Thanks for your comment!

Thanks for your message. We made some changes in the score for our most recent performance of this piece. Our basses were having trouble getting up to an Eb about middle C. So it was decided that we would give the bass voice to the tenor voice for this performance. So this explains why the parts are different. I'll make a note to restore the original videos we made before we made this "executive decision". Incidentally, it worked out REALLY well in the performance having the tenor section sing the bass part.

Thanks for your helpful comments! It's seems that the only way to make the fermatas work on music software is to add in really slow metronome marks. Sometimes I put them in, but in these videos, they are absent. It's also a thinkable thought to just have slower videos for practicing melismatic passages. These videos can be slowed down on RUclips. We're working up a set of videos for the second movement of Chichester Psalms. We'll DEFINITELY made a VERY slow version of the "La Ma Ragashu" section...!

Yes, sometimes the synchronization gets a little off. I've tried everything I know to get them to line up when they're off, but to no avail. Sometimes the problem is with the software program that generates the videos. Sometimes it's with RUclips itself. Fortunately the synchronization is pretty accurate in the majority of the videos. Some people just follow along with their scores when the page and the sound don't line up exactly.

Thanks for this helpful comment. I'll do a global clean up of these errors someday soon, when time allows. Currently time doesn't allow...! But we will get to it!

I'm so glad!

Thanks for your message. When we performed this piece, we made a lot of cuts. The entire work, all 3 movements, lasts over 2 hours and we needed to get under 90 minutes. So that's why there's a huge gap from 8- 31. Hopefully the bit that is up will be helpful. It's a fun piece. We really enjoyed performing it!

Thanks for letting me know. I'll make the correction and update the video.

Glad you enjoy it!

Thanks!

Thanks a lot! Gorgeous piece that doesn't get performed as much as it should. It's difficult. Hopefully this will help get it out into the world more frequently!

Thanks for your lovely message! I believe it's possible also to speed up and slow down the videos on RUclips without changing the pitch. My singers have been using these videos at all stages of learning. They have greatly sped up our rehearsals. We're able to move at a much faster pace since singers are practicing every day instead of just once a week. Please feel free to share, like and subscribe. This will help spread the word. All my best, Paul

Many thanks! Maybe we'll get to perform an English premiere of this new work in the future. Fingers crossed...!

Thanks!

Glad it helped! We created these videos for our choir a number of years ago. It seems a shame to just let them languish on my hard drive...! Feel free to check out the other video playlists posted currently: COMPLETE Bach St. Matthew Passion, COMPLETE Haendel's Messiah, COMPLETE Brahms Requiem with orchestra in the background and many other. Please subscribe if you feel so moved!

We ran a little short on time when preparing these videos. There was a HUGE amount of music and text to input. Hopefully we'll have time to circle back and add a 9 stave version when things calm down a bit during the summer. Delighted that you're finding this video helpful. It made it possible for our choir to learn it. The Bloch is a magnificent work, and VERY challenging. It deserves to be heard and performed much more often.

I'll bet. There are a few things I need to correct. It seems no matter how much you scour the recording, there's always something you miss. If you know where there are mistakes, please let me. Thanks!

@@paulleavitt5466 hello from France I ll try to help according to the score we have. I am alto so I first have a look on that line except for the first correction bar before your number 1 : we have for all voices D instead of C (ré a lieu de Do) bar 53 first G sharp (sol bémol) bar 54 F F instead of E 2 fa au lieu de 2 mi) bar 56 2 quavers G flat (sol dièse) your number 10 : "pp" from the beginning following staff "de" (b) and Fac (G) are linked by a slur (une grande liaison) your bar 140 "pp" starts at F "non" for all starves voilà, c'est ce que j'ai trouvé comme différences avec ma partition ;)) but thank you anyway. some parts are really complicated (your number 13) hard to memorize.

@@virginiemarin2751 Merci beaucoup pour votre message et pour votre aide. Je regarderai la partie alto de plus près. Une des altos dans ma chorale m'a donné une liste de notes à corriger. On va y arriver petit à petit.

Glad I could help! You're very welcome. I'm delighted that these videos are serving members of the immense community of choral singers around the world. Anything that helps people practice is going to make for a much more satisfying performing experience. Keep me posted!

Thanks for your lovely comment. These videos have helped my choruses immensely in learning major choral works in record time. People can now practice at home! I'll correct the error in mm. 159-160. Thanks for pointing that out. So much material to input!
