- Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera, and four Welsh choirs, conducted by Jenkins himself on the occasion of his 60th birthday in February 2004. It was filmed in St David's Hall Cardiff (I was in the third row of the audience!)
It is a privilege to hear such wonderful music, and all for free ! Thank you Mauro Jose and that you UA-cam .
Outstanding performance. There are several other performances of this work on UA-cam but this one with Sir Jenkins is the best I've viewed. I especially like the fact that the challenging 'high notes' are spot on; no screeching with the sopranos or the piccolo.
I was there! Great performances, I have never seen so many performers on one stage.
I was just listen it tonight at Bellapais North Cyprus at the great athmosfer of abbey and the music mesage and the all esential things were great for us as a listeners..I was really breathless...
I am in goosebumps. Awesome. I love Karl Jenkins!
I have never thought that arms of any kind should be lauded or praised. Violence is horrid. Totally horrid✨💖✨
The man, the man, the armed man,
The armed man
The armed man should be feared, should be feared.
Everywhere it has been proclaimed
That each man shall arm himself
With a coat of iron mail.
I Have listened yesterday for my very first time to this great, moving, inspiring masterpiece executed by a wonderful joung orchestra and choir. Thanks for posting this great version. It is a very difficult music and not all what is to be found on you tube is of this quality. Thanks.
Karl Jenkins composed this on his 60th birthday . Quite remarkable really. Quite remarkable ✨🌹✨💖
I've realized how strong the virsatility of the melody is. :)
If you ever have a chance to perform it with a choir... TAKE IT.
i saw my friend play this with SUSO in march 2007 in stockholm, it was AMAZING! it made me crie!
i play the cello and so does he.
in ours days, Karl Jenkins and his projects, are the evolution of Human Music.
I saw it in a concert in our town and it was just great. It was conducted by a great musician I know personally, he teachs me leading a choir. A friend of mine sang in the choir and told me to go there and that was a really good advise :D
Really good music!
Joh, I've got goosebumps. Beautiful...
Don't know why but I love listening to this piece of music....wheres part two please?
Having performed the Armed Man twice, once at Chartwell on the 60th anniversary of D-Day, I can attest for just how challenging this work is. Needless to say this performance sets ours to shame. I sing tenor.
What a great piece of music

The man, the man, the armed man,

Wonderful piece of music 'The Armed man'
The best living composer!
awesome, spine tingling
lovely music so potent
This is very powerful and thought provoking
Impressive on so many levels.
oh wow, i love this!
i love this piece i'm currently working on it with my old chorus teachers adult church choir and it is so moving.
Dam good, i love Karl Jenkins and his The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace - The Armed Man. Its so a lovely and good
Just watched the Nottingham Trent university choir perform this. Absolutely spellbinding and tragic at the same time.
Amazing!
All the music deserved.
Karl Jenkins is a genius ! He did a very great job with this whole piece of music. I did this piece once in school it's pretty impressing.
thanks for posting it.(though the end is missing ^^)
Molto bella musica!!
stunning
the best composer

Magnífico
L'Homme Arme is medieval french folk song. Because of it's popularity, it became cantus firmus (main - obligated voice) for many renaissance composers' works,especially masses.
very nice! our choir is going to peform this too...
A truly amazing piece.
FYI: I sang in the chorus at the Royal albert Hall (13th July 2008)
Mike Brewer Is an absolute legend
this guy is so cool
Wow it must be impressive... A friend asked me to go on the concert in our town with her but I was in holidays in this time, sadly ;)
I'm singing this in the DuPage Chorale at College of DuPage, Glen Ellyn, IL this May...incidentally, Karl Jenkins looks a bit like my conductor, with a similar mustache, but longer hair. But it is a fascinating piece, even though a few of the movements are a bit depressing.
Karl is a great composer ;]
Napoleons Old Guard on the advance...
would be a great Soundtrack! Damn good piece of art!
The end was cut off because of my calculation wrong at the time of extracting from the dvd.
sorry
Great! Come to Spoleto festival please!!!
гениально!!!
Top Musik
Beautiful, dramatic and gripping. Thanks a lot for uploading this.
Nice.
Doing lots of Karl Jenkins pieces for my school concert tomorow so nervous! And I am in the front row!
My brother was in the choir who sang this!
I heard someone fainted while singing it...O.o
Maybe it was another song, I forget...D:
I'm in your choir!!
One heck of a performance tonight, wasn't it? :D
Yes ;) ly :*
I'm gonna be in that choir, if everything goes fine. :). Hi mate! :D
I think the full score is only available to hire if you get the performance license.
I was lucky enough to get a look at the score before the Auckland Premiere in the Auckland Town Hall on the Seventh of June 2008
@abbeltuinstra l'omme , l'omme l'omme armé ... a man, a man, a man of arms :)
yes i ment video black and white...that beautiful documentary...seems like you are good at dates:P
you mean the black and white vid in the background? I hope thats what you mean, because the performance was Glasgow Royal Concert Hall, September 11 2006, 7:30 pm.... your move.
L'Homme armé, this music is a french medieval music by Dufay!
#peace
i sang this in my earlier years. lol
@squidge125 This song was written by Guillaume Dufay (15-th century)
@AdamAus85
...the song is called The Armed Man >.>
chilling
Excellent. Where can I find this DVD with the visual effects as well?
Me gusta
Can anyone reference me to more pieces like this, I love the mass singing.
L'Homme Armé ^^
genial... mehr kann man zu dem Gesamtwerk: "The Armed Man" einfach nicht sagen.
where is the full concert please
@KanonymusK
Of course, none of the lyrics are by Jenkins. He's the composer of the music, and he took his texts from widely different sources.
@AvengerXP This piece is from Dufay but the whole mass is by him... He´s not saying that L´homme armé is from Jenkins...
I like the old French song that's used ("L'homme armé"), and there are some exciting flourishes and orchestral colours
Unfortunately, as sometimes happens with Jenkins' music, it gets a bit repetitive without actually going anywhere

Brilliant, is there a DVD I have the CD but would love a DV D of this concert

Remercier je désire
à cette heure du soir
de ce point du monde
remercier je désire le labyrinthe divin
des causes et des effets
pour la diversité des créatures qui peuplent cet univers singulier
remercier je désire pour l'amour, qui nous fait voir les autres comme
la divinité les voit
pour le pain et le sel
pour le mystère de la rose
qui donne de la couleur
et ne la voit pas
pour l'art de l'amitié
pour le dernier jour de Socrate
pour la langue, qui peut simuler la sagesse
remercier je désire pour le courage
et le bonheur des autres
pour la patrie ressentie dans le jasmin
et pour la splendeur du feu qu'aucun humain ne peut regarder sans une stupéfaction antique
et pour la mer qui est la plus proche
et la plus douce de tous les dieux
remercier je désire
parce que les lucioles sont de retour
et pour nous quand nous sommes ardents et légers
quand nous sommes joyeux et reconnaissants
pour la beauté des mots
nature abstraite de Dieu
pour la lecture, l'écriture,
qui nous font explorer nous-mêmes
et le monde
pour le calme de la maison
pour les enfants
qui sont nos divinités domestiques
pour l'âme,
car si elle descend de sa marche
la terre meurt
pour le fait d'avoir une soeur
remercier je désire pour tous
ceux qui sont petits, clairs et libres
pour l'art ancien du théâtre,
quand il rassemble encore les vivants
et les nourrit
pour l'intelligence de l'amour
pour le vin et sa couleur
pour l'oisiveté avec son attente de rien
pour la beauté tant ancienne
et tant nouvelle
remercier je désire
pour les visages du monde
qui sont variés
et certains sont adorables
pour quand la nuit l'on dors embrassés
pour quand on est attentif et amoureux
pour l'attention qui est la prière spontanée de l'âme
pour nos maîtres immenses
pour ceux qui au cours des siècles
ont raisonné en nous
pour toutes les bibliothèques du monde
pour ce fait de se sentir bien parmi les autres qui lisent
pour le bien de l'amitié
quand l'on dit des choses stupides
et chères
pour tous les baisers d'amour
pour l'amour qui te rend intrépide
pour le contentement, l'enthousiasme, l'ivresse
pour nos morts
qui font de la mort un lieu habité.
Remercier je désire
parce que la musique existe
sur cette terre
pour la main droite et la main gauche
et leur accord intime
pour ceux qui sont indifférents à la notoriété
pour les chiens, pour les chats,
êtres fraternels chargés de mystère
pour les fleurs et la victoire secrète
qu'elles célèbrent
pour le silence et ses nombreux dons pour le silence qui est peut-être la plus grande leçon
pour le soleil, notre ancêtre.
Remercier je désire
pour Borges
pour Whitman
et François d'Assise
pour Hopkins, pour Herbert
parce qu'ils ont écrit déjà ce poème,
pour le fait que ce poème est inépuisable et change selon les hommes
et il n'atteindra jamais le dernier verset.
Remercier je désire
pour les minutes qui précédent le sommeil,
pour les dons intimes que je n'énumère pas
pour le sommeil et la mort
ces deux trésors occultes.
Et enfin remercier je désire
pour la grande puissance de l'antique amour
pour l'amour qui meut le soleil et les autres étoiles.
Et bouge tout en nous.

c'est trop fort, c'est d'après la messe de l'homme armé de guillaume dufay (XVè siècle)
evidemment, ca change de la version originale, mais c'est génial
if someone could translate it, would appreciate it
@sintofg I am currently writing a Mass setting. It is not in any Renaissance style even though I like to weave my voices around a bit. It is, by my own estimation, languishing miserably below the standard of probably all Renaissance composers ever heard of, but , according to that same faculty of self criticism, if I did not consider it superior to the standard of KJ I would humbly call it a day. I lack the fame, the resources and, most crucially, the hard neck required for self promotion.
porque cortaste el final?
que mal hiciste
@Fladabosco No. Definitely NOT written by Dufay. The song is much, much older.
Try ksiads one. It looks like being the same choir and orchestra.
where was this video taken? does anybody now?
Excellent arrangement! Thank you for the vid! Am I missing something... The ending seems cut-off on this... is there another vid recording of this piece with the ending included?
¿Por qué este video está cortado?
this song is not from Jenkins.
it is originally the fifteenth century folk song L'homme armé.
anyway his music's great! :)
Iam a armed man on gta v
What happened to the last of the video??
it's red square in moscow
So impressive! Love the multi media. (where do I get a translation??)
first movement: l'homme armé (french text)
Yo. How'd it go?
Where is the rest :/
I don't believe this song was written by Dufay although he frequently gets the credit for it. Many sources say this was a popular song before Dufay used it.
Yes, so why are (a) people saying Jenkins composed it and (b) are praising it so much? It's overly simple.
which country is the one on the video?
At the beginning there are flags of Joseph Stalin, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR)
@alipitogen then why don't you compose your own Renaissance Mass piece and then have it evaluated by others who are well known in that area of music with many years of expierence and see what they say about it.
**A full version of this wonderful video has posted by another user.**
enjoy!

Should have asked. Who is this? Where do I get the DVD?
@markusboyd3 Didn't know all the rest had died !
