The Ultimate Take on the "Adagio for Strings." Samuel Barber's Agnus Dei. A432 Hz

There are simply no words to express the depth of this choral take on Samuel Barber's "Agnus Dei" (Lamb of God)" performed here by Matthew Curtis, an American choral director. The Agnus Dei is actually a section from one of Barber's own 4-string quartets (hence the four voices), and was arranged by the same composer only after a friend's suggestion. The "Adagio for Stings" was popularized in the 1986 war-film, Platoon, by Oliver Stone. I converted this track to A-432hz tuning to enhance the spiritual element in this piece. (You 'bettah believe it!). The key is B-flat minor, which I see as purple. Matthew Curtis's vocal work can be found at matthewcurtis.com. The image (icon?) on the lower left is my Musicolor Matrix, a color-shape layout of music chords and their connective harmonic functions. At the risk of feeding a singer's ego, this is arguably DEFINITELY the greatest realization of this Barber piece ever (probably). The effects on this video took me at least ten hours to do on FInal-Cut Pro, but I enjoyed with every moment of bringing a visual story to this remarkable recording. I also must say, anytime I do a re-make video, I have to adjust and EQ the audio to help bring it out. Matthew's recording is the ONLY recording where I did not need even TOUCH the audio. So, someone out there knows what they are doing! God Bless You All! And God Bless you, Matthew. Thank you for your gift. - The Acoustic Rabbit Hole
