Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

A Blessed Lord’s Day to The Mayor family.

Are you safely home? Enjoying a nice day?

[ConorMacNessa]

A Blessed Lord's Day to you, ML.

*HUGS*

Here's the note from the website where I found the transcription:

"Simeon’s song sung – in a Kiev melody – by solo tenor: nonetheless this motet ends with the lowest note in the Rachmaninoff Vespers : a B flat below low C."


"Dia shábháil ar fad anseo!"

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[ConorMacNessa]

Good evening, Luv!

*HUGS*

A Blessed Lord's Day to you!

Yep...that was a Bb alrighty! LOL!

I can get down to the low c but Bb is too low for me! (I was a dramatic coloratura, but over the years I seem to have become more of a contralto, but I can still vocalize up to the high c.)

The solo tenor sounds so characteristic of the Russian Tenors...so different from the sweet Bel Canto Type Tenor we associate with Italian or Irish tenors.

The Russian tenor seems to have a slightly strained or strident sound to it, I think due to Asian Influence. .

I have no idea if there is an “official” opinion on this, but it has been my experience.

There are probably a lot of “Sweet” Russian Tenors, but most of them that I have heard, especially in folk and liturgical music, sound just like the one on this recording.

It gives the music an “edge”.

[The Mayor]

My pleasure.
Yes, I am home and my truck is still in Georgia.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...a Blessed Lord’s Day and Shavua Tov to you and yours.

Glad you liked the message for today.

Did you and Lynn-Dah get out today?

Choir practice?

[left that other site]

Lynn-Dah and I several walks today, in between lessons and rehearsals.

The neighborhood kids are all a little afraid of her until properly introduced, and then they love her. Although she looks like a Lab, her fur is extremely soft because of her Chow Chow ancestry. And since she is black, her fur becomes very warm when we walk in the sun together. Once the children realize she LIKES to be petted, they can’t get enough of her.

And she LOVES the attention! LOL!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Pro...((HUGS))...one thing about the rain....you won’t melt. And you can still have fun.

Glad you went, even if the weather was a tad uncooperative.

For sure, God Bless them all.

A Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Sand, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Perseverance indeed....get up one more time.

Good evening, HJ, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Choir Of King's College, Cambridge

"I VOW TO THEE, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love;
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.

And there's another country, I've heard of long ago,
Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace."
