Karl Jenkins: The Adiemus Collection: Brass Ensemble: Score and Parts

Karl Jenkins' instantly recognisable song is the theme from Songs Of Sanctuary but is more widely identified as the backdrop to the Delta Airlines television commercial. This fantastic collection lets you explore the best of Adiemus from the three best-selling albums; Songs Of Santuary Cantata Mundi and Dances Of Time. Arranged for Piano Voice and Guitar.

Karl Jenkins' The Essential Organ Album is a collection of original pieces and arrangements including selections from Adiemus The Armed Man Requiem and Palladio.

Songs Of Sanctuary is an extended choral-type work based on the European classical tradition but where the vocal sound is more akin to 'ethnic' or 'world' music. The idea was to have some thematic unity within the work as a whole rather than a collection of disparate pieces in song form. This vocal score which includes the optional recorder part in the score is primarily intended for rehearsal use. However it is possible to make a convincing performance with voices and piano.

Theme from Songs of Sanctuary Instrument : mixed choir (SATB) and piano Type : choral score Nombre de Pages : 12 The music from the million-selling album, featured on the Delta Air Lines TV commercial. Adiemus combines classical and ethnic influences to create a haunting, tribal sound. Songs of Sanctuary is an extended choral-type work based on the European classical tradition, but where the vocal sound is more akin to ethnic or world music. The idea was to have some thematic unity within the work as a whole, rather than a collection of disparate pieces in song form. The structures of Songs of Sanctuary are influenced, in the main, by classical form, e. g. modified rondo, ternary, da capo aria. This is of extra importance because of the lack of lyric message that sustains conventional song form. The text was written phonetically with the words viewed as instrumental sound, the idea being to maximise the melisma (an expressive vocal phrase) by removing the distraction, if one can call it that, of words. The sound is universal, as is the language of music. Content : Adiemus
