Sacred music was for the use within the 'Church', based on Holy text to praise God. Melodies were often based on Plain-chant. Secular music was music 'for the people', text was often based on county tales and folklaw. This music would have probably danced to.
The text that Haydn uses in Gloria is a sacred latin text that is of the traditional mass that dates back hundreds of years. I don't think the text is credited to anyone and the same text is used for all Gloria settings.
Kyrie eleison, Christe eleison "Lord have mercy, Christ have mercy" are the only Greek words in the Latin mass.
German and Latin.Although technically correct, "German and Latin" is not very accurate, since about 80% of the text is in Medieval Latin, less than 20% is in Middle High German and the rest (a few verses) is in Old Provençal. Some sections are written macaronicly; first Latin Text, then a German version, as demonstrated in "Floret silva nobilis":Hinc equitavit, / eia, quis me amabit?Der ist geriten hinnen, o wi, wer sol mich minnen?(He rode from here, hey, who shall love me?)
Traditionally it is pronounced as in Latin (YEH-zoo), but as this text is not the original I see no problem with singing it however you see fit; I have even heard the first word changed to "Jesus," which does make more sense than using Latin. The original text is "Jesus bleibet meine Freude" and the movement is taken from Bach's cantata BWV 147 "Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben."
Verba is the Latin word meaning Text.
A speech choir is a group of individuals who come together to recite a written text in unison. Typically a speech choir is composed of a group of 12-20 members. The components of a speech choir include: Choir director Choir members Written text Music accompaniment (optional)The choir director is the leader of the speech choir and is responsible for rehearsing and directing the choir members. The choir members are typically school children or college students who have been selected to be part of the speech choir. The written text is a poem speech or other written work that the members will recite in unison. Music accompaniment is an optional component that can add an additional layer of emotion and expression to the speech choir performance.
It was comissioned by Professor J. P. Neumann (a churchman) of the Polytechnic School of Vienna to set text that Neumann had written, in German. The piece was intended for amateurs and thus was meant to be as easy as possible. Making the piece's language the native language of the choir would probably have made things easier for them. Bear in mind that Neumann's text was new: choirs would have been used to the Mass in Latin, but a new text in Latin may have been unnecessarily challenging.
No, a motet is typically a sacred vocal composition in multiple parts, often with religious text.
An effective speech choir performance typically involves clear enunciation, synchronized delivery, expressive interpretation of the text, and cohesive group dynamics. The group should also demonstrate good vocal control, dynamic range, and emotional connection with the audience to deliver a powerful and engaging performance.
To make a speech choir, you need to have a group of people who are willing to work together to recite a piece of text. The text can be anything from a poem to a piece of prose. Once you have your group, you need to decide on who will be the leader. The leader will be responsible for helping the group to memorize the text and for keeping them on track during performances. Once you have your leader, you need to choose a piece of text that everyone is comfortable with. Once you have your text, you need to practice. Practice will help the group to memorize the text and to perfect their delivery. When you are ready, you can perform your speech choir for an audience.
vide is latin to "see" (imperative), so "vide text" means "please see text", or "refer to the text", "look this up in the text" etc.
It could be, however, the cantata was not necessarily sacred. There were secular cantatas written as well. Johann Sebastien Bach wrote the "Coffee Cantata" which was based on secular content.
Madrigals and Motets were both big in the 13th century. The word motet comes from the french word "mot" which means "word" It is a choral piece "with words" Actually motets and madrigals are very similar and are both choral pieces with words. Madrigals usually were written with secular texts and motets with sacred texts.
