Psalm 117 - Laudate Domimum

This entry repeats a previous with a relatively new music video upload (January 2014) and a different citation for the words.

The words [1]:  

1 Laudate Dominum omnes gentes laudate eum omnes populi 1 O praise the Lord, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people. 2 Quoniam confirmata est super nos misericordia eius et veritas Domini manet in saeculum 2 For his mercy is confirmed upon us: and the truth of the Lord remaineth for ever.

The music:

[2] A 2008 performance by Genia Kühmeier with the Vienna Philharmonic under the direction of Karel Mark Chichon together with the Vienna Boys' Choir.
[3] For some reason, it is necessary to maximize the volume on both the laptop and Youtube to reach normal listening levels on this upload.
[4] One person commented on a performance by Lucia Popp: "A fine performance by Lucia, though the chorus hammers some of the notes too hard for my taste. Too bad Kühmeier's performance got deleted from YT recently. Now that was something truly special."  Luckily, someone else with a standard Youtube license replaced the deleted upload.  It is worth a listen.
