Paul the Apostle Church. The performers were The Combined University Choirs and The Bronx Art Ensemble. The Conductor was Robert Minotti. They performed the oratorios Ave Verum Corpus (Mozart) , American Folk hymns like Amazing Grace and another famous oratorio, by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Requiem.The first selection we heard was Ave Verum Corpus. I had never heard this piece before and as I listened I found it to be very soothing. The vocalists were complimented by the music that accompanied them. It was a soothing piece and was sung in Latin. I had trouble keeping up with the translation in the program because the annunciation of the choir was poor. But it sounded so beautiful. The resonance of sound in the St Paul the Apostle Church is amazing. I was surrounded by the sound of the choir. It was quite different (in my opinion) from a concert hall. To me the sound seemed to be coming right out of the wall. Perhaps the church had great acoustics. The first thing that came into my mind was the Gregorian Chants. Although that had no musical accompaniment, I found that the changes in pitch and dynamics were similar. Overall, this oratorio had a very high pitch and a soft dynamic. The melody in the instrumental were legato, or smooth and connected. Towards the end of the piece there was a cadence and then a ritardando. Amazing Grace was sung by a tenor and was done a cappella. This was not the first time I heard this obviously; in fact I actual sang it once with a chorus in high school. I enjoyed this very much. I found that as the tenor sang there was ascension in pitch. What especially stood out for me was the part when he sang "I once was lost, but now am found". When he sang "I once was lost" I noticed there was a decrescendo and then a crescendo when he began singing "but now am found". Another song that was performed was by a quartet composed of females; two sopranos and two altos.
