    Even though I am an atheist, I find this music absolutely divine. It seems religion was a powerful source of inspiration for musicians and composers.

      I think a lot of people become atheist because most religious scriptures are taught in too literal and dogmatic a sense vs the spiritual and philosophical way I believe they were intended. When it's held up to be literal, factual truths it falls to pieces in front of a logical mind almost instantly, but this was never its intended use I do believe.

    I think this is the best rendition of Samuel Barber's Agnus Dei. I would rather enjoy playing it more if it wasn't for the audio quality (over modulation and distortion) on this video. It will be nice to re-upload this master piece.

    This is a stunning performance, but only about half of it is in this video. The best part comes later when the kids hit some unbelievable high notes. Still, I'm glad I saw this because I only heard this on the radio once and didn't know that the soprano voices were boys or that there was a video at all. I'll have to buy that CD.

    Ouch, that is unfortunate. As you probably know they also sell their recordings on the website too, but I'm guessing the shipping costs might get quite expensive.
    Some of their newest (Illumina) videos are not available outside the UK either. I wonder why that is...
