This song has always been in the back of my mind as a project piece; it's melody line was so beautiful along with the harp, but because synthesized vocals were used, it was hard to get past a choppy feel. I decided that while I had some spare time, I would arrange a choral/instrumental rendition that did the piece more justice.
This is written for a Woman's Chorus (SSAA) with two soloists, and an orchestra's string section.

I hope you enjoy it; I certainly enjoyed making it :D

Lyrics:
Ad Idem (Of the same mind)
Ad Infinitum (Without Limit)
In Memoriam (In memory)
Cor Unum (One heart)
Vi et Armis (By force and arms)
Vale (Farewell)

My Latin translations may not be exact, but this was what I was going for:

We share one mind
Time cannot bind us
Remember
The heart we share
Now the enemy arms destroy me
Farewell

So Latin "buffs" forgive me :3

Beautiful

This is a simply beautiful piece. I love the vocals of it. Something about hearing a different language other than your native one (english for me) can make songs sound so much better.


ellebirdy23 responds:

Choral works should be in Latin in my opinion. I'm glad you liked it :D
Thanks for listening.

Justice

I think that this has really done the original proper justice. If anything this is better than the original. Great Job!

That's what I love to hear; when someone feels I've done an original justice ^_^ Thank you for reviewing.
