Conductor: Gavin David Lee
this is too good for us filthy mortals
But what is on the level above this? And the level above that? And the level above that? And keep going? We know nothing.
Agreed. A mere and filthy mortal, I am.
This is excellent both the song and the Icelandic.
Glæsilegt og magnað að þetta 800 ára gamla Íslenska kórlag skuli vera flutt svona fallega af frændum okkar Norðmönnum :)
+baldving86 textinn er 800 ára gamall en lagið er 20. aldar tónsmíð eftir Þorkel Sigurbjörnsson
I think this performance was absolutely excellent! The missing high soprano and low bass contrast was made up for in the Crescendo 10 fold. I would encourage the ensemble to train up higher tennors and sopranos to help expand on the vocal choir range to help cement this throughout the song. Regardless of my criticism this really and truly was beautiful! thank you for posting it and I hope to see more performances by this clearly very talented group.
I would love to hear a version where the conductor was super chilled out and slow, with big pauses between the phrases. And performed in a massive palatial cave.
A call to the smith of the heavens. I find it so beautiful.
I know this hymn dates back ages, but it seems to only of gotten the spotlight after Árstíðir started doing it.
I'm crying with joy right now. Thank you.
Frábært :) Veldig kraftigt, hilsen fra en islandsk som er overrasket over hvor bra islandsk dette var :)
A very fine song, similar to "Veni redemptor gentium" by Ambrosius and "Nun komm der Heiden Heiland" by Luther. TSS, jeg er veldig imponert over hvor herlig dere synger! Lykke til videre!!
This is absolutely beautiful, well done. I can listen to this all day. Greetings from Iceland :)
very nice. the best harmony and balance i have ever heard singing this hymn. the english translation of the lyrics is so beautiful. nice rendition.
Just constant chills from 1:54 to end!
da er veldig bra norge mange takk fra island !!!!!
The conductor is doing a great job. Too bad we can't see all of it... Conductors aren't given the credits they deserve because most people just see a person waving its arms. From the musicians' perspective it's completely different.
Great performance.
Usłysz, kowalu niebios,
o co prosi Cię poeta. Niech Twa łaska przyjdzie do mnie łagodnie.
Wzywam Cię, bo mnie stworzyłeś. Jestem Twym niewolnikiem, a Ty moim Panem.
Boże, wzywam Cię, byś mnie uzdrowił. Pamiętaj o mnie, łagodny.
Potrzebujemy Cię najbardziej. Odpędź, o Królu słońc, Szczodry
i wspaniały, każdy ludzki smutek z miasta serca.
Czuwaj nade mną,
o łagodny. Prawdziwie potrzebujemy Cię w każdej chwili w świecie
ludzi. Poślij nam, Synu dziewicy, dobre sprawy. Cała pomoc jest od Ciebie,
w moim sercu.
It's a wonderful work and a good performance. Down a tone, and 10% slower, would be more to my taste--but that's *only* my taste. To the language critics, try learning Icelandic before knocking the Norwegians' efforts. And go visit Iceland--you'll see the whole world there.
excellent
these guys are not icelandic just wanted to clear that up ( i can hear by their accents)
it says right there its a choir from trondhejm....
De Norske.
Good performance 👍
Brilliant!
Det er deiligste J hørt. Foran Gud.
What is this type of music and where can I find more similar to it?
The genre is "Hymn"
if you want to hear more you should look up ancient hymns including ancient catholic hymns, roman hymns, and other historical hymns
Thank you so much!
Nice... but Icelandic sounds a little bit strange in their mouths... Anyway I like it !
Ok. Tæknilega séð þá var textinn saminn ~1200. Og þá hljómaði tungumálið sem um ræðir allt öðruvísi en nútíma íslenska. Upprunalegaur framburður er sem sagt meira en "little bit strange". ;)
Þetta er að mínu mati ein flottasta útgáfa þessa söngs sem ég hef heyrt. Bravó! :)
The sound of the journey to Valhalla.
+Gen Speaking Ironic because it's literally a Christian hymn.
+Chrome Trooper Yes, one good thing religion has brought us.
+Chrome Trooper Just my interpretation of the music.
Gen Speaking The_Suspect
You both have Carl Sagan avatars! lol
+Chrome Trooper We sure do. Carl Sagan is amazing.
The ending G´s were always silent.... so i heard miiii but not miiiiggg... Still the R was ok :)
+slubert This is called avoiding a glottal because it kills the flow of coral music. It happens in every language, including English.
+celeste vanhouten not in Icelandic choir music sung by icelandic choirs...
Having a black dude sing a viking poem song.
Now that's what i call succesful integration :)
it's not a viking poem song
it's about the ''smith of heavens'', aka God
WowFan991 Written in what year?
yeah it was written in i think 12th-14th century but the music was composed later, in the 18th-19th century
WowFan991 It was in the 12th to 13th century when Iceland just adopted christianity, so you could call it a "christian viking" i guess
1. viking is not a race, it is an occupation. There is no more a race of vikings than there is a race of pirates (albeit the British come close)
2. this song has little to do with said vikings or even the people from that time period.
I like how they put one black guy in there to keep the rythm in
+Jelmer Schmit No man, that's a dark elf.
+Jelmer Schmit if they don't then it will be racism right..
You imbecile
What an absolutely inane observation, you dolt.
Who was replying to whom here?
Nå må alle klessene skjønne det. Å nei.
I see a black guy, a black guy singing in Icelandic. I want to meet him ^-^
Why bring race in to this? Or anything for that matter :)
typical cultural marxist female, just wants "diversity"
blehh nahh Because it's very rare for me to see a Black person singing in or speaking Icelandic. I am equally amazed when I see an Asian or a White person speaking an African language for example, or an African speaking an Asian language, it's not something a see a lot.
On the other hand, it's not as rare seeing a Black or Asian person speaking more common European languages like English or German, or a White person who speaks Chinese. I see that a lot so it's not novel and therefore not unique to me. So I don't point that out :-) Hope that answers your question.
Well, yeah seeing a black person singing in Icelandic is rare... :), still does not make it a
"thing". I would not like to meet this guy because hes black and singing in Icelandic, I would however like to meet him and this awesome choir, indifferent of the skin color :).
Well, people get excited about different things. This is one of them for me.
Good bye 2020, you
annus horribilis!
Nice singing but your Iclandic is so bad :(
They probably have lyrics written only in the norwegian alphabeth, so alot of the Icelandic letter we dont have in norway, they just written it as the sound is and not the letter.
AlexVidal Þetta er nú bara ágætis Íslenska miðað við það að þeir tala hana ekki. Ég hef heyrt mikið verri tilraunir.
***** I should learn Icelandic.
***** Jebb...sammála
this is awesome! (im an icelander) this is a masterpiece from our brothers!
lmao why is there a random black dude ?
emospadez not random, he is part of the choir.
And a hell of a singer as well.
Because there is.
