The boys who make up the vocal band Libera have been described as “normal” and “ordinary.” However, as their recordings and performances demonstrate, the music they produce is truly extraordinary. With shimmering, mystical chords and ecstatic harmonies, they are unlike any other group you have ever heard. These are truly sounds to lift the soul, celestial sounds for a new time.
The singers of Libera, who are aged seven to sixteen, attend many different local schools in South London and come from a variety of backgrounds. Although they are boys and they sing, they do not think of themselves as choirboys, but rather as an alternative kind of boy band.
While the unique sound of Libera may be impossible to pigeonhole, its universal appeal has endeared the group to fans all over the world, particularly in the US, the UK, Korea and Japan, where their CDs top the mainstream and classical charts and where they pack concert halls appearing in their trademark flowing white robes on imaginatively lit stages.

For all the blessings of the light
Keep me, O keep me, King of Kings
Beneath thine own almighty wings
Forgive me, Lord, for thy dear son
The ill that I this day have done
That with the world, myself and thee
Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise Him all creatures here below
Praise Him above angelic host
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Amen.

03년도 고참이 기타로 캐논변주곡 치길래 많이 듣던 노래라서 물어보니
캐논 변주곡 이라고
그 뒤로 휴가나 외출 나가면 게임방에서
캐논 음악을 틀곤 했지
이 노래가 가장 기억나네요
옛 추억이여... 벌써 20년이 다되어 가네요....
