Unknown soloists in Libera songs

Post by filiarheni »

Inspired by the current highly interesting discussion about the identity of the other main solo part's singer of Venite Adoremus in the "Hope" thread and also by my own long-term wondering about Voca Me and Ave Verum, I'd like to start this new thread to collect all these questions here and maybe-hopefully find an answer in the one or another case. :wink: :D

Apart from the Venite Adoremus question to be answered, so far I've been wondering about the following:

- Voca Me
Joseph Platt sings the vocalises. For the other parts, Anthony Chadney and Chris Robson are credited. Who sings which one?

- Ave Verum
Vocalises by?

- I am the Day ("Free")
Vocalises by?

- Benedictus Deus
Who sings the low octave from 1:50 onwards?

Is Ben C not the soloist on I am the day with Joe Platt high notes?

Joe Platt in I am the Day is plausible, however is this just a guess or is it verified?

Thanks for sharing it!! The first time I've seen this video. :D

And I would like to add to the list: who sings the lower octave at the refrain of Time? There's one in the background...

Pretty sure it's Josh singing the lower octave along with Ben in Time. :) You can see it in the music video (watch him in the background at 1:09-1:13), and I doubt they would have synced it that way if it wasn't him singing it, since it's not a hugely noticeable part.

I also think that it's likely to be Josh (as no one else is credited), but to be honest I found the video of 'Time' a bit boring so I didn't look closely. :shock: Thank you very much! :D
