Quawkers, it is wonderful music, and very relaxing to listen to. When it is sung properly you can just melt away.  |

I love Taize. We often sing it during services at uni. Its such relaxing, peaceful music. Even though I'm not that religious, I still get tingles when I sing it.
My uni friends went to Taize in France a couple of years ago. They went with my music teacher and the Principal of my uni and met Brother Roger. Wish I'd been at uni when they went but they're a year ahead of me.
If you want to know more about Taize, this is the website-
