This is probably the best version of Exsultet that is available in internet. Ideal pronunciation, musical perfection and absolutely no manner or artificiality, which plagues lot of those who try to make singing of Exsultet a musical performance. Chapeau bas, father Erik Varden!
I agree wholeheartedly that it ought not be a performance, but this doesn't mean that it needs to be affectively flat. He is, after all, singing "Rejoice!" In the end, I believe the difference hinges on whether the cantor's soul is genuinely oriented toward proclaiming the paschal mystery or, by contrast, is focused on himself... on how he is coming across to others as a performer. (Is he singing as subject, or is he an object... looking at himself through the eyes of others)? In that ineffable way that we all have of reading other people, these subtle interior movements are perceptible by the congregation. If the deacon is not genuinely proclaiming to the Church (before the Sursum Corda) and then praying to God (after) - and, by doing so, leading the congregation in exultation and prayer - it is nothing but empty ritual.
P.S. I appreciate very much this particular rendering of the Exsultet, which I agree is musically excellent. He has a very beautiful voice, and he is not calling attention to himself. Having said that, I am not sure that it fully proclaims Easter to me (see above).
This strikes me as a sad comment, surely not reflective of the depth of soul who wrote it. Pepe: I invite you to ask: Is he baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit? If so, isn't he embedded in the body of Christ by virtue of his baptism? Isn't he then your brother in Christ? What is the Church if not Christ's mystical body... made of all who are baptized in the name of our triune God? But perhaps that's too abstract, as it speaks of the invisible/mystical realm. Let me make it more concrete. Here on earth: What is the Church if not "a gathering of human beings who pray, fast, repent, implore grace, wage the spiritual battle, fight so that the spirit of Jesus Christ triumphs in them"? Those words were written by Yves Congar, O.P., who was made Cardinal by St. John Paul II. In short: this man is a member of the body of Christ, and your brother.
This is the most beautiful interpretation i´ve ever heard. Our Lord deserves all the best of the best. I hope i could sing it somewhere near to this one day

As an information to the others, The Right Reverend Dom Erik Varden O.C.S.O. is now serving as bishop-prelate of Trondheim, Norway. Let us pray for him.
@evviva trump I have met Erik several times, he is now the bishop of Trondheim. While I appreciate that he is wearing the vestments of a deacon, he is now a bishop, and has been an abbot for years. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Varden
What a beautiful Hymn displaying our Salvation!!! Thank you my Lord. Thank you Father for proclaiming the history of our Salvation with your God given wonderful voice. I make a point to hear it during the Easter Octave.
I go to the Easter Vigil every year if I can, U.S. Army requirements permitting. Easter Vigil and Christmas Eve/Day are the two days I'll wear my Dress Blues to church. I've not missed an Easter Vigil for over five years and I hope to keep that up. Part of my going is to hear this spoken/sung.
@@respectablebogan3276, it's the same for me. Luckily there's plenty of live-streamed services being broadcast on RUclips and other places. I know it doesn't make up for actually going, but it's what we have for now. So far I've been following Sunday Mass on a channel on RUclips by Bishop Robert Barron. His homilies have been very insightful and got me to think about John's Gospel in particular in a new way.
Kinda wish I'd had mine for this, because I was there, on leave from Afghanistan, with my cousin, who is a Benedictine who knows Bp. Varden. We threw rode the bus together back to the monastery after.
On this day, the fourth of October, the Eighteenth Sunday After Pentecost, id est the Twenty-Seventh Sunday of Ordinary time, in the Two-Thousand-and-Twentieth year of our Lord Jesus Christ, His Excellency Bishop Erik Varden was enthroned at Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim. He is the first catholic bishop to sit on the throne since the protestant reformation. AXIOS
Upon You Shall My Church Be Built, And The Gates Of Hell Shall Not Prevail Against Her. This Is Just The Best And The Most Melodious Exultet I Have Ever Listened To. May God Bless The Singer.
Se siente el espíritu de amor de nuestro señor Jesus. Sientes como se invade el corazón con una fuera maravillosa que te hace sentirte lleno de gozo! y.y.y vez a las personas diferentes! Alegres! Felices!
Wow... So Beautiful Echoing across the ages sweet to my soul. Oh Jesus how Good n how Great You are, how Awesome n how Merciful God You are, Dear Jesus please teach us to Praise n Love you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤... 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤my Jesus mercy Thanks a million for sharing
Exult, let them exult, the hosts of heaven, exult, let Angel ministers of God exult, let the trumpet of salvation sound aloud our mighty King's triumph! Be glad, let earth be glad, as glory floods her, ablaze with light from her eternal King, let all corners of the earth be glad, knowing an end to gloom and darkness. Rejoice, let Mother Church also rejoice, arrayed with the lightning of his glory, let this holy building shake with joy, filled with the mighty voices of the peoples. (Therefore, dearest friends, standing in the awesome glory of this holy light, invoke with me, I ask you, the mercy of God almighty, that he, who has been pleased to number me, though unworthy, among the Levites, may pour into me his light unshadowed, that I may sing this candle's perfect praises). (Deacon: The Lord be with you. People: And with your spirit.) Deacon: Lift up your hearts. People: We lift them up to the Lord. Deacon: Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. People: It is right and just. It is truly right and just, with ardent love of mind and heart and with devoted service of our voice, to acclaim our God invisible, the almighty Father, and Jesus Christ, our Lord, his Son, his Only Begotten. Who for our sake paid Adam's debt to the eternal Father, and, pouring out his own dear Blood, wiped clean the record of our ancient sinfulness. These, then, are the feasts of Passover, in which is slain the Lamb, the one true Lamb, whose Blood anoints the doorposts of believers. This is the night, when once you led our forebears, Israel's children, from slavery in Egypt and made them pass dry-shod through the Red Sea. This is the night that with a pillar of fire banished the darkness of sin. This is the night that even now throughout the world, sets Christian believers apart from worldly vices and from the gloom of sin, leading them to grace and joining them to his holy ones. This is the night when Christ broke the prison-bars of death and rose victorious from the underworld. Our birth would have been no gain, had we not been redeemed. O wonder of your humble care for us! O love, O charity beyond all telling, to ransom a slave you gave away your Son! O truly necessary sin of Adam, destroyed completely by the Death of Christ! O happy fault that earned for us so great, so glorious a Redeemer! O truly blessed night, worthy alone to know the time and hour when Christ rose from the underworld! This is the night of which it is written: The night shall be as bright as day, dazzling is the night for me, and full of gladness. The sanctifying power of this night dispels wickedness, washes faults away, restores innocence to the fallen, and joy to mourners, drives out hatred, fosters concord, and brings down the mighty. On this, your night of grace, O holy Father, accept this candle, a solemn offering, the work of bees and of your servants' hands, an evening sacrifice of praise, this gift from your most holy Church. But now we know the praises of this pillar, which glowing fire ignites for God's honour, a fire into many flames divided, yet never dimmed by sharing of its light, for it is fed by melting wax, drawn out by mother bees to build a torch so precious. O truly blessed night, when things of heaven are wed to those of earth, and divine to the human. Therefore, O Lord, we pray you that this candle, hallowed to the honour of your name, may persevere undimmed, to overcome the darkness of this night. Receive it as a pleasing fragrance, and let it mingle with the lights of heaven. May this flame be found still burning by the Morning Star: the one Morning Star who never sets, Christ your Son, who, coming back from death's domain, has shed his peaceful light on humanity, and lives and reigns for ever and ever. Amen.

Nesta noite de graça, aceitai, Pai santo Este sacrifício vespertino de louvor Que, na solene oblação deste círio Pelas mãos dos seus ministros Vós apresenta a santa Igreja Agora conhecemos o sinal glorioso desta coluna de cera Que uma chama de fogo acende em honra de Deus Esta chama que, ao repartir o seu esplendor Não diminui a sua luz Esta chama que se alimenta de cera Produzida pelo trabalho das abelhas Para formar este precioso luzeiro Nós Vos pedimos, Senhor Que este círio, consagrado ao vosso nome Para dissipar as trevas da noite Arda incessantemente E, subindo para Vós como suave perfume Junte a sua claridade à das estrelas do céu Que ele brilhe ainda quando se levantar o astro da manhã Aquele astro que não tem ocaso Jesus Cristo, vosso Filho Que, ressuscitando de entre os mortos, iluminou o gênero humano com a sua luz e a sua paz E vive glorioso pelos séculos dos séculos R / Amém

I have had a longing in my heart for several years now to learn Gregorian Chant....but I don't have a clue about where to get a proper education. God guide me.
Why would anyone leave this wonderfully powerful Language behind? I know not many people understand Latin, but its more powerful in that Language than the rather boring Vernacular
With the internet and numerous resources, there's no reason why we can't understand and pray basic prayers in Latin and eventually learn the Exsultet. Intellectual laziness has become a norm.
Start with basic prayers and Mass responses and it's amazing how soon the language begins to open itself up. So many English words have Latin roots, that you begin to quickly recognize other words. A side by side, English-Latin missal is very helpful.
Let every person who calls himself Catholic endeavour to attend at least the Easter Vigil a couple of times in his lifetime and meditate on this experience.
I'm thinking at christians of the others centuries: they had not microphone. How could they speak and sing so softly in St.Peter's Basilica in Rome and be heard? I think that these chants were thinked to sound in a very different way.
If necessary, a priest can serve as a deacon (and remember that he was ordained a deacon before receiving priesthood). In which case, he wears the dalmatic and the deacon's stole.
This is probably the best version of Exsultet that is available in internet. Ideal pronunciation, musical perfection and absolutely no manner or artificiality, which plagues lot of those who try to make singing of Exsultet a musical performance.

Can you, please, help me find the Gregoriant score notations for this song ?
Just Beautiful....Christ is Risen....He is Truly Risen!
By far, the most melodic and well-executed version of the Exultet I've ever heard.
Here's another very well done one:
Better? God knows.
ruclips.net/video/LA3tl7tj9R8/видео.html
Erik Varden (who sings this) is the new bishop of Trondhiem
I presume that this was made before he was installed as bishop. He was also a monk at Mount Saint Bernard’s in Leicestershire.
@evviva trump the video is 9 years old
@evviva trump I have met Erik several times, he is now the bishop of Trondheim. While I appreciate that he is wearing the vestments of a deacon, he is now a bishop, and has been an abbot for years. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erik_Varden
@evviva trump All Bishops have been deacons ones. 😉
What a beautiful Hymn displaying our Salvation!!! Thank you my Lord. Thank you Father for proclaiming the history of our Salvation with your God given wonderful voice. I make a point to hear it during the Easter Octave.
Happy Easter. Christ is risen. Hallelujah.
He Is Risen!
Church needs people like him...!
Almost everytime I hear the Exsultet I have to cry. It's beautiful. It has everything we need to know.
I go to the Easter Vigil every year if I can, U.S. Army requirements permitting. Easter Vigil and Christmas Eve/Day are the two days I'll wear my Dress Blues to church. I've not missed an Easter Vigil for over five years and I hope to keep that up. Part of my going is to hear this spoken/sung.
this year is the first year I've missed the Easter Vigil in 21 years. Sad day
@@respectablebogan3276, it's the same for me. Luckily there's plenty of live-streamed services being broadcast on RUclips and other places. I know it doesn't make up for actually going, but it's what we have for now. So far I've been following Sunday Mass on a channel on RUclips by Bishop Robert Barron. His homilies have been very insightful and got me to think about John's Gospel in particular in a new way.
Kinda wish I'd had mine for this, because I was there, on leave from Afghanistan, with my cousin, who is a Benedictine who knows Bp. Varden. We threw rode the bus together back to the monastery after.
The Best Exultet that i've ever heard... 😇😇😇
This man was consecrated bishop of Trondheim (in Norway) just a few days ago.
Granland! splendid!
Wow!!!! He looks like a Bishop even here.
On this day, the fourth of October, the Eighteenth Sunday After Pentecost, id est the Twenty-Seventh Sunday of Ordinary time, in the Two-Thousand-and-Twentieth year of our Lord Jesus Christ, His Excellency Bishop Erik Varden was enthroned at Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim. He is the first catholic bishop to sit on the throne since the protestant reformation.

Upon You Shall My Church Be Built, And The Gates Of Hell Shall Not Prevail Against Her. This Is Just The Best And The Most Melodious Exultet I Have Ever Listened To. May God Bless The Singer.
Se siente el espíritu de amor de nuestro señor Jesus. Sientes como se invade el corazón con una fuera maravillosa que te hace sentirte lleno de gozo! y.y.y vez a las personas diferentes! Alegres! Felices!
Wow... So Beautiful Echoing across the ages sweet to my soul. Oh Jesus how Good n how Great You are, how Awesome n how Merciful God You are, Dear Jesus please teach us to Praise n Love you❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤... 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤❤my Jesus mercy
Thanks a million for sharing
Exult, let them exult, the hosts of heaven,
exult, let Angel ministers of God exult,
let the trumpet of salvation
sound aloud our mighty King's triumph!
Be glad, let earth be glad, as glory floods her,
ablaze with light from her eternal King,
let all corners of the earth be glad,
knowing an end to gloom and darkness.
Rejoice, let Mother Church also rejoice,
arrayed with the lightning of his glory,
let this holy building shake with joy,
filled with the mighty voices of the peoples.
(Therefore, dearest friends,
standing in the awesome glory of this holy light,
invoke with me, I ask you,
the mercy of God almighty,
that he, who has been pleased to number me,
though unworthy, among the Levites,
may pour into me his light unshadowed,
that I may sing this candle's perfect praises).
(Deacon: The Lord be with you.
People: And with your spirit.)
Deacon: Lift up your hearts.
People: We lift them up to the Lord.
Deacon: Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
People: It is right and just.
It is truly right and just,
with ardent love of mind and heart
and with devoted service of our voice,
to acclaim our God invisible, the almighty Father,
and Jesus Christ, our Lord, his Son, his Only Begotten.
Who for our sake paid Adam's debt to the eternal Father,
and, pouring out his own dear Blood,
wiped clean the record of our ancient sinfulness.
These, then, are the feasts of Passover,
in which is slain the Lamb, the one true Lamb,
whose Blood anoints the doorposts of believers.
This is the night,
when once you led our forebears, Israel's children,
from slavery in Egypt
and made them pass dry-shod through the Red Sea.
This is the night
that with a pillar of fire
banished the darkness of sin.
This is the night
that even now throughout the world,
sets Christian believers apart from worldly vices
and from the gloom of sin,
leading them to grace
and joining them to his holy ones.
This is the night
when Christ broke the prison-bars of death
and rose victorious from the underworld.
Our birth would have been no gain,
had we not been redeemed.
O wonder of your humble care for us!
O love, O charity beyond all telling,
to ransom a slave you gave away your Son!
O truly necessary sin of Adam,
destroyed completely by the Death of Christ!
O happy fault
that earned for us so great, so glorious a Redeemer!
O truly blessed night,
worthy alone to know the time and hour
when Christ rose from the underworld!
This is the night
of which it is written:
The night shall be as bright as day,
dazzling is the night for me, and full of gladness.
The sanctifying power of this night
dispels wickedness, washes faults away,
restores innocence to the fallen, and joy to mourners,
drives out hatred, fosters concord, and brings down the mighty.
On this, your night of grace, O holy Father,
accept this candle, a solemn offering,
the work of bees and of your servants' hands,
an evening sacrifice of praise,
this gift from your most holy Church.
But now we know the praises of this pillar,
which glowing fire ignites for God's honour,
a fire into many flames divided,
yet never dimmed by sharing of its light,
for it is fed by melting wax,
drawn out by mother bees
to build a torch so precious.
O truly blessed night,
when things of heaven are wed to those of earth,
and divine to the human.
Therefore, O Lord,
we pray you that this candle,
hallowed to the honour of your name,
may persevere undimmed,
to overcome the darkness of this night.
Receive it as a pleasing fragrance,
and let it mingle with the lights of heaven.
May this flame be found still burning
by the Morning Star:
the one Morning Star who never sets,
Christ your Son,
who, coming back from death's domain,
has shed his peaceful light on humanity,
and lives and reigns for ever and ever.
Amen.
Happy Easter 2023🙏🙏
Amazingly perfect.

Exulte de alegria a multidão dos Anjos
Exultem as assembleias celestes
Ressoem hinos de glória para anunciar o triunfo de tão grande Rei
Rejubile também a terra, inundada por tão grande claridade
Porque a luz de Cristo, o Rei eterno
Dissipa as trevas de todo o mundo
Alegre-se a Igreja, nossa mãe
Adornada com os fulgores de tão grande luz
E ressoem neste templo as aclamações do povo de Deus
E vós, irmãos caríssimos
Aqui reunidos para celebrar o esplendor admirável desta luz
Invocai comigo
A misericórdia de Deus onipotente
Para que, tendo-Se Ele dignado, sem mérito algum da minha parte
Admitir-me no número dos seus ministros
Infunda em mim a claridade da sua luz
Para que possa celebrar dignamente os louvores deste círio
V. Dominus vobiscum
R. Et cum spiritu tuo
V. Sursum corda
R. Habemus ad Dominum
V. Gratias agamus Domino Deo nostro
R. Dignum et iustum est
É verdadeiramente nosso dever, é nossa salvação
Proclamar os louvores de Deus invisível, Pai omnipotente
E do seu Filho Unigénito
Jesus Cristo, nosso Senhor
Com todo o fervor da alma e toda a nossa voz
Ele pagou por nós ao eterno Pai a dívida por Adão contraída
E com seu Sangue precioso apagou a condenação do antigo pecado
Celebramos hoje as festas da Páscoa
Em que é imolado o verdadeiro Cordeiro
Cujo Sangue consagra as portas dos fiéis
Esta é a noite
Em que libertastes do cativeiro do Egito
Os filhos de Israel, nossos pais
E os fizestes atravessar a pé enxuto o Mar Vermelho
Esta é a noite
Em que a coluna de fogo dissipou as trevas do pecado
Esta é a noite
Que liberta aqueles que hoje por toda a terra creem em Cristo
Das trevas do pecado e da corrupção do mundo
Noite que os restitui à graça e os reúne na comunhão dos Santos
Esta é a noite
Em que Cristo, quebrando as cadeias da morte
Se levanta glorioso do túmulo
De nada nos serviria ter nascido
Se não tivéssemos sido resgatados
Oh, admirável condescendência da vossa graça!
Oh, incomparável predileção do vosso amor!
Para resgatar o escravo entregastes o Filho
Oh, necessário pecado de Adão
Que foi destruído pela morte de Cristo!
Oh, ditosa culpa
Que nos mereceu tão grande Redentor!
Oh noite bendita
Única a ter conhecimento do tempo e da hora
Em que Cristo ressuscitou do sepulcro!
Esta é a noite, da qual está escrito
A noite brilha como o dia
E a escuridão é clara como a luz
Esta noite santa afugenta os crimes, lava as culpas
Restitui a inocência aos pecadores
Dá alegria aos tristes
Derruba os poderosos, dissipa os ódios
Estabelece a concórdia e a paz
Oh, noite ditosa
Em que o céu se une à terra, em que o homem se encontra com Deus!
Nesta noite de graça, aceitai, Pai santo
Este sacrifício vespertino de louvor
Que, na solene oblação deste círio
Pelas mãos dos seus ministros
Vós apresenta a santa Igreja
Agora conhecemos o sinal glorioso desta coluna de cera
Que uma chama de fogo acende em honra de Deus
Esta chama que, ao repartir o seu esplendor
Não diminui a sua luz
Esta chama que se alimenta de cera
Produzida pelo trabalho das abelhas
Para formar este precioso luzeiro
Nós Vos pedimos, Senhor
Que este círio, consagrado ao vosso nome
Para dissipar as trevas da noite
Arda incessantemente
E, subindo para Vós como suave perfume
Junte a sua claridade à das estrelas do céu
Que ele brilhe ainda quando se levantar o astro da manhã
Aquele astro que não tem ocaso
Jesus Cristo, vosso Filho
Que, ressuscitando de entre os mortos, iluminou o gênero humano com a sua luz e a sua paz
E vive glorioso pelos séculos dos séculos

Nasz nowy biskup w Trondheim piękny glos
Exquisite. How can anyone believe that this is a chant to the devil? Jelous devil will do whatever he can to make people think so. Nobody can create such a heavenly materpiece to worship devil. He must try to steal it from those truly inspired and touched by God.
Amazing!
lm proud to be a Catholic I lily like to knwo Latin language but in don't have palace to learn
Adamrafiki mwambuluma I'm sure you could find free resources online to learn it!
I went to a catholic school and we used the Cambridge Latin books, you can find it for free online.

I have had a longing in my heart for several years now to learn Gregorian Chant....but I don't have a clue about where to get a proper education. God guide me.
Is it just me or papal liturgy was simply better in old BXVI times?
There is no doubt about that.

Why would anyone leave this wonderfully powerful Language behind?
I know not many people understand Latin, but its more powerful in that Language than the rather boring Vernacular
With the internet and numerous resources, there's no reason why we can't understand and pray basic prayers in Latin and eventually learn the Exsultet. Intellectual laziness has become a norm.
Exactly, its more meaningful now than before
Start with basic prayers and Mass responses and it's amazing how soon the language begins to open itself up. So many English words have Latin roots, that you begin to quickly recognize other words. A side by side, English-Latin missal is very helpful.
Krisztus világossága ragyogja be mindannyiunk életét.
Istennek legyen hála!
Pater noster tibit gratias ago Deo at vitan et salutem. Dei viventis in sæcula in sæculorum.

Catholic must unite and bring back Latin mass .

I'm thinking at christians of the others centuries: they had not microphone.
How could they speak and sing so softly in St.Peter's Basilica in Rome and be heard? I think that these chants were thinked to sound in a very different way.
they sung with full voice, true, very different from what we hear today. But singing practice in western seminaries has almost dissapeared.

if he is a priest why is he vested in a deacon's dalmatic?
If necessary, a priest can serve as a deacon (and remember that he was ordained a deacon before receiving priesthood). In which case, he wears the dalmatic and the deacon's stole.
