1587–1654
Samuel Scheidt at youtube.com
This next is a really unusual modern realization, a vocaloid,
of Duo Seraphim by the seventeenth-century German composer Samuel Scheidt
from twenty-first-century Japan.
Talk about multiculturalism!
Note: The music doesn’t start until 0:20.

Duo seraphim clamabant, alter ad alterum: Sanctus Dominus Deus Sabaoth. Plena est omnis terra gloria ejus. Tres sunt qui testimonium dant in coelo. Pater, Verbum, et Spiritus Sanctus et hic tres unum sunt. Laus et perennis gloria Deo Patri cum Filio, sancto simul Paraclito in sempiterna secula. | The two Seraphim proclaimed, one to the other: Holy Lord God of Hosts. The whole earth is full of his glory. There are three who give testimony in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. Praise and continuing glory be to God the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit now and forevermore. |
What glorious music!
Likewise!
