Customer Reviews
A combination of style and substance.
This mass, based on the ancient Frnech secular text "L'Homme Armé" is a musical tour de force with excellent contrast between the instrumental and vocal elements. Highlights for me include the second movement (Call to Prayers) and the very end of the last movement (Better is Peace) which takes a text from the far end of Revelation from the Bible to complete the impression of a thoroughly modern yet totally viable mass setting.
amazing...
The soprano line in the 'Benedictus' is truly awe inspiring.. a melody with such meaning I have never heard of in modern times. truly brings you closer to the lord. Amen
I just love this
Its like Carmina Burana meets the british airways theme , the whole album is amazing , it takes you into battle , helps you win the fight and then leaves you ,on hearing the choir fade away at the end ,wanting to do it all again even though you now know that War is a terrible thing , well , thats how it makes me feel anyway ! Some great tracks on thier own , The armed Man , Kyrie , Sanctus , Better is peace , but much better when you just sit down and listen to the album as a whole , real clever and some great surpises with some bits of music that you WILL have heard before. I like the way , like the Carmina Burana it starts and ends with almost the same track.
