- Listen to the new album: lnk.to/GreenBladeRiseth
O salutaris Hostia, by Gioachino Rossini (1792-1868), from the new album 'Now the green blade riseth'. The Choir of King's College, Cambridge, is directed by Daniel Hyde.
Now the green blade riseth is a procession through time and history, with music rooted in ancient Gregorian chant all the way through to contemporary works charting the course of Holy Week and Easter.
The album presents not only a rich variety of choral music but a demonstration of the flexibility and agility of the Choir of King’s College: Daniel Hyde conducts the Choir in music from the ‘Golden Age of English Polyphony’ (Byrd’s Civitas) and the era of Italian grand opera (Rossini’s O salutaris Hostia), as well Victorian, Edwardian and mid-twentieth century choral masterpieces.
A selection of popular Easter hymns structures the programme, which culminates in Duruflé’s stunning transcription of Tournemire’s Choral Improvisation sur le ‘Victimæ Paschali’, performed by Matthew Martin on the King’s College organ.

O salutaris Hostia,
Quæ cæli pandis ostium,
Bella premunt hostilia,
Da robur, fer auxilium.
~~~
Lord, who for us was sacrificed,
Thou opened heaven’s portals wide;
Guard us, guard us now from our foes, O Christ,
Thy strength and saving help provide.
~~~
Words: St Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) Translation: John Rutter (b. 1945)
A number of versions of this on YT, but in my humble opinion this is by far the best with dramatic dynamics and a perfect tempo. You can come very close, but you just can't beat Kings! Beautifully done as usual.
Exquisite, as ever! Daniel Hyde is doing a wonderful job.
The ethereal ebb and flow of King's. Superb blend and powerfully uplifting.
Goosebumps. Angels in praise and worship. I’m looking forward to Birmingham Cathedral’s choir singing this next Sunday service 😢🥹💕✝️💕 so beautiful
we sang this at Princeton and in the great cathedrals of New York when I had the honor and privilege of attending the Royal School of Church music. It has stuck with me over the 40 years since then. I still remember all the words, though my voice can't even begin to sing this anymore. This performance sends shivers down my soul. I'm crying. Thank you.
Divine! Thank you, KingsCollegeChoir.
Bellissimo!
What a beautiful selection. Your voices are superb. Blessings to all of you!!!🙏
This group is incredibly talented and hardworking
Thank you for this heavenly beautiful music. It's such a respite from the crazy world we live in today. I'm jealous of the little kid with the thick curly auburn hair.
Astonishing-the richness of the parts is just gorgeous, including the full voice at the top of the register.
LOVE this choir. So extraordinary.
That glorious and grand sound is finally back. Bravo!!!
I hope the guy from the Helium baloon still there
This sounds just beautifull.
The best😍😍 bravissimi!
Thank God for Passiontide✝️♥️☦️

Bravi. Buona Pasqua a tutti
Isn’t it the F sharp version?
Beautiful❤✝️🙏🏽
Music has the power to bind and unite and wash away barriers that once kept us apart. It was only about a century ago that music in Latin by Roman Catholics would be sung, if at all, only in English translation in Oxbridge places. Across the Tiber, Music by non-Catholics would almost never be sung in RC churches with the possible exception of popular carols at Christmas. Now we celebrate in each others best traditions with respect, affection and Christian charity, all to the love and honor of the One who gave himself for us and our salvation.
I appreciate what you say about music, but still, Protestantism is a heresy. Always with charity, we cannot look at Protestantism as in equal terms with Catholicism, it would be the same as denying there is Truth.The Church does not have to pray for a once lost unity; it is and it will always remain united in the Truth of Christ. We pray for the return to that unity of those who decided to get away from it.
Maravilhoso
Thank you🙏 again

Oh Hostia de salvación,
que del cielo abres las puertas;
en los ataques del enemigo,
danos fuerzas, concédenos auxilio.
(Penúltima estrofa del himno eucaristico "Verbum supernum prodiens" de Santo Tomas de Aquino)
cool
That's the wonderful King's Choir that has been singing since 50 years before Columbus discovered America.

Really? Yet they all look so young.
@@majorlaff8682 lame
@@facitenonvictimarum174 Funny. Don't take life so seriously. I imagine the young lads would have a little chuckle themselves. Though the older ones may have a little groan.
@@majorlaff8682 you just felt the need to distract from my comment because you didn't know it and couldn't admit it, simple really.
@@facitenonvictimarum174 I understand you meant my comment was uninspiring or dull, and that may be correct from your perspective. I fully respect and appreciate the history and tradition of Kings, and many other Great British institutions. One of those institutions is comedy/humour, i.e. finding something funny in the most unlikely places. Still remember the primary school ditty, 'In fourteen hundred and ninety-two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue'. Read your original comment again. It may make you smile.
It's wonderful to hear the Choir singing in God's Very Own Language!!
God, as you believe, is the creator of this endless universe and does not have an ethnicity or a language. If God had a language, it would make him mortal and his religion a nonsense. Repeat that three times, then continue enjoying this beautiful performance.
@@atabayilker : An immortal God may adopt a language if He choses to; it's obvious that He has chosen Latin!
@@Toledo1940 that’s subjective and really does not matter in the slightest to who and what God itself is and the meaning of living in accordance of that life.
@@raymondtavener9797 Could you translate that into English??
@@Toledo1940 why do you believe he chose latin when Jesus spoke Aramaic?
Cantan hermoso, pero, por que no se peinan?
Less bright, but much more open and free. Sounds like an 80's recording.
шарик в студию
Never really understood choir music but it's very common in soulsborne soundtracks. It's sounds nice.
❤ ❤️🔥🤍 👰♀️. 💐
Not being disrespectful but really curious ... how tall do you suppose the Choral Master is? Looks at least 6 and a half feet tall!
Yes. Dan has Marfan Syndrome, a genetic condition that John Tavener (and i.a. probably Abraham Lincoln) also suffered from. He has had corrective heart surgery that means his future health should not be impaired.
Tbh this shi kinda scares me it’s like the scary songs in horrors for me I hate that shi
But still what talent
Btw I ment it like what great talent
They are not real human being
