James MacMillan - Cantos Sagrados (1989/1997)

[@LuiDeca]

MacMillan is great. I saw his percussion concerto no.2 live and it was one of the best performances i've seen. Definitely one of my favorite contemporary composers.

[@kofiLjunggren]

Agree!!

[@alexeigoukov1109]

Not very friendly to the voices: a voice is no percussive instrument, yet is used as such over large stretches.

This is a great recording! I’ve loved this work for years but never heard it performed this well.

[@Scriabin_fan]

Can't really actuvely listen to the full thing rn but the first minute of this is absolutely captivating.

[@Vannie1958]

I sang this in a chamber choir, Southern Voices, in Winchester many years ago. Was a wonderful challenge and I think we did pretty well!! I still love it.

[@nils8950UTAUACC]

I only say that because I'm a member lol. Sadly not on this recording, but I'm in some of the other tracks in the CD this comes from.

First 3 minutes sound like The Matrix soundtrack I wonder if there's a connection here.
