This classically based choral work with world music sensibilities is the brainchild of composer and conductor Karl Jenkins. Creating a universal sound, Jenkins' goal is to utilize a language of music that is ambitious as well as accessible - Adiemus is certainly both. The multi-voice, choral atmosphere is created by just two voices, Miriam Stockley and Mary Carewe. Featuring the London Philharmonic Orchestra, this album's grand, sweeping scope suggests a place of sanctuary and refuge. This is a satisfying effort for any fan of vocal music.
