Adiemus Colores marks Karl Jenkins' return after ten years to the series that helped make his name, and it draws inspiration from the sights, sounds, colors and rhythms of Latin American music. As with the original
Adiemus, Jenkins combines classical principles with the flavors of world and ethnic music supported by lively percussion. His choral writing adopts an invented language with no meaning, like scat singing in jazz. Each movement is named in Spanish after a color and explores the mood each evokes for the composer, embracing Brazilian samba, Argentinian tango and Spanish bolero.
Adiemus Colores is scored for choir and ensemble with soloists, with a total duration of 75 minutes. Performance materials are available on hire.
