Editorial Reviews
Karl Jenkins has been composing for three decades, but it was his knack for delivering themes for TV commercials in the '80s and '90s that began his rise to wider recognition - Delta Airlines, Cheltenham and Gloucester Building Society, De Beers and Levi's Jeans amongst others - earning him many prestigious music awards. " It is perhaps for his Adiemus project for which Karl is best known, having topped both pop and classical charts around the world, its evolving nature giving it universal appeal. In recent years, Jenkins has concentrated on classical works with The Armed Man (sold over 100k in the UK) and Requiem introducing him to yet another audience, topping the Classical chart, as well as entering Classic FM's 'Hall of Fame' in the Top Ten for the last two years running as the highest position for a living composer.

A Great Sampler,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Karl Jenkins & Adiemus: The Essential Collection (Audio CD)
Here's an excellent and representative collection of Karl Jenkins' best compositions and arrangements. Buy this one first if you're still not sure you want to invest in a half-dozen Adiemus-type recordings. I predict that, if you listen to this one, you'll want more.

Jenkins' Essential Collection with Diamond music,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Karl Jenkins & Adiemus: The Essential Collection (Audio CD)
This CD is an excellent addition to anybody's musical collection. It reflects the popular famous music from TV commercials as well as other music not as well known, but equally as entertaining. All the music reflects Jenkins' ability to vary his style of music.
I have listened to this music many times.

This will Grow On You.,
This review is from: Karl Jenkins & Adiemus: The Essential Collection (Audio CD)
I first heard this on "So you Think You Can Dance" They were playing Requiem: Dies Irae which when I first heard it could not believe how powerful it was. I was lucky because they always show the title of the music at the beginning. I saw that it was Karl Jenkins and went to I- tunes and saw all of the music that he had and started listening to samples and got hooked. This particular album was an example of a great master at work. Listen to Sanctus and Palladio (1st Movement). Can you guess where you have heard Palladio. (hint: very rich) You will love both tracks. Also check out You-Tube under Karl Jenkins to see what he has. I bet you will buy his albums.
