Pulchra es amica mea,
suavis et decora sicut Jerusalem,
terribilis ut castrorum acies ordinata.
Averte oculos tuos a me
quia ipsi me avolare fecerunt.
Du er smuk, min kæreste,
yndig som Jerusalem,
skræmmende som en hær under banner.
Vend dit blik fra mig,
det har forvirret mig.

I love the tempo the director chose. I have heard it at a faster tempo but it loses the majesty. Beautiful performance. Thank you! ❤

Davvero bellissimo e suggestivo, crea atmosfere di sogno. Ci si sente come se si galleggiasse in una nube, su un lago nordico...gli stessi cantori sono presi nell'incanto....

Great!! I really enjoyed the concert at Marmorkirken today!! I appreciate that concerts of this good quality are for free!
There is just one thing about your positions on stage. I think it might be better if men and women stand next to each other. Now the women´s voices are quite dominant and the choral setting could be more transparent in this acoustically difficult room. Not in this recording but in the Marmorkirken.
Anyway, thanks for this wonderful evening!

Norwegian ?!

[@kammerkoretmusica]

The composer is Norwegian, but the lyrics are Latin

Love this but the tempo is about 6 to 8 clicks too slow for my taste.
