Play this back at .75 speed and it comes closer to the correct tempo. It's a tad slow at that speed, but it's better than the hurried tempo of the original. This piece should be "buoyant and lilting"... to use the words from Howard Goodall, when I corresponded with him directly as I was preparing to sing the treble solo for the very first time for my mother's Memorial Mass when she passed away. While the choir here has lovely tone, and the soloist has a very nice, clear voice-- the pace is disturbingly fast. Please, slow it down a bit. The tempo as written is "half note=40". This is closer to 55 or 60 to my ear anyhow.
What's their hurry? This is such a Heavenly piece. Please slow it down a bit! :)
I don't know where they're from, but this is a very fine chorus!!! Just LOVELY!
Beautiful.

Very very nice.
yea though i run through the valley of the shadow of death
They were definitely running through the valley of the shadow of death rather than walking😂
So fast..... maybe there was a sale somewhere.....
Sounds like The Beatles' With a Little Help from my Friends to me :(
whoa, calm down. why rushing
Too fast, were you trying to get away early?
Haha, it's not that hurried, folks. All I feel was lacking here was a full swelling roundedness of choral tone
Rubbish sound on the video. Well filmed, but why not mic it up??
The tempo is definitely an aberration, almost completely destroys the whole essence
What a sprint! Makes me feel winded and out of breath just listening to it. What a waste of a good choir. Sad.
Tooooo fastttt
