by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (c. 1525 – 1594)

Open the score in a new tab: Sicut Cervus

Psalm 42:

Sicut cervus desiderat ad fontes aquarum,           As the hart longs for the water springs,
ita desiderat anima mea ad te, Deus.                     So longs my soul for thee, O God.

Part I is heard from 0:00 until 3:09.

Note: The score we are using is written in the key of A. These practice videos are in the key of G.

Try the speed control. At the bottom of the video display, there is a little thing that looks like a gear. Click it and you will see options for changing the speed of the video. (Works on some browsers. I use Chrome, and it works.)
