Edit: Nevermind, I'm dumb. I shouldn't have let the kid sitting next to me convince me.
What happened to the singer? It seemed pretty obvious to me that he was supposed to be there. I feel bad for the band and the guest artists but they still put on a killer show.
Hi all. I've been trying to do SATB choral writing, possibly to create short anthems or motets to sing at my church. I've done a number of practice pieces but this is the first one I feel is actually good enough that it might be workable. I am a bass and I know at least the bass and tenor lines are singable, but I'd appreciate any comments.

(The empty organ stave will be filled in from the parts later, it's just going to double the voices and probably just be for rehearsal)
so far i understand a motet as a piece of polyphonic vocal music but where did it fit into church service and mass?
Really like the upbeat high-energy songs that you're able to dance to. I need to MOVE. However I don't like the old sounds, i'm much more a fan of modern clean sounds.
Trying to get the sense of the meaning of the lyrics of this medieval motet by Adam de le Halle. Google translate failed, especially in the second half.
J'ai adès d'amours chanté
et servi en bon espoir
ma dame et si ai guerpi pour li avoir
escole amis et avoir
est che dont drois k'amours
mi laissant ne nil voir.
