Symfonic Adiemus, Carl Jenkins

  • Mondo Verde - The Netherlands 10 Groene Wereld Landgraaf, LI, 6372 PW Netherlands (map)

The Dutch version of Karl Jenkins' Symfonic Adiemus for choir and orchestra: performed by the Limburg Concert Choir & Concertato Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Steven van Kempen.

Adiemus is a series of albums by the Welsh composer Karl Jenkins. It is also the title of the first track on the first album, Songs of Sanctuary . Each Adiemus album is a collection of musical works with harmonious vocal melodies against an orchestral background. There are no lyrics, except syllables composed by Jenkins and "words" sung by vocalists. Many of the "words" have a Latin or African sound. The core of the Adiemus concept is that the voice should function solely as an instrument.
