Like the Hart

Like the hart longing after the founts of water, so does my soul yearn for you, O God...
My name is Raya. I am a complete musical rookie, completely new to music production, but my theory is that if you don't get started until you're professional enough, you won't get started at all. Something compels me to pursue beauty through sound, and I'm hot on the heels of this endeavour to bring my heart to the world of melody. My interests lie in historical/traditional polyphony and Gregorian chant, but recently my heart has been drawn to songwriting in folk music. We'll see where the road takes me.

Alma Redemptoris Mater (Palestrina)
This is my four-part rendition of Palestrina's Alma Redemptoris Mater. I have so many happy memories singing this piece during Christmastide! I hope you enjoy it. I'm experimenting more with adjusting the volume to attain some dynamics, which hopefully can be somewhat recognised what with RUclips's audio quality! To support me and purchase my music, you can go to likethehart.bandcamp.com. Christmas album coming soon! I truly appreciate your support, no matter how small! :)

This is I think my all time favourite Christmas song!! This is a very simple, classical acoustic version, but maybe when I'm better cut out I'll do one with a more substantial backing track! :) Merry early Christmas, everyone....! #newchristmassong #oholynight #christmascover #christmascarol

GLORIA - Missa O Magnum Mysterium
Просмотров 193День назад
This is my favourite Gloria piece, by Tomas Luis de Victoria, based on his "O Magnum Mysterium" piece. I sang it for the first time a couple of years ago in choir, and it became the theme song of my entire Christmas season! This is a three-part version for SSA (all me!). Again, I wish I could do justice to the beautiful composition, but I poured in a lot of heart, which one day I hope will matc...
KYRIE - Missa O Magnum Mysterium
Просмотров 253День назад
Three part all-female (all me!) arrangement! Polyphony takes me a lot longer to record than chant! This recording is not as brilliant as I'd like it to be (singing those high notes on "Ky" was so excruciating, I bet the people in my house were wondering what on earth I was doing singing that syllable over and over again to try and get it better...!) but nevertheless, I present the Kyrie from To...
Te Joseph Celebrent - Gregorian Chant
Просмотров 50914 дней назад
Another hymn for dear Saint Joseph. This one is traditionally sung on his feast day (March 19th) for Vespers. Did you know that purple is the symbolic colour for St Joseph? Even though he was just a carpenter in his life time, he was descended from King David, which made him of royal lineage, and purple is to signify his royalty. Check out the words and translation below! Te, Joseph, celebrent ...

Christe Sanctorum chant for the Angels
Просмотров 90921 день назад
I took the liberty of interpreting the "timing/beat" of this hymn to be slightly more "march-like" than I've heard before. I imagine it to be like the march o of the angels going to battle with the ancient serpent!

This beautiful and haunting hymn is sung traditionally at Lauds during Passiontide, in the Roman Breviary. Here are the lyrics and the translation below. My favourite stanza is the one calling on the cross of Christ to "soften its taut fibres" to allow Christ to rest upon His cross....

hi, raya! i very much enjoy your singing and your music always brings me calmness. you inspire me to sing, even if only when i'm alone with only god to hear me. hope this advent brings you much gaiety and thank you for sharing with us your beautiful voice!
Thank you for these beautiful words! Deo gratias! I'm so happy you've caught the "singing bug" 😊 I'm sure it makes Jesus smile! Merry Advent ❤❤
Thank you! 🤗🧡✨
This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.. such solitude
Santu Michele Arcangelo prega pe nnuje, difiennece e assistece spicialmente contr"o demonio. Pe Ggiesú Criste Nostro Signore! AMMEN 🙏🏻💙🪽✌🏻
Thank you for sharing. For those who want to know better about God's love for us, please read the Dolorous Passion of our Lord Jesus Christ by Blessed Catherine Emmerich (pdf). This book beside the Gospel is the foundation reading source for the making of the famous movie the Passion of the Christ (banned on RUclips) directed by Mel Gibson.
blessed voice
❤❤❤❤❤❤
How lovely, I'm sure you have an audience of angels in attendance everytime you sing. Blessings.☦️✝️💜
Keep going!
I really love this version!
Wow, beautiful voice! This channel is gonna blow up soon, keep at it 🙏🏼 God bless
@@GrandeSalvatore96 thank you so much!! 🙏🎶
Rather splendid singing, jolly good! 🎩👏🏼 Christ is King ⚜️✝️⚜️
Just found your page, and heard this gorgeous piece. Big wow! Your harmonies are fire. Really makes me feel the Spirit, thank you! Sounds a lot like the Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles!
Thank you so so much for these encouraging words and for listening to my music!! ❤️🎶 Means a lot!!
@likethehart For sure. I can hear the folk influence in your voice too, which makes for a really cool infusion with the traditional chanting. Sacred music is def a niche interest, and I'm in the same boat as you - love it but dont have the formal training i wish i did. Did you go through the online chant school perchance? Where do you get your sheet music?
But when the enemy stood ,Miachael said:øui ut Deus !
Beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
When your Christmas album is released, the three wise men will be stocking up.
I enjoy (Nay, LOVE) your efforts. Extraordinary for A novice! In you library and play lists, may I request that you try to produce an English translation for each piece: the melodies and and cantor are paramount, but the message is important to me. You are doing good work. Translating within the melodies and cantor would be extremely hard, but I bet you are up to that challenge. Keep singing, T 😊
Thank you for your kind words and your feedback! I always welcome recommendations :) Do you mean an English version put to the Latin melody(so, another video?) Or just a translation in the description?
GOD willing
Stunning
Beautiful ❤
Doce brisa restauradora
This is so beautiful! Thank you! God and Blessed Virgin protect you! Your voice is special!
Pronuncia male il Te
latin is very hard to pronounce for english speakers, all the words are wrong actually, but I still enjoy it!
@ molti inglesi sbagliano la R e la T, ma in questo caso sbaglia in Te là lettera E Facendo esempio con la pronuncia italiana, Te si pronuncia Te ma la cantante pronuncia TI
What a find! Thank you with all my heart for your beautiful work.
Hauntingly beautiful. 😇 God bless you!
Holy Archangel Michael pray for us and protect us by the power of God against the enemies of our souls.
Beautiful. ✝️💜

I don't usually make comments, but after listening to all your videos, I feel as though I must. Firstly, I wish to commend you for your bravery in beginning, as you described in your channel's "About" section. Secondly, I commend you for the attractive presentation of your videos, it certainly seems that you put a lot of effort into each one. Thirdly, I commend and thank you for filling this world with beauty through your voice and song, for beauty is the prophet of goodness. Singing such old and Christian songs seems rather countercultural, and for that reason I appreciate you all the more. I'm uncertain what prompted you to sing these songs, but I encourage you to continue singing. Please, don't stop. Keep going. Fill this world with goodness, truth, and beauty. May God bless you in your journeys, Miss Cotton :)
Can't tell you how much your kind words mean to me! Thank you so much for your encouragement, and for taking the time to write all of this, and for listening to my music! God reward you :)
Amazing 🎶❤
Beautiful ❤
Thank you so much for all of your kind words and support, my dear listeners!

Do all the voices who sing on there also get compensated for their work? Asking for a friend
@tamarapschirrer9464 All the voices are me :)
@ Jesus will be the judge.
@@tamarapschirrer9464 amen 🙏
"What Child is This?", "Jesu Dulcis Amor meus" (one of my favourite), "Rorate Caeli". Thank you! God and Virgin bless you! And the volume is a little low for me...
Beautiful voice! Are you Catholic?

Belíssimo canal, hoje o mundo procura tanto o barulho e a insanidade tomou conta, como é bom achar essa água pura e restauradora, que seja muito abençoada essa voz
You accept recommendations? If yes, I would recommend Sancta Nox, Silent Night in latin
Simply angelic. Thank you. Christ is King.

I will pray this week that God uses your incredible talent to touch many hearts, just as it has touched mine, bringing them the same joy it has brought me. Truly amazing ❤
Thank you for sharing this. Your voice and musical talent is wonderful.
Are these chanted by you? I just found your channel and I'm absolutely captivated!
