I think the human voice is the most beautiful instrument in the world. I think music is the highest expression of the human soul. Together they are transcendent!! Absolute beauty!

Celestial Voices - Ian

[@Marcus.Moore01]

This is the kind of sound that compels one to imagine far greater than that of modern music. To envision the melody and emotion, and extend it further beyond the vocalists themselves; to see everyone man/woman as the producer of this glory--for which we all deserve.

[@user-vi5hy2ns2g]

Celestial music

Musica Dei donum optimi trahit homines, trahit deos: Musica truces mollit animos tristesque mentes erigit. Musica vel ipsas arbores et horridas movet feras cunctisque solatia prestans.  English translation Music, the gift of the supreme God, draws men, draws gods; music makes savage souls gentle and uplifts sad minds; music moves the trees themselves and wild beasts, affording solace to all.

[@N_Loco_Parenthesis]

Thank you.

When I was doing the rounds as a freelancer In London in the early 1970s, making a good living from singing wasn't easy. I guess it's even worse now.

Film credits but no singer credits?

This is too complicated for me. Too many voices are interlacing in the same time.

absolutely superb! thank you ... 🙏🙏🙏

Ethereal.

[@thesaucegroup1877]

your lack of countertenors in the choir is extremely annoying

[@adrianwilliams6908]

Will you sacrifice your own gonads in pursuit of perfection?

[@thesaucegroup1877]

@@adrianwilliams6908 you obviously know nothing about the countertenor voice. It's the not the same thing as the castrati voice idiot

[@adrianwilliams6908]

@@thesaucegroup1877 I know plenty. I have been conducting experiments with castrati for years in my dungeon and I am a fan of the Bee Gees. You are a humourless and belligerent individual
