Say it fast 3 times!!!

But seriously...

Found this when I was looking for ideas for my Advent 4 prelude/postlude arrangements for this Sunday...

And now for the real thing! ...

Allegri - Misereri Mei

This is my favorite acapella. I've used it a few times. I use the setting from the 1905 Anglican Psalter... tune by George Talbot -- . -- Psalm 150. Very powerful. Exquisite presentationin the video (IMHO)

CUED TO START AT 00:32

Praise God · in his | holiness :
Praise him... in the firma•ment of his power.

Praise him in his noble acts :
praise him according • to his | excel·lent | greatness.

Praise him in the sound of the trumpet :
praise him upon the | lute and | harp.

Praise him in the cymbals • and dances :
praise him up on the strings and | pipe.

Praise him upon the well-tuned | cymbals :
praise him upon the | loud | cymbals.

Let | everything • that hath | breath :
praise (ye) | . . |. the | Lord.

Glory be to the Father | and to · the Son :
and | to the | Holy | Ghost.

As it was in the beginning is now and · ever shall be :
world without end. A ... men.

People are so awesome. Aren't they?

One more:

The Anglican Archbishop of York Dr. John Sentramu, laying down his crozier at retirement in a deserted Yorkminster (early Covid -- June 7th 2020) accompanied by his wife, Reverend Margaret Sentamu.

Could be Kings College, but it's the Yorkminster Choristers -- prerecorded.

Religious music can be so beautiful or so dull. This one is pretty awesome.
