Concept and origins. Each Adiemus album is a collection of song-length pieces featuring harmonised vocal melody against an orchestra background. The vocal parts are not written in an actual language, despite some of the lyrics bearing a passing similarity to Latin.
The jazz saxophone and guitar solos of Nigel Hitchcock and Martin Taylor are stunning particularly in 'Dona Nobis Pacem Part II'. Classical solos come from the cellist Richard Harwood who delivers a gorgeous solo in 'Aria'.
Repertoire: Adiemus V – Vocalise. Artists: Belinda Sykes (vocals, soloist), Martin Taylor (guitar) et al., London Philharmonic Orchestra/Karl Jenkins. Rating: 3/5. Genre: Orchestral/Vocal. Label: EMI 557 6492.
On Vocalise, the fifth instalment in his Adiemus series, composer Karl Jenkins presents his first discernable lyrics (an invocation sung in English on "The Protector") and his first arrangements, quite eclectic, of classical repertoire (imagine a movement of Beethoven's seventh symphony recast as a tango).
