I'm fighting back tears.This is beautiful. It's so powerful yet delicate. I remember singing it at candlemas and thinking it was too slow and a bit boring. What a foolish child I was!! Thank you for uploading.
yas o I’m genuinely exactly the same, but I’m still a child singing haha, but starting to appreciate music that I used to find boring like this and Palestrina type things. This piece is so beautiful though!

I love the ability to sing along, with the music provided as well - fantastic for practice, thank you so much. I haven't sung this for years, but needed to check it out, and found I knew it. Lovely anthem, Candlemas is the obvious occasion to use it, but it's also useful for rememberance or funeral, because of the words at the end.
What a fantastic site you have on here. Very helpful having the score with the music. Very useful for rehearsing. We sang this at the Candlemas service on Sunday. You have some other cracking pieces on there too. This is wonderful, thank you. Caroline
To enable anyone who wants to sing along at home, the creators of these wonderful items should present the next image a second earlier than the sound, so that the singer can see what note is coming next, before the sound is heard.
Happens again with Peter Cornelius' Three Kings from Persian lands afar/Drei Kön'ge wandern aus Morgenland which is a staple of Christmas music in Britain
Just a query as I don't have the sheet music to hand and haven't sung it in years, but I seem to remember the S1 part, possibly "as it had been reveal'd" but if not, definitely one of the same sequences being different from the rest: no dotted crotchet on the G, but a straight crotchet.
Beautiful piece, which I'm singing this evening for Candlemass. Thank you for uploading!
Brings back fond memories when I was fortunate to sing in a good M&B choir, back in the early 70s.
Haven't sung this for several years now, but absolutely loved it as a young baritone (and still do).

Well, why don't you take the time and trouble to do it?
learn to read music properly, fool!
Reading music properly is reading ahead of what you're actually singing or playing. You can't do that with these scrolling scores.
@@WallyfromPgh Reading per se. Not only music.
I never imagined a German christmas motet would be translated into Englisch. The actual name of this piece is "Maria wallt zum heiligtum" btw.
Yes, it is a shame more German choral music is not translated. In the many Episcopal churches I sang this was sung yearly.

beautiful~~~ wanna play in string quartet
What I would call a roast beef recording: everything in the dynamic range between mf to f.
Do you have some evidence that Eccard used a wider dynamic range?
@@WallyfromPgh pp at the beginning of the second half lol
We do this in armagh cathedral

Luke 2:22-29
I could not hear the bottom D from the second bass at the end......shame!
