Sitting alone by the fire with some leisure, I searched for Jehova QM on youtube, and found the excellent version below. The King Consort choir - no wobbles! With instruments too + some of the best TBs in the business!
The Latin isn't quite as we sang it, the main differences, as one would expect, being in the Js, the Gs and the Cs, though from what some said on the other thread, I imagine it will coincide with other foundations.
As a treble I spent most of my time on Can, being moved to Dec (unwillingly and protestingly, not that it did any good!) when I took over as HC. I doubt I sang it on Dec and I have only heard it a couple of times since - and I still find when listening and not singing that the Can line goes through my head. Similarly with a few other TT pieces, even after all this time. Anyone else find the same?
Some great Latin words for the bass solo. Such as "confregisti" - once heard at that pitch, never forgotten. Helped with Latin exam for sure!
Anyway, I hope you enjoy it as much as I have done. I think it's one of HP's greatest anthems.
bws S-S!
[Edit: for comparison, here's Chester Nave Choir making a very creditable job of it too, this time with organ and pronunciation more in line with what I'd have expected. They also don't change to major at the end.]
