Serious head-trip music, an electronic merger of a bell at Winchester Cathedral and a choirboy. Someone will think this is the most amazing piece of music they've ever heard. That someone could be you!   1

RIP Jonathan Harvey. So much beautiful music - this piece explains my ongoing obsession with bells.

Bells, voice, computer. A beautiful piece of work.

A classic... @jonathanharvey Horas Avolantes Numero, Mortuos Plango: Vivos ad Preces Voco (I count the fleeing hours, I lament the dead: the living I call to prayer).
