My Latin teacher in school has asked us to do a project on a roman emperor – my friend and I have been given Claudius. The teacher, M. Moutard, wants us to do something original, so we’ve decided to make a short video clip of us, and my friend’s sisters to help, dressed as Romans (me as Claude, the sisters as the wives…) and my friend as a TV presenter, so that she can ask me (Claude) questions about my/his life.
We’ve finished it now, but we’d like to put some music on it. We’ve listened to thousands of tracs in the past few days, and nothing seems to fit. Slow music seems too boring for a TV show but anything fast or with too strong a beat doesn’t fit in with the roman thing.
Any suggestions will be very appreciated!!!

Have you tried Adiemus, by Karl Jenkins ? It’s choral, so no modern instrruments, kinda majestic. It is on You tube and there are lots of sites. The group is caled Adiemus and their first CD is called Songs of Sanctuary. Apparently it means "we will draw near."
Hope this helps

Formal fiddleback chasubles and modest Franciscan sandals come together in the Extraordinary Form of the Mass (Traditional Latin Mass) at Our Lady of Guadalupe Friary of the Franciscans of the Immaculate. The video is put to beautiful music from the Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate, our sister order. The music was recorded in Italy and is a fine example of the high quality of their music which, combined with the friars in Italy, are playing a major part in spearheading the reform of liturgical music in Italy.
