    I believe future musicologists will recognize Christopher Tin as one of the great contributors to the choral repertoire. He's brought more diversity to the western musical tradition than any other "modern classical" composer I can think of.

    Forgive me for this, but... Christopher Tin is solid GOLD in my book. Thank You Lord for every gift you have given each & every one of us. Bless those who use those gifts to help praise your Holy name. By the way, the choir & orchestra are the diamonds, rubies, emerald and sapphires ... Shine & sparkle 😊

    When I was 17 years old, my high school combined our music programs to perform this piece and till this day it is my favorite symphony and choral piece. It is pure beauty and magic, but also holds so much cultural significance. It was an honor to perform it.

    Absolutely beautiful music, and great translations! I love how Tin took a simple idea (water) and expanded it so much, both in the different forms of water and its significance across cultures and eras.

    • @cheval63sg
      @cheval63sg 7 лет назад +1

      although the works are multilignual, I guess Tin got inspiration from Chinese culture as well. To Chinese, water is the softest and hardest matter in the world, at the same time. Soft because it's shapeless, hard because with time, -- it's' patience --, it can sculture anything on earth.

    I came here to put this on as background music and then ended up being fascinated by the lyrics, making a cup of mint tea, and putting everything else off to watch this from start to end. I thought I loved this album but it never hit me like this.
    The only thing I wonder about is whether the translation of Passou o Verão is better than the one in the booklet - seems awkward at times but then they both do. In any case I won't pretend I wasn't as teary-eyed as the violinist at 29:08.
    Incidentally, interesting how the the melodic line at 35:05 is briefly similar to the ocean theme in "Peasants at Sea" (Kristina från Duvemåla, Benny Andersson & Bjorn Ulvæus). Same music inspired by the ocean.

    @EduNauta95 9 лет назад +43

    Impressive translation work! The studio album is technically quite better, but the group here puts *a lot* of emotion in the music, specially the soloists, so maybe it balances out.

    • @ErktheEngineer
      @ErktheEngineer 9 лет назад +2

      Aeduh I agree that the studio version is technically better overall, but are the soloists even different? They sound really similar, and the techniques they employ seem to be pretty specialized (although I'm no expert by any means).

    • @EduNauta95
      @EduNauta95 9 лет назад +7

      Erik Kariniemi I think that the soloist try very hard to mimic the tone of the studio version and did a great job trying as well to sing in the language with the proper accent. In the song in Portuguese, for example, the singer mimics the brazilian accent very well, although many of the words she says actually don't exist, she doesn't say the text well xD

    • @EduNauta95
      @EduNauta95 9 лет назад +1

      Aeduh In 21:25 I think the singer misses the note, though, doing a Fa instead of Mi. I played the flute simultaneously and it sounds about right. Plus, when you hear it something wrong goes off.

    • @ErktheEngineer
      @ErktheEngineer 9 лет назад +1

      Aeduh Yeah that was kind of painful. That happens often in opera as well, and I'm not sure why. It's almost like they get caught on the wrong side of the vibrato for a bit.

    • @CelticBotansDigitalArt
      @CelticBotansDigitalArt 9 лет назад +4

      Aeduh I think she is mimicing the Portuguese-Portugal accent, since in the original album the singer (Dulce Pontes) Is Portuguese - but yeah, haha, some of the words she sings are prononced wrong indeed xD She hasa gorgeous voice/interpretation though, I think that kinda balances with the mistakes

  • @fernandocesarcapovilla498
    @fernandocesarcapovilla498 3 года назад +25

    Christopher Tin is a true genius. His music is outstanding. I love everything he has composed. Therefore, I am not terribly happy to say what I have to say. As a native speaker of the Portuguese language, I have to say that soloist Kat Green is unfortunately not speaking good Portuguese at all. Despite a high dosage of peaceful and gentle good will, one can hardly understand what she utters. Whatever that is, it is most certainly, not good Camões Portuguese at all. The text is not written in good Camões Portuguese either. There are several huge translation flaws. For instance: At 22:40, the phrase "Passou o verão" is translated as "Summer has gone" on the top of the screen; and as "summer has come" on the bottom of the screen. The translator could not be certain which one of the alternatives was right. There may be only one correct alternative, and that is the top one. The bottom one ("summer has come" ) has to go. At 24:49: "Estio" means dry weather, aridity, drought, but not at all "glow". At 24:58: "Humas" means "some". It does not mean "Human", at all. At 26:43 the translation is, once again, simply wrong. And the list goes on and on. The same can be said about the singer's pronunciation. At 25:57, for instance, her pronunciation omits a word that is written and introduces some strange word that is not written at all, so that her speech is rendered meaningless. She is also unable to pronounce nasal sounds. Thus words such as "opiniões" are completely mispronounced. Furthermore, her acting was, for the most part, overacting. What needed to be dramatically stressed was not. Everything else was unnecessarily and artificially stressed. And as a whole, the end result was quite poor, totally different from the rest of the album, which is a masterpiece. It would have been nice if real native-speaking Portuguese people could have been invited to give a hand, with both, the translation and the singing. That is quite understandable because foreigners frequently do poorly at spelling and/or singing a foreign language. Both their spelling and pronunciation are usually not as perfect as those produced by native speakers. That is, quite probably, also my case as a foreign speaker, because English is my third language. In any event, that is certainly the case with both the translator and the singer. They could use some help with their Portuguese spelling and pronunciation as well. That is the only flaw I have noticed in the entire album, which is, as I have said, a masterpiece, because perfectionist Christopher Tin is, as I have said, a remarkable true genius. Christopher Tin has declared repeatedly just how important feedback like this is for an artist like him. I do hope my humble but sincere remarks can help him remember to invite native Portuguese-speaking reviewers, so as to reach new heights of perfection in the future for the divine auditory and visual pleasure of a large share of the world population who loves him dearly. Thank you.

    • @giosialu
      @giosialu  9 лет назад +4

      notdreadyet I could think about it; in the meanwhile, the "share" function with "start at" is surely a good solution :)

    • @notdreadyet
      @notdreadyet 9 лет назад +2

      giosialu Alessandro, again, I so appreciate your work on this. The problem with using share and "start at" is that many people will think that's too much work and won't listen. Folks, especially kids, want to be able to put RUclips videos on their playlist, but they won't do that with an hour-long video, and so your video is missed by a lot of its audience. Plus, you lose the chance of having comments and play counts on each song. Is it difficult, technically? It seems like you have already done all of the heavy lifting.

    • @notdreadyet
      @notdreadyet 9 лет назад +1

      notdreadyet Plus, a 4 minute video has a much bigger chance of going "viral" than an hour video, don't you think? It's much easier to say, "Watch this amazing four minutes!" than "Take an hour out of your day." I sang in this performance and love your addition to it.

    • @giosialu

    Bad choice for the portuguese singer.
    I can't understand a word she sings in my own language without reading the subtitles...
    I wonder if the other languages are like this =/
