Music & religion
I think the first two songs were both Christian songs. They sounded very echo-y, and had a chorus of voices that just made me think of church music. The third song, "Ang Klung", i thought sounded like a Buddhist religious song, and that it was very spiritual, but a different kind of spiritual from the first two songs. The first two songs, "If ye love me" and "Sancte", had rounds of spirited singing, while "Ang Klung" had no words. "Raku" seemed as if it were purposely off-key, and sounded animalistic, which is why i think it might be a Hindu song. They have a God with the head of an elephant, and they say the snake is a symbol of fertility. They also think that all their Gods have an incarnation on earth, so maybe it was meant to sound like the disharmonious sounds of the earth?
