Adiemus

Carmina Slovenica Choir
Orchestra Chorus Instrumentalis

Author of the project and conductor: Karmina Šilec

Adiemus occupied the imagination of the music-lovers all over the world. Therefore this musical work was one of the most saleable albums and reached the scale tops of classical as well as ethnical music.

Karl Jenkins’ popular vocal-instrumental work Adiemus belongs to a sort of symphonic music with a touch of ethnic music. To define Adiemus is the best way to denote it as a “new age” or “progressive” music. Adiemus is formed of any different kinds of melodies, distinctive harmonies and minimalistic repetitions of musical themes that Jenkins shaped into an expanded choral work.
