Adiemus - Cantus - Song of Aeolus

"Released in 1997, Adiemus II: Cantata Mundi is the second album by Welsh composer Karl Jenkins as part of the Adiemus project. Building on the style established in Adiemus: Songs of Sanctuary, Jenkins broadens his musical approach to Cantata Mundi by including instrumentation and techniques from Eastern Europe, Arabia, and Asia. Compared to the earlier work, the orchestra is also expanded to include woodwinds and brass. The overall form of this album is a Cantata of fourteen movements alternating between longer 'cantus' pieces and brief 'chorales'."

Where did you get this video from?

from the movie "Duma" :)

You know Enya didn't have any part in producing Adiemus. It was written by Karl Jenkins, sung by Miriam Stockely.

Thanks for the link, spyderworks - already made a playlist for it LOL. Music is superb; video is an excellent choice as backdrop.

So, I may have to learn the vocals to this for a marching band show.... May I ask (if anyone would know) What the heck the words mean? I found lyrics, but am curious as to what they could possibly mean? Or at least what language they are in. =) Thanks!

This whole album is a masterpiece. What a musical journey! Anfd for those who haven't seen "Duma," I'd recommned it. It's better than your average family film; plus, the soundtrack is awesome.

This was the song for my school's winterguard show Freshman year; I have heard this song so many times I know all the words. I still love it. :)

@AllStater09 they're not words, they're solfege notes. most high school chorus teachers can explain it. I can't, sorry.

This is so amazing. I awakens incredible feelings, it makes me want to dance, cry, shout, laugh, and run forever in the wilderness. It makes me feel connected to nature - to my own, and to the one around me. Makes us One.

Good idea for when you don;t know what lyrics to write to your song - just sing the notes :)
