I am a HUGe fan of mostly non-religious choral music. I also like there to be other instruments appart from the voice. What are some great songs and great albums (such as the one from Les Choristes, the french film)? |

You can find recordings of familiar choral selections from operas, many of which are well known and popular even among non-operagoers. They're usually accompanied by a full orchestra. Archae0pteryx |

The song 'Once upon a battle of life and death' from the Album 'Chronicles of life and death (Death- art version)' by Good Charlotte is a pretty good song though its more opera like rather than normal choral. Check it out anyways. Also the song Listen to the Rain is something u might like. |

The Kings singers have recorded some brilliantly entertaining party pieces, close harmony choral pieces, mainly barber shop mens voice stuff, but not many of these include instruments. Howvever, there are lots of large scale works out there by well known composers. Most are in fact sacred pieces but I would recommend the beautiful Symphony no. 3 by Gorecki, Polish composer who you may have heard of. It is a mainly orchestral piece but with a gorgeous soprano voice on top of some of the movements, listen to it in bed, it's beautiful. British and american composers such as James Macmillan, Jonathon Dove and others have composed folk song based choral works that are really nice too. They are pretty easy to get hold of on compilation cds. Check it out, do an internet search. Good luck. |
