Thanks DW Classical Music for the English dialogue and Kudos to Andreas Reize, after many deliberations clearly the man for the job!! 👏👏 👍👍 Long live The Thomanerchor !
My friend wants to go here. I said to him that he should go for it. Never give up. Myself however, i want to be a boeing 747 pilot, but tbh, this is fr a truly good school!
It's right that the profile of the St Thomas Choristers should be given in English. When I first had contact with them I hadn't got a clue who they were or how famous they were. I had no idea how famous they were in Germany or who I was going out with or being friends with. I really love it being that German and fraternal as well. It's really sweet. It's everything I love about Germany St Thomas's. I was a member of a Catholic Student Association at one time in Germany and I loved it, but I am Anglican which is protestant. I'm all too aware of what kind of tensions that can cause. I also studied in Wuppertal Conservatoire with some of them. They are lovely people. I was in a public school choir in England, that did similar things but not nearly as well as these guys. We were a good musical frat that has produced famous singers too, but the emphasis with these guys is teamwork not competitiveness which is so essential for choral singing. That's what makes them so exceptional. It took me a lot longer to be as good a musician as them, but I like to think that singing anything in my range, plus playing piano, and violin and being a composer and producer puts me somewhere within range of their skills. I am literally in love with them my ex having been one of their soloists and my bro their ex assistant cantor. I absolutely love them for being those people what a privilege it is for them and I too to have dated someone like that and been involved in their Bach Family on a personal level to a certain extent. I feel a deep love of Bach in a spiritual sense for that reason. It's also kept me very pro European and pro German despite Brexit. I gave up my degree in Classical Countertenor because I wanted to compose and I ended up gaining five musical skills rather than just singing. I'm currently studying audio engineering and music production. I had a similar experience to my exes first love in that splitting up from her drew me back into music and away form something else spiritually. Out of languages and linguistics and starting as a prolific composer. It was a profoundly spiritual experience for me. I never thought I was that person nor showed that much promise until it happened at 29. It happened so late no-one believed me but it did happen because of my association with you guys in a round about sort of way. I'm dreaming of one day coming to Leipzig again and singing in the Bachfest family choir. People in England aren't so evangelical about faith now. You have to be very careful about being that driven. It's not very popular to be guided my God and spiritual awareness like us people are judged solely on their material achievements in my town not their passion for music and what they are doing. You have to be so careful being like you guys in England. They hated me for being that gifted through falling in love and not form material wealth. I dislike my country and city intensely for it I'd much rather be like you. They weren't very respectful of love being part of my religious perspective in my home city, to them it's not sane. It's so English and so prejudice I hate it. We were the best politician but we haven't always been the most skilled doers of all time in everything. I think singing like you guy is doing, they think it's owning a huge house. You guys taught me that. Germany did when I lived there, that's what's made me join VOLT Europa a radical but small startup political party devoted to the cause of Britain rejoining the EU despite the fact it could get me into trouble domestically I believe in Germany and Europe because of you. Brexit will never win with me they were so cruel to me about it.
There is a really good documentary on them (German with English subtitles) called Die Thomaner: A Year in the Life of the St Thomas Boys’ Choir which you can buy from their online shop. They look to be in excellent hands with Andreas Reize: who seems to have lots of energy and passion.
For many years I have taken a special interest in St Thomas’s as the final home of the great Master, Johann Sebastian, and visited it from overseas. I enjoyed this video but wish I had seen it sooner. Thank you for the English text that makes it available to many more people, including me. Please go on performing, masks or no masks. However, I have an issue which might be just a translation problem: Andreas Reize aims to deliver historically informed music. (Excellent!) The text says that for this purpose, there should be VERY LITTLE VIBRATO. I think Bach’s music is truer with no vibrato at all (except the natural vibrato of the human voice which is unavoidable but not noticed, so it doesn’t matter). If we have a little vibrato in Bach, it is necessary to decide where it should be and how noticeable it should be. It is natural for boys (children) to sing without vibrato. I would not decree ‘no vibrato’ for Handel, because in many ways he is the opposite of Bach, and joining them on the basis of their births in the same year, is incredibly superficial. But I would be happiest if there was no vibrato in Handel and in all other music. To my ear it is a bad distraction and it is better if musicians sing and play on the pitch of the note as directed by the composer, instead of wobbling up and down on each side of it.
Have any of the 198 others been composers .Messaien succeded a composer organist . Many have done similrly at churches and colleges fo; centuries . Sinta Sincha Sincjha!
Liebe Frau Meyer, da wir User überall auf der Welt und in allen möglichen Sprachen haben, gibt es unsere Videos leider nur auf Englisch. Allerdings bieten wir den Service mit sehr gut erstellten englischen Untertiteln. Diese können Sie sich ins Deutsche übersetzen lassen. Und weil die englischen Untertitel sehr gut sind, sie die Übersetzungen von UA-cam meist auch sehr gut. (Unten rechts auf dem Video auf das Rädchen "Einstellungen" klicken, dann auf Untertitel, und dann Ihre gewünschte Sprache auswählen). Wir hoffen, dass Sie unsere Entscheidung für das Englische nachvollziehen können - und dass Sie mit den deutschen Untertiteln viel Freude beim Schauen dieser Musikdokumentation haben!

Thanks! But does English have to be spoken so loudly in addition to the English text that the German is not understood? That's nonsense.
Thank you for your feedback! Unfortunately, additive translation always results in the original audio being harder to understand.
For many years I have taken a special interest in St Thomas’s as the final home of the great Master, Johann Sebastian, and visited it from overseas. I enjoyed this video but wish I had seen it sooner. Thank you for the English text that makes it available to many more people, including me. Please go on performing, masks or no masks.

To my ear it is a bad distraction and it is better if musicians sing and play on the pitch of the note as directed by the composer, instead of wobbling up and down on each side of it.
That's what I like about boys' choirs; they (usually) sing with much less vibrato compared to adult women, ideally without any vibrato at all.
Meanwhile Mr Reize converted and has become a good Lutheran. Good on him.
How about Klaus Badelt?

Why dont you just use subtitels only? The english over voice is really annoying!
👏👏👏👏🙏🇩🇪DW
Fascinating documentary but hate the AI translated voice.
💝💗💖💕💞 ..
Ich kAn kein englische 😊
I cannot watch this. Seeing all these people still wearing muzzles sickens me.
She keeps on referring to 'the boys' meaning an all boys choir but these days 'the boy's choir' is no more - it's a mixed choir!!!
Bach’s Successor? You should be ashamed!
“Successore” è una parola grossa anzi, direi eccessiva. Formalmente esatta, ma sostanzialmente del tutto fuori luogo.
@@albertodraperis9886 yes… PR=LIES… this is not new. But those criminals lost control, and spreading their toxic BS everywhere. Unfortunately gullible ignorant people fall for that. Disgusting…
Successor as choir's manager/conductor. Definitely isn't meant successor as a composer
@@emilalbazi8691 are you kidding?exactly… is it sounds more reasonable to you?
Cheap PR toxicity that the “classical” “musicians” are addicted to.
laughable. You should be ashamed to confuse the cantor's position with that of a composer.
Masks make it unwatchable. Sorry.
