Borrowed from Anuna's Bandcamp site, a newspaper review:

"Angels high in the heavens must be confused, wondering how some mere mortal was able to bootleg one of their singing sessions and release it under the name An�na. But such confusion would be understandable after hearing Omnis, the hauntingly beautiful new album by An�na...

...Some of the works on Omnis feature the actual music of centuries past. Some of the works feature the texts of ancient prayers and poems, but with medieval-like music composed by An�na founder Michael McGlynn (perhaps �reconstructed and re-imagined� is a better way to describe McGlynn�s approach.) In either event, the voices of An�na are profoundly striking. At times this music is ethereal and soothing. At times...this music is soul-disturbing, almost chilling-like encountering a melancholy banshee at midnight on a country road, quietly singing to itself.

But don�t worry about those angels in heaven being confused - or jealous. They�ll be too charmed and mesmerized by An�na for anything other than joy for their music."
