If you've not seen this in the News forum, I'm putting it here at the request of Admin!
Firstly a confession - I'm only a 'phonetic' reader of Esperanto. This results from being a member of the choir at St Mary's Episcopal Church in Hamilton, Scotland. One of our members has been an esperantist for a good few years, and a few years ago did a translation of the text of Fauré's Requiem as an exercise. Recently the choir decided it would be good to perform it. I therefore prepared a score with his assistance, and we sang it at a concert in Glasgow this summer. We had it recorded and I've now managed to upload it to YouTube. It's had to be divided into three separate videos, and these are the links -
Movements 1&2
Movements 3-5
Movements 6&7
Some of you have already found them, judging by the number of views, and we hope more will enjoy not just hearing Esperanto sung, but also a nice performance of the Requiem. If any of you are singers, we could arrange for you to buy copies of the score to put on your own performance - details are in the information on YouTube.
Bonvolu frandi (I hope that's what I mean!)
