What is it about 'Benedictus' that reduces me to tears every time I hear it? It is quite simply one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. It doesn't matter that I've a degree in music production or that anyone else on this site has any sort of qualifications of any kind. Any human ear ...

I know classical music very well, play the violin (was a student of Broadus Earl), have sung as a young person in many choirs, and have attended hundreds of concerts ranging from the BSO to the Concertgebouworkest.

We have just started this work in our choir, and I'm really enjoying it. Its stirring, moody and misty qualities enhance the dramatic qualities of each section, and evoke sensitive emotions. Our choir are looking forward to performing this work in Jersey later this year !

The work has stirring, dramatic movements and some poignant, beautiful melodies. I really had to take a grip on myself in the performance to be able to sing the last mov ...

Karl Jenkins, Jenkins: The Armed Man - A Mass For Peace is an amazing piece of music. I first heard it in Exeter Cathedral on Thursday November 11th 2004, and I was staggered by the effect it generated on the audience, including the young members of the audience.

Karl Jenkins, Jenkins: The Armed Man - A Mass For Peace - This starts with men marching to war and after the pre-battle rituals the horror of burning men is depicted in the battles and peace triumphantly follows.
This piece should be played more often, I would certainly go to a performance. A truly ...

Karl Jenkins, Jenkins: The Armed Man - A Mass For Peace - Every piece causes different thoughts and feelings. It is beautiful and the melodies make shivers run through your whole body. One of the most amazing pieces of music I have ever heard.
