Title: Simply Amazing.
Product review: I first became aware of Adiemus after purchasing the Pure Moods I CD (the first track of this CD, "Adiemus", is track 08). Amazed at how the vocals seemed as if the whole of a small nation were singing, I purchased this CD, and Adiemus quickly became my favourite group -- of any genre of music. Potential Adiemus fans and collection builders should begin here.Although all the songs feature extended phonetic vocals, the songs vary in intensity and fervor. "Adiemus," "In Caelum Fero," the heightening-in-crescendo "Cantus Iteratus" and "Kayama" are among the more bombastic songs. Complementing (not contrasting) these songs are the more mellow "Cantus Insolitus," "Amate Adea" (the best song on the CD, IMO), and "Hymn," the perfect 'benediction' of sorts for the collection of music. The other tracks hover in between these two distinctions.If intensity is what you seek, your search ends with Adiemus. Wherever you want to go, their music will take you there -- and surely beyond.
