Penang Festival Chamber Orchestra and Chorus performed this version some 25 years ago .We replaced the original words with a secular text which was translated into and sung in Malay, Chinese and Tamil before returning to English.It was a rousing and moving experience expressing as it did the universal aspiration of one earth one human race.Might make an appropriate prelude to ' Ode to Joy'

an impressive version. Who is it by? Where was it recorded? What is the church/cathedral shown in the photo?
