Sir Karl William Pamp Jenkins, CBE (born 17 February 1944) is a Welsh musician and composer. His best known works include "Adiemus", Palladio, The Armed Man, and his Requiem.
Karl Jenkins was born and raised in Penclawdd, Gower, Wales. His mother was Swedish and his father was Welsh. Jenkins received his initial musical instruction from his father who was the local schoolteacher, chapel organist and choirmaster. He attended Gowerton Grammar School.
Jenkins began his musical career as an oboist in the National Youth Orchestra of Wales. He went on to study music at Cardiff University, and then commenced postgraduate studies in London at the Royal Academy of Music, where he also met his wife and musical collaborator, Carol Barratt. He studied with Alun Hoddinott.
Jenkins holds a Doctorate in Music from the University of Wales. He has been made both a fellow and an associate of the Royal Academy of Music, and a room has been named in his honour. He also has had fellowships at Cardiff University (2005), the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama, Trinity College Carmarthen, and Swansea Metropolitan University.
In 2008 Jenkins' The Armed Man was listed as No. 1 in Classic FM's "Top 10 by living composers".
He was awarded an honorary doctorate in music from the University of Leicester, the Chancellor's Medal from the University of Glamorgan and honorary visiting professorships at Thames Valley University, London College of Music and the ATriUM, Cardiff.
Jenkins was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2005 New Year Honours and a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 2010 Birthday Honours. In 2015 he was made a Knight Bachelor.
Jenkins is joint president of the British Double Reed Society and Patron of the International Schools Choral Music Society (ISCMS).
In 2016 Jenkins received the BASCA Gold Badge Award for his unique contribution to music.
“PALLADIO was inspired by the sixteenth century Italian architect Andrea Palladio, whose work embodies the Renaissance celebration of harmony and order. Two of Palladios hallmarks are mathematical harmony and architectural elements borrowed from classical antiquity, a philosophy which I feel reflects my own approach to composition. The first movement I adapted and used for the Shadows.” (Karl Jenkins)

I hope more of Jenkins' music will reach the Arctic soon.

Thus, the world fell in love with itself again, each player content to harmonize with another, in endless, fractal patterns of cooperation.

Эта музыка на на разрыв аорты. Гениально! Так созвучно нашему времени...

Never tire of listening to Karl Jenkins music. I have all the CDs and this Palladio has made me an addict !....never tire of it, it is mesmerising. Only wish I had a string orchestra, I would love to perform ! .

How awesome to have this song featured in the climax scene of the season 3 finale of The Morning Show last night, when Jennifer Aniston walks into the boardroom. Goosebumps!

Потрясающая музыка. И великолепное исполнение.Не могу наслушаться.Браво.

[@Timzart7]

A powerful and haunting masterpiece. I was first mesmerized by it, hearing the first movement themes in the De Beers diamond TV commercials in the 1990s. So, it got a little overplayed at that time, although it was so engaging I didn't mind, and is now underplayed and underappreciated.

[@sibarit101]

Thank you very much, I also find all of Jenkins' music to be stunning, including including this piece and his violin concerto (Sarikiz) which I posted over 6 years ago. But I don't think Palladio is underappreciated. I haven't checked, but I think it has the highest like rate on my channel.

[@janiebarker2687]

I love this ❤

[@dasabendlandprojekt8031]

Masterpiece!

[@JoshuaLo2732]

After all these years I finally found this recording! Thanks for the uploading this video!

[@sibarit101]

Thanks! I'm glad you're interested in Jenkins' wonderful music.

[@loupgarou4328]

J'avais cru que c'était du Vivaldi... Un génie contemporain, ce compositeur... Une autre oeuvre à écouter : "L'Homme armé"... Une merveille ! Pierre Boulez et les martiens de la musique sérielle n'ont plus qu'à aller se rhabiller ! ... ;-)

[@bpage4132]

I love this piece and they used this piece for the TV series called The Hotel Inspector with Alex Polizzi, as far as I remember.

[@sibarit101]

Thanks for listening and appreciating.

[@leyask4354]

Awesome masterpiece ❤ I heard many time on classic channel radio , but always been interest whom is that genius composer which created this magnificent music ❤❤❤❤

[@sibarit101]

Thank you, I'm very glad you liked it! All music by Karl Jenkins (R.I.P.) is awesome! The more I listen to it, the more I enjoy it!

Thank you for letting us hear this beautiful performance: London symphony+ the composer himself conducting! great sound too.

[@sibarit101]

Thank you too!

[@jovetj]

This is still my favorite Jenkins composition. And the end of the first movement is still breathtaking to me!

[@joansutton]

Incredible beauty.

Many thanks!

These are no doubt stressful times, we all need force, even if it is given to us through music. Thank you! Be well and stay safe!

Terribly amazing 💗🔥⚡

[@claudialopez-ue4lv]

Es una belleza de pieza musical

[@pmmdrt]

I did not knew the composer, from the same year as I, he from February and I from June. Happely not a modern but lovely work. I dislike composers as Stockhousen. Thanks again for this nice work in difficult times. Love from Rotterdam!

[@sibarit101]

I'm glad you liked it. A time ago I listened to all his music and I was very impressed. (his music made me look for other contemporary composers and so I "discovered" the music of the Polish composer Wojciech Kilar (he died in 2013), I also listened to it all, I liked it so much!) When you will have time, please look for one of my first postings: Karl Jenkins - Sarikiz (Concerto for violin and orchestra) with Marat Bisengaliev playing the violin. I think it is very good work and you might like it too. Thanks as always for your friendship and for your comments.

My God, Karl Jenkins doesn't look like that now!! :-)

[@sibarit101]

Dear David, this is the photo that appears on the album. I know he has aged, like all of us, unfortunately... :) But his music doesn't age, does it?

[@DavidA-ps1qr]

@@sibarit101 You're so right Sibarit. It just took me completely by surprise! I just had to have a giggle. Palladio is an early work and we all know Jenkins has written so many better things than that. But it was still nice to hear. Thank you. I expect Karl was pleased that you put his photo up too. Ha Ha. P.S.I know you're a Jenkins fan, have you heard Cantata Memoria?

[@sibarit101]

@David A Yes, David, I'm a Jenkins fan. I listened to almost all his recorded music, but not Cantata Memoria. I'll look for it and listen to, thank you. Similarly, among contemporaries I listened to almost all the music of the Polish composer Wojciech Kilar. Both are very, very talented composers and each of the two is unique in its own way.

[@DavidA-ps1qr]

@@sibarit101 It was written in 2016 to commemorate a tragedy in Wales that took place 50 years ago in the small town of Aberfan, A colliery spoil tip above the village collapsed and 40,000 cubic meters of mining debris slid down the hill and finished up burying a Junior School, killing over 100 children and 20 or so adults. It's scored for bass-baritone - soprano - choir and orchestra.

Antonio Vivaldi - Tango Of The Death

[@strelov1520]

This is the best record of Palladio I could find, but violin from time to time goes a bit ahead of alt, and conductor/composer doesn't keep straight pace which is sounding annoying. Out of mentioned below, I adore 3-rd part. Listening 2-nd wee in row

[@sibarit101]

Thanks for listening.

[@gerardmanvussat728]

La pub il faut la supporter c est la règle d un jeu économique auquel nous sommes soumis. De là à couper un morceau musical par une propagande inattendue montre à quel point l auditeur de YT ainsi que l auteur de l oeuvre sont méprisés. C est d une violence insupportable....

[@sibarit101]

Tu as parfaitement raison. C'est une des raisons pour lesquelles je ne poste plus, je ne supporte pas les publicités qui interrompent la musique. Je considère cette façon de traiter la musique, les compositeurs, les interprètes et les auditeurs comme un affront à la culture. De plus, youtube annule ainsi mes bonnes intentions de partager de la musique moins connue...
