Here are some that look to me to be particularly interesting:
- Jonathan Harvey: Weltethos - Weltethos is inspired by the shared spiritual heritage of humanity and founded on texts from six world religions - Confucianism, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and Christianity.
- Mittwoch aus Licht/Wednesday from Light - Stockhausen's vision for Mittwoch was "a musical expression of global harmony of love and collaboration in a united humanity."
- Arthur Bispo do Rosario - Arthur Bispo do Rosário has become one of Brazil´s hottest art exports. Yet Rosário, who spent 50 years of his life in the psychiatric ward of a hospital in Rio de Janeiro, never regarded himself as an artist: he saw his work as the fulfilment of a spiritual task. At the hospital of Colinia Juliano Moreira, he began to work creatively, believing he was on a mission from God. His works soon spread across the entire building. He lived there until his death fifty years later – everything he did and everything he made was in preparation for the Last Judgement.
- Jubilee Concert - Coventry Cathedral's Jubilee concert showcases Neil Cox's 1980 'War in Heaven' together with the Golden Jubilee commission from James MacMillan (Gloria) as a major part of the Cultural Olympiad in the West Midlands.
- How Like An Angel celebrates the beauty and grandeur of four stunning English cathedrals. Join performers and singers on a journey of discovery around these sacred spaces. Intensely beautiful music and feats of astonishing acrobatics draw you deep into a world of physical daring and soaring sound, against a backdrop of stunning architecture.
