Latin:
Dum transisset Sabbatum,
Maria Magdalene et Maria Jacobi et Salome

Alleluia.
Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto.
Alleluia.
English:
And when the Sabbath was past,
Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of James and Salome
had brought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.
Alleluia.
And very early in the morning, the first day of the week,
they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun that they might come and anoint him.
Alleluia.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Alleluia.
I've known this since I was a teenager: if there is any music more beautiful I have yet to hear it. The melisma on "aromata" is heavenly.
And the sopranos' descending arpeggio at 1:45 😍
This is my 15th great grandfather.. odd I've always been made fun of growing up for enjoying something so beautiful. So.. thanks grandpa.
Are you serious, you're a descendent of Taverner?
Sure am thanks to ancestry. I found out couple weeks ago. Traced my tree back to the early 1500s. Pretty cool stuff
@@alanworstell7930 Wow, I'm very jealous. What a blessing!
You’re descended from John Taverner?! Wow! As a lifelong church musician, I’ve sung and/or conducted nearly all of his sacred music-we consider him one of the greatest composers who ever lived. On Easter this year, we will sing this sublime Dum Transisset Sabbatum once again. What a great blessing.
Voilà une musique admirable !
This is one of the pieces that introduced me, very belatedly, to the glorious music of that golden age of English music. I was left stunned when I first heard this.The beauty of it was overwhelming. It has been some years since I last heard it and it still has the same effect on me. What an extraordinary flowering of talent there was in the Tudor period..
This work is a jewel; translucent, flowing and expressive in it's broad arch lines, imitations and sequences.
....no words.....
Sublimely beautiful piece of music.
Heavenly beautiful...
I have heard this piece by Taverner so many times but it is the Tallis Scholars who seem to convey the full majesty of this magnificent work. The lovely video adds so much to this as well. Thank you.
Awesome! Would love to listen to more music like this. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful very moving'lifts ones soul to heavenly thourghts
5 Stars! This is truly beautiful...
Sublime!
Really wonderful!
Besides the pitch undergoing a little flattening, the soprano and tenor openings are sooooo uplifting!
I liked the bit with the gorgeous polyphony and beautiful singing.
I'm singing this for the Easter Vigil :)

And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
Video and music well matched.
Thank you. It's so nice !
Yeah, the go flat, but it's almost inevitable with this piece unless you've at least eight musicians or more who have perfect pitch, have gotten enough sleep and exercise that day, take no caffeine AT ALL, and who are willing to work together on ONE piece to perfection. Those conditions are rare. This is a good example of this piece. I dunno about the stuck-together parts. I guess I'll listen again, but I just sang this, and it sounds as one part to me.
Thanks so much! What a perfect answer and fantastic tie in with the Dum Transisett text (Mark 16:1). Looking at more Friedrich paintings now... and they do share many themes that drew me into this picture. Can't wait to explore more of his work.
I just found this video, and saw your question. I am almost positive the artist is Caspar David Friedrich, a German artist from the 1800s who painted grand landscapes, and any figures he paints are always looking away from the viewer into the landscape itself. You'd probably recognize several of his paintings if you google him. Not sure of the title, but I would bet it is Friedrich.
Aromata, aromata!!
Got curious, and found it. It's called "Easter Morning", and it is by Friedrich.
Does anyone know what the first picture of the video is called, if it's famous, etc.?
The painting --Who is the a
rtist?
Why does "unlike" come up when I go on thumbs up sign(like)
Are you doing it from below the equator?
To give you the option of "unliking" it once you have "liked" it I would say...
+Joe Harrington in case you change your mind.
Who are you, again?

Terrible. Sinks in pitch within the first few seconds. Pretty bad for a band known to record in seven-second bits all stuck together.
Wow! What a terrible thing to be tone deaf and miss the beauty surrounding you.
I’ll bet you sing in a way better choir
