anyone to become interested (or more interested) in choral music as a win. It is also fascinating that Nonsuch Palace was the link here! And to all who will see this reply and to whose comments on the video I have not responded to, I appreciate all your feedback and apologise for not responding individually.

    That whole passage is dangerous because it's just after the first tutti and choristers lose their concentration here. Choirmasters need to be strategic about who they put in these choirs. Completely agree about that note. I've performed the piece in the formation you describe and the spatial separation multiplies the difficulties. So many things can go wrong...

    What a great video! Informative and funny, a real treat to watch! I have loved Tallis and Spem in alium from a young age. My mother had a LP (remember those?) called the Glories of Tudor Church Music which was a collection of works by Tallis. Spem in alium was a crowning jewel of that collection. So sublime and extra special to see how it plays out in an octagonal space. I would love to hear it that way!
