Music : Adiemus: Songs of Sanctuary

Rating: 
- Soul destroying tripe.
Having your name extended through qualifications and growing a moustache Dali himself would be proud of does not grant you default access to the soul. High brow nothingness disguised as profound music easily sways sheep. Drop the education, open your heart, and wake up.

Rating: - Adiemus 1
I was first introduced to Adiemus through the realm of advertising, as was most of the world. I did not know then that the music was available to buy, until I heard it on the radio. I noted down the title (unfortunately I did not hear the composer) and bought the album not entirely sure if I had made a good purchase or even if it was the same as I wanted. When I listened to it I had no need to worry. It was fantastic! I had never been into world music before hearing this but I wouldn't mind giving it a go now; for those of you who don't like that genre, it's still worth the buy as there is enough of the classical style in there.
The album has now become mega successful and is definitely an essential album for any classical or world music fan. This is composed by the most popular living composer, Karl Jenkins, he of `The Armed Man' fame, whom I have now come to really like.
Not all the tracks are worth speaking of (mainly the ones starting with `Cantus'), but the title track is fantastic, as are most of the others.
This comes in the standard CD case with a small booklet containing a couple of pictures and a short introduction by the composer, but no lyrics (if you can call them that).
As I already said: this is essential.
Highlights: `Adiemus', `Tintinnabulum', `In Caelum Fero'.

Rating: - Most beautiful music in the world
I sang Adiemus with my school choir last year (2005) in the Wales Millennium Centre in the Christmas Presence concert and I will always remember it as the most beautiful pieces I have ever come across. The close harmonies and the inter-weaving melodies really make your spine tingle and will bring great pleasure to any listener. A really great CD!
Rating: - a musical masterpiece
This album is just the most relaxing, chilled out array of music there is on offer. Its wonderful. After a bad day of traffic and noise this really sets your mind at rest and i would reccommend this to anyone who would appreciate a relaxing moment. Beautifully put together. I'm a big fan of Karl Jenkins!
