    I close my eyes and it makes me feel like I'm inside a 12th Century cathedral surrounded by peasants, lords, and knights in armor. The monks singing, and the smell of incense and candles permeating everywhere. Pure Medieval feeling!

      No. They were Catholics, not Roman Catholics. Protestants, such as Anglicans, call themselves Catholics even to this day. Roman Catholicism is a name to distinguish them after the division of the church. And while this is "Gregorian" as an outline, the rhythm is contemporary as is the arrangement which is from 1992.

Choral music is, in my opinion, the best expression of music on the earth, and there is NO piece performed by Anuna that I do not consider exceptional. Their music is genius, timeless, and inspiring. You are a musical mastermind, Mr. McGlynn. Thank you so very much for the amazing works of art that you contribute to a world that is in definite need of them.

    Actually, the sound and technique of the choir is that of a amazingly Classical-trained one (specialised in ancient music, of course, it doesn't sound the same as a normal Classical Choir). And Micheal McGlynn's vocal skills are very impressive too, even for Classical music standards, and he's got an amazing voice.
