Anthem...it is more dirge like, perhaps a memorial to mankind. It is profoundly gorgeous, shimmering and it suggests a possible salvation towards the end, to me.

[1115WOLF]

@edwinstar100 yes i agree to that more

[1115WOLF]

This piece is one of those that could be voted on by some panel somewhere, as being the official anthem for mankind, or something... I actually cried at 4:50 onward.... I mean that is so wonderful to think about.

This is not the Winchester Cathedral Choir, and this video is property of Margotlorena....

This is the Cambridge Singers.

[Gaubizi]

@Alexandria1812 how do you know it's the Cambridge Singers? To me it sounds very much like children's soprano...

[Alexandria1812]

@Gaubizi Because I have the album... put them side by side perfect match... and because I am friends with lorena, I am sure I know who's video it is.
