Rehearsal Tracks

This page lists a number of websites offering a variety of rehearsal tracks for the music Hardynge Choir will be singing in the next concert.

Victoria - O magnum mysterium

Corpus Christi Watershed

https://www.ccwatershed.org/2015/12/07/o-magnum-mysterium-vittoria-motet

This site offers a complete set of YouTube videos and MP3 files for all parts together, and in your voice part, but you have to be online to listen to them. All tracks are sung by singers, not synthesised, and the track in your voice part is louder than the other voices. The YouTube videos are good because you can follow the score as the music progresses.

The Silvis Woodshed

http://gasilvis.net/mids

The MIDI files have all the choral parts together (with no accompaniment) and are constant velocity. Scroll down to Tomas Luis de Victoria - 1611, near the bottom on the page, to see three offerings on different instruments (I have not checked whether they follow Edición Jose Miguel Galán).
