About

In celebration of Sir Karl Jenkins’s 75th birthday and released to coincide with his birthday concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London, Decca releases 10 catalogue titles on CD.

This set of reissues completes the catalogue now on Decca, which includes the complete Adiemus series.

Karl’s setting made his Stabat Matter a universal depiction of grief by using ancient text from the area (Holy Land/Middle East) that will be sung in Hebrew, Greek and Aramaic (the lingua franca of the period) and a contemporary poem, sung in English. The orchestration includes instruments indigenous to the area, percussion such as the darbuka and riq and the woodwind duduk.

Originally released in 2008.
