Very nice work. Thank you.

Oh, mr. Nishimura you are so genius!!! ❤

i think...it's stunning...in my mind it's an image of whole universe , story of every creature's life, every single being, every single piece of the world like they are gathering and forming as the sound of the music goes on

I love this music. But it's not really a canticle, is it? I mean, who chants like this? Maybe extraterrestrials, but not Earthlings.

The word "雅歌(Ga-ka)" translated as "Canticle" is not necessarily accurate, but what you mean gets the point well. Try some 雅楽(Ga-gaku), and you'll find this work also related to Japanese ancient court music.

...inspired by Ligety?

Or by Niculescu ?
