Descriptionfonte:
en.wikipedia.orgReleased
in 1997, Adiemus II: Cantata Mundi is the second
album by Welsh composer Karl Jenkins as part of
the Adiemus project. Building on the style
established in Adiemus: Songs of Sanctuary,
Jenkins broadens his musical approach to Cantata
Mundi by including instrumentation and techniques
from Eastern Europe, Arabia, and Asia. Compared to
the earlier work, the orchestra is also expanded
to include woodwinds and brass. The overall form
of this album is a cantata of fourteen movements
alternating between longer 'cantus' pieces
and brief
'chorales'.

rateyourmusic.comgCantata
Mundi, the second album by Karl Jenkins’
neo-classical group Adiemus, is certainly an
oddity. Structurally, it’s a concerto, split
into several movements by juxtaposing longer
pieces with snappy interludes; instrumentally,
it’s a fusion of string orchestra and exotic
world percussion, uniformly underpinned by the
graceful choral vocalisations (performed in
Jenkins’ fantastical language so as to emphasise
sonic flow). As a result, Cantata Mundi more than
lives up to its name, a fact which is both its
biggest strength and its greatest weakness.
Let
me defend this statement. Considered as a whole,
the album is strong, the soft instrumentation
gently seguing from one segment to another. It
makes perfect accompaniment for revision,
housework or anything else WHERE your full
attention is required elsewhere. I say this not
because the music isn't strong enough to stand
up on its own, but Cantata Mundi does lose steam
once you start noticing its flaws. Specifically,
the interludes are unnecessary interruptions, mere
annoyances to split up the longer tracks.
Expanded, they might have been interesting enough
to warrant inclusion - as it stands, they simply
serve to clog up your media player with
underwritten material.
Still, with such
delicious longer tracks, I can hardly remain angry
at Cantata Mundi. The soothing woodwind touches
on \"Song of Tears\"; the classical bombast of
\"Song of the Spirit\"; the quirky vocalisations
on \"Song of the Trinity\"; the frivolous
instrumentation of \"Song of the Odyssey\"; and
chorister Miriam Stockley's crystalline
overdubs on \"Song of Aoelus\"... each cut appeals
to the New Age aficianado in me. Granted, almost
all of these cuts could be usefully snipped with
the editorial scissors (the overlong handclapping
of \"Song of the Plains\" springs to mind) and
\"Song of Invocation\" does seem to drift a bit
aimlessly, but any fan of Adiemus is going to be
satisfied with this haul.
But this brings us to
the other main flaw of the album: its homogeneity.
Truth be told, you'll almost be forced to
consider the album as a whole, rather than as the
sum of its parts, since you'll be hard pressed
to tell each track apart. Granted, this
similarity gives Cantata Mundi an important
stylistic unity essential when considering its
artistic intentions, but it does make listening to
it in its entirity (the very thing I said that
brought out its strengths) somewhat tedious. This
fact is only exacerbated by the numerous
interludes, which are not only annoyingly
interspersed (as mentioned above), but also seem
to be six different-yet-identical Enya castoffs.
This homogeneity spreads further than merely
the confines of the album. Cantata Mundi is
remarkably similar to Adiemus' debut, Songs of
Sanctuary (which is, in turn, incredibly similar
to every other Adiemus album out there). Although
its overall competence makes Cantata Mundi
difficult to dislike, you'd probably be better
served seeking out an Adiemus compilation, both
for the fact that you'll get the equivalent of
five Adiemus albums on one disc, but that such a
collection will also give you all the tasty edits
without the bearded baggage. Currently, Cantata
Mundi is merely Songs of Sanctuary with some
additional bells and whistles.
Literally.
