Easter from King's College

Post by paul »

King's just televised on the BBC an Easter service from King's college Cambridge, it will be available on IPlayer soon.

Here is a clip from the TV Program.

Looks good. The last one made it on YouTube in full so hopefully this one will too.

Yep, it's now online. Too bad it seems to be out of sync, but well, the sound is what matters isn't it.

What a brilliant voice the Miserere soloist has – he absolutely nails that second solo verse. I don't think I have heard it sung that well in a live recording – let me think – ever. :mrgreen:

I have yet to listen the whole thing through, but the quality of singing seems particularly high this year.

Wow, I really like You Were There. I've heard and sung it lots of times at church, but I'm not sure I ever heard that last verse - now I'm going to have to check our hymn book to see if it's in there.

I looked at a little of the full version, but I'll have to watch the rest of it later. Looks good though. :D

I agree, I also like You were there, it was also sung at St Philip's Passiontide. Thomas done the final solo on that.

Yep, the Miserere soloist was first class.

That particular song was actually the first I heard from Kings. I may have to visit King's College for a service as its only an hours drive from me :D I'm sure they sound even better inside the chapel.

"There is a Green Hill..." where have we heard that before? I've got to usher in the morning so I can't listen to the whole thing now, but I will do so sometime tomorrow.

I would have to agree that King's is sounding very good at the moment. Slightly disappointed that Miserere was cut by more than half, but what we got was top notch with a very rousing Hallelujah. Very enjoyable.
