If there is ever a remake of the "Quest of the Avatar," this should be the song played when you see the symbol of infinity.
;w; I wanna go back into choir just to sing this song...

I can see my self ascending to the heavens in a cloud to this song.

@inyourgenes ...What's wrong.. why are you so upset with nothing? And there is nothing wrong with God or the Belief in God.<in case you were saying God had nothing to do with this piece? I hope you feel better, or less stressed, or that whatever frustrates you goes away.

I think it was composed in memory of a little girl, Athene, half-Greek - who died. Which makes me wonder, is the little in the photographs, Athene..

Thank you for posting this. This will be played at my funeral (hopefully years and years from now). I am utterly mesmerized by this extraordinarily beautiful miracle of a song!!!

I first heard this watching Princess Diana's funeral on tv. This moves me to tears every time I hear it.

I was surprised to learn that this was composed just 16 years a go in 1993. In part it reminds me of a medieval chant, so beautiful and haunting at the same time.

Absolutely stunning.
I first heard it at Princess Di's funeral, and I was fixed upon it in my soul.
It never fails to move me to the eternal, and it always sets my gaze upon God.
