Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera, and four Welsh choirs, conducted by Jenkins himself on the occasion of his 60th birthday in February 2004. It was filmed in St David's Hall Cardiff (I was in the third row of the audience!)

The relationship between music making& worship of God or Deities is perhaps as old as prostitution & militarism. The worship aspect is often connected with giving thanks to God for victory in battle A requiem is often set in the context of war as a prayer for dead souls. Many civilisations have developed a narrative for expressing a particularly universal view of God as a kind of benevolent overseer of human bloodshed who helps one side win & gives succour to the defeated which Jesus disputes.

@xenon1919 doesn't the complexity of life puzzle you that people say that it could have made itself that way? Don't you see that everything is meaningless without god because without him everything is done for the glory of yourself

[stepharnos]

@xenon1919 to make that proclamation is to assume you yourself are correct and therefore a hypocrite, the argument dosen't work philosophically it's like the analogy that there's an elephant and different religions hold to different parts of the elephant but it really makes something bigger, this however is an assumption

@Fladabosco No. Definitely NOT written by Dufay. The song is much, much older.
