Probably Tanzanian folk song with added words written in 1940s with extra verses added in late 1950s. Made famous by Miriam Makeba in early 1960s. the young Man sings: "Angel, I love you. What should I do? I don't have any money. I would marry you if I did." This outdoor perforMance was the culmination of a six-week project which creates a choir from scratch for one night only. Each winter and summer, Chris Rowbury gathers a random bunch of singers from in and around Ipswich. there are no auditions and all songs are taught and learnt by ear. Usually eight songs are learnt in six two-hour sessions and in the summer are performed outdoors near Ipswich. http://chrisrowbury.com  less

'In Lucem' is a song of hope and love. the emotional lyrics are inspired by the biblical book of Job, the Man who lost everything he had. We are providing a translation of the Latin lyrics below. In Lucem You will forget your sorrow. You will be happy, you will clothe yourself in light. Your sadness will be made a vague memory. We will shout and sing and reap in joy. We will laugh again, we will love again. Our sadness will be like a river Traveling across the earth, flowing into the ocean. You will forget your sorrow. You will be happy, you will clothe yourself in light.  less

To have control over something matterless, we control it with the knowledge about it and thus gain power over it. the almost sinister thought “I'll tell you. You're young, but you're one of us, and I'm one of us, so I'll tell you.” gives the Toxic Psalms its tone. For in the background of the whole concert arch death utters and murderous plague intones. Through the music the project reflects Palestine, Syria, Pussy Riots, weapons, concentration camps, blood feuds, extinctions, contaminations of religions and creates a picture of huMan brutality. the living of a Man is changed into a drama here and now: men killing for the glory of their psalms. the author’s poise is not one of an agitator – awaking the feeling that “something has to be done” – it is rigorously contemplative.

So I thought: it's about time I brought the ideas together :-)
