*Esmeralda spitting at Frollo* The crowd, now even more afraid: uhh.... *Lord, have mercy*

Simply one of THE most powerful scores ever written by Menkin. Absolute genius.

I remember reading a comment about Quasimodo lifting Esmeralda and yelling "sanctuary!". The comment said that Esmeralda's pose resembles Jesus Christ when he's being nailed to the cross.

The moment Quasimodo struggles against his changes shouting, "NO!" With the choir pleading "Deliver me, O' Lord" sends shivers!

thank you so very much for this, this is possibly the most powerful scene in the whole film that when i saw it in the cinema as a little kid left me speechless, after coming out the cinema my mam asked me how was it, and i couldn't talk i was that blown away by it and for whatever reason this scene sticks in my memory.

this scene always gave me shivers, but....wow. when you actually understand what the words mean, it gives a whole new depth to it. I love how certain words such as "judge" have a double meaning, and..."Deliver me, o Lord, from eternal death" when Quasimodo goes to rescue her!? my gosh, that's just epic! this film really was Disney's masterpiece, and they put so much depth into it that really shows how committed they were to the story. I can't imagine any filmmaker would have the guts to do something like this today.

2:57...man what a moment, the shout in front of the Rose Window. None of Caesar's business in the walls of the church, only the Lord's business.

1:41 to 3:08 will always be one of my favorite parts of any song.

This scene always gives me chills up my spine whenever I watch it. The Latin verses are beautiful and fit in PERFECTLY with the events unfolding in this scene. Makes me want to learn Latin again!

I’m a Baptist, but I love traditional Latin church chants, they give me goosebumps because they’re pure worshipping ❤

To me the choir was just as much a character in the movie~ when I first saw it I was like "those are the Bells singing" and I still feel that way~

Thank you so much for translating this - great job! :D It's one of my favourite scenes in HoND, and now when I know what the choir is really singing it brings so much more depth and meaning to the scene...

I would´ve so fucking loved to have heard the audience reactions when this was new.

I remember watching this movie when i was about 7. And it terrified but amazed me. And i still love the soundtracks and everything. But a major issue i had was since i was 7 i didn’t understand time/timelines/history, so thought Gypsies were still hated (to this extent)… my mom and i are Roma(Gypsy). I had nightmares that a crazy French man was gonna come kill us for MONTHS. Other than that, fantastic movie!

When reading the translation while listening to the music brought shivers and goosebumps. I love this part so much!

The most bone chilling battle scene, with the most bone chilling music to accompany it. Oh, how the mighty have fallen, Disney…

All lyrics are in latins except Κύριε Ελέησον(kirie eleison) its ancient Greek (= Αρχαία Ελληνικά)! Many parts of the Holy Bible is at first written in Ancient Greek and after were been translated into latins. In our churches, our bishops keep reading the original psalms in the first language were been written! 😀

When I studied at university, I had to learn Latin for one year, I truly hated this language ^^" it made me fall asleep the moment I began to do my homework. So I do not have positive thoughts about Latin, haha. But this song is so much more powerful and epic in Latin then in English! Just so great! Thank you for your work 😊 Upd: OMG, shame on me!! I completely forgot that the original language of this song IS Latin >___

I love how THoND's main motif is Hellfire, Every part of the movie can't resist utilizing Hellfire's motif or even "Kyrie Eleison"

My god 2:44 is so *glorious* and makes me feel so *holy*

3:05 LOVE the bit of word painting there. "In the highest" being sung on very high notes. Can't believe how much DETAIL went into this score! Truly underrated and incredible!

Wow, the song is telling the scene!!

Thank you so much! I love this movie and this scene is the one of the most epic has ever Disney made!😘😘

Thank you! I have always wondered what they sang. This is the Disney movie with the best music.

And here we go, one more occasion to exercise one of my favorite activities : adding the macrons to texts in Latin that don't distinguish vowel length, even though it's literally part of the pronunciation. Let's go. Jūdex crēderis (1) esse ventūrus In tē Domine spērāvī Nōn cōnfundar in aeternum Salvum fac populum tuum Jūdex crēderis (1) Kyrie Eleison/Κῡ́ριε (2) ἐλέησον Kyrie Eleison/Κῡ́ριε (2) ἐλέησον Kyrie Eleison/Κῡ́ριε (2) ἐλέησον Līberā mē, Domine ! Līberā mē Domine, dē mortē aeternā In diē illā tremendā Quandō caelī movendī sunt Caelī et Terra Dum vēneris (3) jūdicāre Saeculum per ignem Quae caelīs pandis ōstium Bella premunt hostīlia Dā rōbur, fer auxilium Sit sempiterna glōria, sit sempiterna glōria Sit sempiterna glōria, glōria Glōria semper Sānctus, Sānctus (also they sing that on a freaking B, quick props to the singers because as a soprano myself, I can tell you, that's super duper high) In excelsīs Cum resurget creātūra Jūdicantī respōnsūra Nihil inultum remanēbit Quem patrōnum rogātūrus cum vix jūstus sit sēcūrus ? Jūste, jūdex ultiōnis Ante diem ratiōnis Kyrie Eleison/Κῡ́ριε (2) ἐλέησον Kyrie Eleison/Κῡ́ριε (2) ἐλέησον (1) it translated as crēderis, present tense, and that to me makes more sense, but it could be crēdēris, future tense, especially since in the song they stress the second syllable (which in spoken form would mean it is the latter form, but it's being sung so it doesn't really mean anything) ; we can't know for sure (and that is why vowel length matters, it changes the meaning of the text). (2) sorry if the upsilon looks weird, I wanted to put a macron and a stress but it doesn't look great, and there is no precomposed Unicode character for that (3) slight ambiguity again ; vēneris is future perfect indicative and seems much more likely in the context of the song ; vēnerīs is possible too, although it seems unlikely since it's perfect (thus past) subjunctive, but again, i have no way to be absolutely certain There you go !

fun fact: kyrie eleison translated from MODERN Greek is “sir, take it easy” and i’ll never be able to see this movie the same way. Esmeralda: *spits in Frollo’s face* Frollo: *seething rage* Background Choir: “Sir, take it easy!”

Every song is better with a Latin chorus, and knowing what the words mean improves the quality. Prove me wrong

Frollo: Choose me, or the fire. Me: Unthinkable! You presume she would forsake her own people to become the object of your lust? You have gone quite mad, Frollo!

SANCTUARY!!!

Il latino, la mia grande passione! ×_× adoro!!!

Disney is planning to make a live-action of this film. As far as the music goes, they have a lot to live up too.

When the story is based in France, and you're proud to be french for these kind of thing :D " DROIT D'ASIIIIIIIIILE ! "

!Sublime, me eriza los pelos!

Judex crederis esse venturus, in te domine speravi Non confundar in aeternum Salvum pac populum tuum Judex crederis Kyrie eleison Kyrie eleison Kyrie eleison Libera me Domine Libera me Domine de morte aeterna In die illa tremenda Quando caeli movendi sunt Caeli et terra Dum veneris judicare saeculum per ignem Salva me, Salutaris hostia Quae caeli pandis ostium Bella premunt hostilia Da robus, fer auxilium Sit sempiterna gloria Sit sempiterna gloria Sit sempiterna gloria Gloria Gloria semper Sanctus, Sanctus In excelsis Mors stupebit et natura Cum resurget creatura Judicanti responsura Judex ergo cum sedebit Nihil inultum remanebit Quem patronum rogaturus cum vix justus sit securus? Juste judex ultionis Ante diem rationis Kyrie eleison Kyrie eleison

This scene reminded me of how I felt when I was 8-15 child abused by my own blood mother and her boyfriend and I felt like giving up from enduring 7 years of abuse: physically, Phycologically, Mentally and Sexually. But when I cried unto the Lord, I felt the holy spirit inside of me the day I was saved screaming, "Sanctuary! Sanctuary! Sanctuary of this innocent soul and child of man who loved the Lord but is lost. Lead him back to you Lord!"

Se questa non è una delle scene più intense del mondo dell'animazione, allora non so cosa possa fregiarsi di tale titolo.

very very cool

"Iudicanti" is an active participle so "the One who is judged" (passive voice) is incorrect. It should say "the One judging".

For the unofficial record, how many languages do you know?

One mistake, its libera me domine, infortre inferna And libera me domine means free me master/lord

Alan MENKEN Isolated Score Sanctuary (Singing In Latin)

Could anybody provide similar compositions with latin chorus, and sounding like this or Mozart's Requiem?

Opening To Peter Pan 1998 Vhs

The sad thing is God gave Frollo the way out in Hellfire when he asked for it, but Frollo's lust and insanity overrode his desire to do good in God's name.

Ehm... In effetti, credo che stavolta ti sia sbagliata, scusa! "Dies, diei" è sì generalmente maschile, ma può anche essere declinato al femminile in espressioni che assumano un significato equivalente ad "una data fissata/prestabilita": questo tipo di costruzioni si trova spesso anche in Cesare, quindi il tuo dovrebbe proprio essere un ipercorrettismo - scusa ancora! Inoltre per il greco la traslitterazione non è il massimo, in caratteri latini la pronuncia del termine (e qui scusami, ma scrivere in greco al computer è un'impresa titanica!) è "eléeson", la forma che hai scelto tu corrisponde alla pronuncia bizantina e neogreca, diffusa anche tra i filologi rinascimentali prima della rivoluzione di Erasmo. Mi dispiace, so benissimo di essere troppo puntigliosa, comunque sei fantastica, adoro le tua traduzioni, anche se tendo a non farmi sentire le seguo sempre dall'ombra!

Why Disney stopped making things like this?
