I heard the song that Bjork did on this album at the Elles:Pompideau exhibit at the Seattle Museum of Art show this year. The song accompanied a slide show of Nan Goldin photographs and was my favorite piece in the exhibit. The rest of the album is fantastic, a must for fans of modern classical music.

Sur ce disque, 2 choses particulièrement intéressantes : l'oeuvre écrite pour Bjork (oui, l'artiste "pop-rock") et enregistrée par elle-même bien sûr : un très très beau moment d'intense émotion. Puis l'interview du compositeur sur sa vie, son oeuvre... Petit bémol : il faut bien comprendre l'anglais... et l'interview est longue !
What a superb presentation, a great collection of music including the sublime 'Song for Athene ' along with the World Premiere of ' Prayer of the Heart ' featuring Bjork. The interview section of disc two is rather special, full of interesting stories. John Tavener is a gentle soul and comes across as an egoless gentleman, I thoughly enjoyed hearing him speak. This two disc set comes in a slip-clase and full 68 page booklet, and at very resonable price this must be the Classical bargain of the year !. This music moved me to tears... truly beautiful. Dont miss this.
