Sadly I had to give up choral singing back in 2008 and really miss doing it now although I am approaching 80 so no doubt I would have stopped a few years later anyway. This was one of my favourites, I can just about still remember the Bass line as I can with several otherTenebrae recordings.

It’s an endless search for such choral near-perfection, but we seem to have found it. Astonishingly beautiful performance.

Bruckner's motets are the finest of the 19th century, masterpieces of the post baroque and Renaissance styles. Tenebrae really nailed it here.

I only knew Bruckner as a symphony composer until my trombone ensemble played "Os Justi". Gorgeous piece! It turns out that if you score an SATB arrangement down a major third, the soprano part is now in the alto trombone range. More recently, my church choir did "Locus Iste", much to my delight. Our director's opinion is that "Locus Iste" and Mozart's "Ave Verum Corpus" are the two best pieces of music in our choir's repertoire.

One of the premium choirs in the world. Utterly gorgeous. Transcendentally sublime!

MAGNIFIQUE....très trés belle interprètation très nuancé à vous donner envie de pleurer merci au chef

My former director always said a good choir can sing forte, but only a great choir can sing pianissimo. Tenebrae is a great choir.

What a gift--to live long enough, to hear such sound. Thank you. Heaven has touched you.

Having risen from sleep, I offer unto Thee, O Saviour, the midnight hymn, and falling down I cry unto Thee: Grant me not to fall asleep in the death of sin, but have compassion on me, O Thou Who wast voluntarily crucified, and hasten to raise me who am reclining in idleness, and save me in prayer and intercession; and after the night’s sleep shine upon me a sinless day, O Christ God, and save me. Amen.

I was lucky enough to sing this piece when I went to "Our Lady Seat of Wisdom College". But back then it was only an academy. Good memories. Love this song. This choir sings it beautifully.

Yes beatiful to me it feels really as a holy thing a prayer in terms of sound dynamics balance timing every singer sings with that conciossness as an individual but at he same time as one alll together yes very beautiful thank you very much!

First of all, the voices are just beautiful. Ethereally haunting and perfectly complimenting each other. I could listen to you all sing for hours. Secondly, the thing that stood out to me was how well made your videos are. I've seen so many voice choir performances shot with a camcorder or something as a second thought, but your video is as beautiful as the sounds in it. The lighting, tone, colouring, all give it a very professional and deeply curated feel. What's on-screen helps describe the arrangement clearly, like cutting across the room to a soloist sat in the rafters. I think that's an avenue to be explored, music videos for choral music. I believe there's a huge artistic amalgamation here and it's truly beautiful, keep producing masterpieces like this. Can't wait to see what you put out in the future. Best wishes and all the success :)
