If you ever doubt the existence of heaven then listen to music like this and you have to realize that there is a place higher and loftier than here to be worthy of it.
There is more English people now living in USA than UK if you take 3rd 4th generation English to account. Not Irish or Scotish british English. So never be suprised what comes out of that great country that the anglosaxon built with a little help with their friends.. lol
Thank you UNT and UA-cam for presenting superb musical interludes that I as an impoverished pensioner, would never otherwise afford to hear. It lifts my spirits.
The memories this brings back to me, now in my older years. We sang this my freshman year in college. A few years later, i was a grad student where you are now, then called North Texas State University. Oh, to dial back the clock about 50 years.
This is probably the first *serious* performance of this work that I've seen on UA-cam. Every high school "top choir" and collegiate chorial union performs this, so I was expecting some "ok" background music while I work. But before I went to a different window, I saw some period instruments. Then I heard musical (not just technical) and *meaningful* use of dynamics. And I heard an engaged chorus in which each part was well-represented, functioned independently, and worked seamlessly. And the soloists held their own. I'm thoroughly impressed! Well done to all musicians and sound/video technicians involved in this production.
Tx for your insights. I agree. Often disappointing performances but this one is very committed to the spirit of this great opus by the legendary Vivaldi; always complex, always astonishing these centuries later, & forever, I guess. That’s true immortality isn’t it? Look! You can see Vivaldi manifest in the performers as they play & sing. How extraordinary! I tried 4 before landing on this one. I suppose I’m a bit Eurocentric so tend to listen to the Germans, Italians, Dutch, Czech and so forth. But this one gets downloaded. ❤
It’s good to see college “kids?” doing something this diificult with their time and talent. The practice time that each of these students must commit to is an exceptional discipline. They are both inspired and inspiring.
I currently attend UNT as a music major. There are whole degree paths for music of this time period. Literally a classroom which says "Early Music" and across the hallway, a recital space with a full size organ. Next door is the harpsichord room (I think one of the only schools in the USA that features harpsichord as a main concentration). This concert hall seen in the video also has a full pipe organ built into the walls. The students here are the real deal, there are some serious talents.
An addendum to my first comment: this proves, beyond any doubt, that music is the universal language. No one could, in my opinion, sing a work like this and stay enemies with other singers. It recalls the words of that commercial so popular in the late '60's, "I'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony....it's the real thing. "
Whenever I see Vivaldi, I want to click on it. Fine performance, and as a 61 yr old man in this day in age, it's very refreshing to see a group of fine looking youth.
So beautiful! Thank you so much Lord today again specially! All the grace and the glory to our God Almighty the Father Jesus Christ our Lord again! Thank you so much for sharing today again! God bless all! God bless AMERICA!
Thank you so much Jesus Christ today again specially! All the grace and the glory to our God Almighty the Father Jesus Christ our Lord today specially! Thank you so much for sharing today again! God bless all! God bless AMERICA!
Vivaldi outdid himself in this piece. And this performance is spectacular and brilliant. The soloists sang so beautifully I could hardly stand it. Definitely the best performance of this marvellous piece I've ever heard. Bravo!
What a WONDERFUL performance! I've only listened to the first 2 movements so far, but the choir can be heard clearly above the orchestra. Everyone knows their music and is together, including orchestra and choir, and you can hear the passion as expressed by changes in dynamics by the choral singers. I sing with a choir, and I can imagine the tremendous amount of preparation which went into this great performance.
@AdonisFridplin: "Simple piece of music" you say. And how many times professional orchestras butcher a "simple piece of music", rendering it blah and without dynamic variations. Give credit to the conductor. And the female soloist is excellent, as are her smooth trills--I've heard so-called professionals deliver ghastly trills. The choir is great, too--none ofcthe voice parts overpower each other nor does any individual voice stick out. The orchestra is excellent, too. Everybody is just a kid yet they all outshine many so-called "pros". I wish them all great, longlasting careers in music should they wish to make music their lives. At the very least I hope none of them ever stop playing for their enjoyment and continue to jam with other musicians and maybe participate in a concert from time to time.
I watched my 24 year old perform it as a senior in High school 7 years ago (violin), and my youngest perform it last night (soprano)....Brings a tear to my eye every time I listen to this. What a maestro Vivaldi was.
Glorious music, thank you, Vivaldi. Thank you to the School of Music at North Texas State, Denton who still inculcates such beauty in the souls of young people. Bravo!
Well over 60 years ago, I had the good fortune to have a high school choral instructor who often pushed the envelope, challenging us to perform what I considered more advanced music. My first exposure to this work was when I was barely 15 years old & have loved it ever since. This performance by U of North Texas is exceptional.
Merveilleux ,de revivre ce Gloria de Vivaldi si porteur de SENS en cette période de troubles ... Merci à vous , les artistes musiciens , si bien orchestrés ... Une si belle osmose et une si belle harmonie qui vient illuminer cette journée !!
I had the privilege of singing Vivaldi's Gloria in the Emmanuel College Choral Society 60 years ago under the direction of Sister Terese Julie,S.N.D. It is one of my proudest achievements. MDK
From the composer to the conductor to the musicians to the audio-visual team to the printers that printed the sheet music - proves there is God. All in all completely amazing. Wonderful.

While I agree the conductor is pretty mundane, a lot of times in "early" music you see the conductor not doing much because historically the harpsichordist would have been the one conducting. Intact, this tradition was still in effect during the performances of Haydn's piano concertos. Today, we want conductors, so to split the difference between modern and historic performance practice, the conductor will opt to show few romantic gestures and instead let the "baroque" musicians interpret the music themselves.
Very concise in its connection with The Father. You watch this with good sound , then you have received. WONDER FULL......nice comment...changed my day.

Un meravigliosa composizione del grandissimo Vivaldi!! una esecuzione esemplare!!! una orchestra di giovani simpatici e appassionat!!!i un direttore che ha interpretato in modo magistrale!! un vero capolavoro che non mi stanco di ascoltare e riascoltare!!!
With young singers and musicians like these there is a fine future ahead. A very beautiful rendition of a Vivaldi that is not that easy to perform: mes compliments !

Bravo not only to the conductor and musicians, but to the audio/video team as well. They did an excellent job and truly have allowed the music to shine through, with nice balance and tone. Great performance with great recording skills.
You put into words exactly what I was thinking. Many sound engineers are clueless as to how to record a well-blended choir such as this one. But this team truly got is right.
My Son is a very experienced sound recording engineer/producer,and has recorded many projects such as this,it takes a lot of skill to capture a balance of various sounds and timbres in a cathedral setting,taking natural accoustics into account,and I am pleased that the engineering team have been given credit here, by Brad Zabelski,most often the audio is criticised by unqualified know-alls! This performance is worthy of the skills of all concerned in the making of the project! Cheers Brad,and those who have replied in a very sensible and positive manner!
Perfect pace.not too fast nor too slow.having the perfect pace brings out the dramatic mood vivaldi is trying to capture and the imense outerwordly beauty of this piece by vivaldi.exceptionally beautiful.
Thank you so much Jesus Christ today again specially! So beautiful! So wonderful! All Your works are endlessly! All the grace and the glory to our God Almighty the Father Jesus Christ our Lord today again specially!
Such a great performance! So balanced and harmonious, wonderful soloists with a rich and special voice. I wanted to thank you for this gift you gave us, I'm listening to it every night before I fall asleep and every time I admire you again. Thank you Thank you Thank you University of North Texas College of Music, for this precious gift!
Listening to this from South Africa 🇿🇦. Absolutely beautiful and awe inspiring, warms the heart and spirit in a world gone mad.....Covid 19 , lockdowns and so much more. Thank the Lord for taking my mind off all the strife and sadness.
Kudos for the orchestra, the choirs, and especially the conductor who brought them together. This is an excellent performance of Vivaldi's Gloria. Congratulations to all!!!!!
Having viewed and listened to all the presentation of Vivaldi's Gloria that I have been able to find, I must say that this, in my humble opinion, is by far the best performance. I love it, and thank the performers profusely.
A wonderful polished performance given on a high pofessional level by COLLEGE STUDENTS in Denton Texas. If this can happen in the United States today, we are not in NEARLY as bad shape as too many would have us believe. The conductor, Richard Sparks, deserves a great deal of credit, for he has taught the young choristers to sing not only with accuracy and vigorous enthusiasm, but also with great sensitivity to the MEANING of the text.As for the SOLOISTS, we could never hope to hear anyone better equipped to "deliver the goods" than these remarkably gifted, well-trained, BEAUTIFUL young women.

Vivaldi é o maior compositor de todos os tempos; mestre e professor do Bach (organista e copista alemão) e de muitos outros compositores...Vivaldi is the greatest composer of all time; master and professor of Bach (German organist and copyist) and many other composers
Nothing ushers in the Christmas season for me more than to listen to Vivaldi's Gloria. It may have been recorded 12 years ago, but this version is new to me this season. Wonderful! My plan it to listen to it each day until December 25. Incredible soloists, orchestra and choir. My goodness. Thank you so much.
Richard Sparks. My first-time hearing of him. The most thoughtful performance of this piece I have heard yet. His tempo is perfect. The choral accompaniment is outstanding.
I've met and played with many students and grads from UNT over the years. They always have shown so much skill and gorgeous musicianship. This performance is no exception!!! Beautiful music done beautifully.
I asked my family to have this played when they carry my body out of the church following my funeral. I want people to feel joy when I have entered the Kingdom of God!

Nothing ushers in the Christmas season for me more than to listen to Vivaldi's Gloria. It may have been recorded 12 years ago, but this version is new to me this season. Wonderful! My plan it to listen to it each day until December 25. Incredible soloists, orchestra and choir. My goodness. Thank you so much.
Great interpretation. The soloists are amazingly talented! LOVE the alto at 17:07!
Wat ń voorreg om na sulke hemelse musiek te luister! Dion Frouws -Suid-Afrika

Genuss pur !!
The depth of Gloria is immeasurable, and unimaginable
Love that mezzo soloist! What a rich, warm, yet clear voice!
Dio benedica il Prete Rosso, nunc et semper! Rappresentante dello spirito colto, fine e armonico del mio antichissimo e immortale Paese.
Vivaldi nos eleva os corações e no isolamento da pandemia, alivia nossa solidão. Gratidão
Richard Sparks. My first-time hearing of him. The most thoughtful performance of this piece I have heard yet. His tempo is perfect. The choral accompaniment is outstanding.
I've met and played with many students and grads from UNT over the years. They always have shown so much skill and gorgeous musicianship. This performance is no exception!!! Beautiful music done beautifully.
I have heard and seen many performances of Gloria. But this one is by far the best Congratulations from The Netherlands
Lovely to hear from you. Wish we were still in the union with you enjoying this incredible music .
La migliore esecuzione..?
Esagerato
Sing for heaven is
yours.
