I thought the first two songs, "If Ye Love Me," and "Sancte" were both Christian because of the intense harmonization and choir-like feel. In both pieces the voices moved together in that they softened in the same places and got louder in the same places. It was like these multiple people were trying to get the same message across which was cool. I'm no gonna try to judge where they're both from so I'll go with Europe as a general area...
The third song, "Ang Klung," I thought had a very asian feel. The instruments seemed to be predominantly percussion, with the xylaphone and bells. I'm gonna say it was Buddhist music because of where I think it's from.
The last song, "Raku" sounds very animalistic. I agree with a lot of the posts that there was a part that sounded a lot like an elephant. Thus, I think it either hails from either Africa or Southeast Asia. I think it is Buddhist just judging by location, but I also strongly agree with the idea that it's Hindu because of the natural feel.
