I just realized that the blonde solo singer was once part of VOCES8! I thought she looked very familiar.

Nice to see (and hear) Eleanor again - Beautifully done!

[@edwing71]

Eleonore!

[@virisithierenn]

Fantastic. This is my favorite rendition of this succulent piece. Maybe "succulent" isn't the best adjective but "gorgeous" and "breathtaking" you already have heard. It's like bathing in caramel and black tea.

[@EnsembleAltera]

Thank you so much😊

THIS IS SO BREATHTAKING. What a clean rendition 💖

O salutaris Hostia,
Quae caeli pandis ostium:
Bella premunt hostilia,
Da robur, fer auxilium.
Uni trinoque Domino
Sit sempiterna gloria,
Qui vitam sine termino
Nobis donet in patria.
Amen.
O saving Victim,
Who expandest the door of heaven,
Hostile armies press,
Give strength; bear aid.
To the One and Triune Lord,
May there be everlasting glory;
who life without end
gives us in the homeland.
Amen.
O saving Victim,
opening wide
The gate of Heaven
to man below;
Our foes press hard
on every side;
Thine aid supply;
thy strength bestow.
To thy great name
be endless praise,
Immortal Godhead,
One in Three.
Oh, grant us endless
length of days,
In our true native land with thee.
Amen.

Stupenda esecuzione!

[@mwnyc3976]

I see that Eleonore is now listed as a regular member of Ensemble Altera. Does this mean she has moved to the States?

[@pianxtremeyt]

She has. The other one is Elijah McCormack, Sopranista.

Oh good! Eleonore is a fine addition to our ranks of singers!
And I recognized Elijah, who did an excellent job as part of the Evangelist Quartet in Arvo Pärt's Passio in NYC in late January.

​@@mwnyc3976 Oh my, She is the He, that explains a lot in the strength of this soprano :), I have been fooled with the dress like outfit.

[@marie85]

A couper le souffle....

[@luiznavas]

Hey guys, you may wanna check the link to the album. Doesn't seems to be working - I think there's an extra ")" in it.
