  Karl Jenkins - The Story of Adiemus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Now, years after the initial Adiemus project was launched, Karl has discovered that Adiemus has a meaning in Latin (with a slight variation in spelling).
The knowledge that Adiemus has a meaning - 'we will draw near' invokes what I feel to be an appropriate concept of bringing people together.
Since Adiemus has risen in popularity around the world, it has become a growing entity meaning many different things to many different people.

 Adiemus Live (March 2001) at Musical Discoveries
Welsh Adiemus fans are reported to have queued for hours when the tickets to this live performance were initially made available.
And whilst the vocals in Adiemus' music are heard on the albums primarily as layers of Miriam Stockley's work, the live performance achieves a similar effect from nine Finnish girls, who unfortunately were mixed up a bit higher than we would have liked.
Adiemus is difficult to classify but they appeal to vast audiences worldwide.

 Karl Jenkins: Adiemus
Adiemus is difficult to categorise because it's the culmination of 25 years of experimenting with and integrating different kinds of music.
To sound like the album, Adiemus had to use backing tapes to reproduce elements of the studio recording that couldn't be performed live: Miriam Stockley's vocal overdubs and some of the percussion.
The Adiemus sound could not have been achieved without extensive multitracking and the use of computers and samples, so it's in terms of the hardware it uses as well as its combination of musical influences that this is genuine crossover music.

 ADIEMUS MUSIC
ADIEMUS IV Upon hearing "Cu Chullain," the fascinating first song on THE ETERNAL KNOT from Adiemus, listeners know what they are set for...another colorful look at the world through the eyes of Karl Jenkins.
Beyond this unique focus, Adiemus' blend of world-influenced choral-chant vocals and symphonic classical music again proves to be a winning combination.
You'd expect his music to be interesting, and it is; what you don't expect is that it would also be arrestingly lovely.

At one time, any reference to Adiemus, or the group?s composer, Karl Jenkins, would invariably mention the soundtrack music for the hugely successful Delta Airlines commercial in the mid-90s.
Jenkins feels his goal with Adiemus is to create a sound that incorporates a diverse style of music and yet sounds like one musical form.

 Adiemus IV - The Eternal Knot at Musical Discoveries
The traditional Adiemus vocals of Miriam Stockley and Mary Carewe are enhanced quite well by the high soprano voice of Caryl Ebenezer.
At the beginning they must have had some problems with the sound-technique because Miriam was nearly not heard - most of all her solo during the end of "In caelum fero." They also seemed to have turned up some other parts of the orchestra during the piece.
During "Adiemus, The 1999 Version" it was a funny experience to see that a Gemshorn is exactly what it is called.

 Amazon.com: The Journey: The Best of Adiemus: Music: Adiemus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
In the uniquely compelling music of Adiemus, the female voice becomes a true instrument, with the freedom to use vowel and consonance as pure sound, unrestricted by verbal meaning.
The disc covers the best of three different Adiemus CD's, with 6 tracks from each disc plus a remake of the first tune which is basically just more heavily orchestrated.

Adiemus IV - The Eternal Knot ~ Karl Jenkins
The work of European composer Karl Jenkins, the Adiemus debut SONGS OF SANCTUARY is one of those late 20th century musical triumphs whose success came, oddly enough, through a Delta Airlines TV commercial in which the track "Adiemus" was featured.
If you have ever hummed to yourself, not some simple ditty, but attempted to use your voice as an instrument going smoothly from one note to another, the sound of voices in Adiemus is similar varying from string-like to ethnic chanting.

 Gig review: Adiemus
Adiemus has little to do with Soft Machine and Soft Machine attracted less than two sentences in the programme.
There is a freshness to Adiemus that was further enhanced in a live performance.
At times, I was reminded of Pip Pyle in a recent In Cahoots gig: the same manic drive to the percussion with which everyone else was desperately trying to keep up.

 JR.com: Adiemus - Adiemus V: Live in Music: New Age:   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Adiemus is the brainchild of composer Karl Jenkins (former member of Soft Machine), who writes heraldic, Celtic-inspired music for traditional symphonic instruments.
The twist is that, while Jenkins composes within the confines of Western classical forms and instrumentation, his work bursts with lively tribal rhythms and awe-inducing choral singing, featuring lyrics written in a made-up language.
The most fun is had on the otherworldly concert-closer "Dos a Dos" (from ADIEMUS III: DANCES OF TIME), which sounds like the Ewoks performing "Oklahoma!" Newcomers to the Adiemus sound would do well to hear this collection first.

Miriam Stockley is the star vocalist, whose sensual yet angelic solos and overdubs are essential to Adiemus's sound, but Jenkins also enlists the voices of Mary Carewe and the Adiemus Singers, a Finnish vocal ensemble.
(Don't worry If you can't understand the lyrics; Adiemus sings in an invented language.) Jenkins's style is recognizable throughout the album, but each composition bursts with its own distinctive wave of rhapsodic melody, dynamic tension, and intriguing syncopation.
