I continue my serial "Stop War" with a track in which I use an old medieval prayer with the mantra-liturgical-word "eleison" which is old greece and means "Have Mercy".

Music, Vocals and Production by Dirigent

The melody is taken from a Bicinium of an unknown composer (11th or 12 th century)

The picture is taken from a press-report about German soldiers in Afghanistan ...

A solemn moment of reflection. The sound effects almost contradicting the hope expressed by the choir. A true picture about a sad reality.

I love this song, Andreas. What a beautiful peaceful chant, juxtaposed against the background of harsh sounds. I'm reminded of Hildegard of Bingen. The analogy is not altogether accurate, I realize, but there is a certain quality, the originality, perhaps. I know you used someone else's melody, but I compliment you on choosing it for your piece. And on your lovely singing of it. I bow to you, sir. bama smiley

Brief/Overall Comment
I like the overall production stimulates me in this version rather than the remix version better because I feel the air-spaces are required in order for this piece to breath. The collab piece is very well respective & creative however, the added synth overlays smothers the vocals (IMO).
