Classical Music Album

[Atelier]

I listened to an album a couple of years ago but can't remember its name or its composer.

It was choral music and each track was titled in Latin, translated to things like "Blessed are the poor" and "Strong are the holy". Things like that. I'm pretty sure there was also ones dedicated to the sick and the hungry.

Anybody have any idea what this could be? The composition itself is quite contemporary I think.

Only thing I could think of was Handel's Messiah, but that's just a vague guess and obviously not contemporary!  Hopefully someone more knowledgeable about modern classical music will have an idea.

maybe it helps translating these phrases/titles back to latin and searching the internet with these term.

Thanks selmiak and CaptainD. I found it!

Initially I thought Karl Jenkins was the composer. Well, I strongly recommend it to anybody who wants to listen!

Wow that's so relaxing!  I can see (well, hear) why you thought it might be Karl Jenkins btw.  I'm not really very well versed with modern classical composers, but I know and like some of his - particularly these two pieces. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kTffgdNhNw
