The repetitive nature of the music matches well with the constant incoming of waves.

What's your thoughts on the comparisons/contrasts between Minkowski and Immerseel? I opted for the Anima Eterna set, which pleases me quite well. But read a comparison in Gramophone that had me thinking of Minkowski's set. Wanted to pick your brain (it won't hurt) if you didn't mind.

Problem is: I don't have the Immerseel.

Then how about a comparison of the cover art? 

I saw a video of Minkowski and Co. performing the "Great", and I found it just that, perhaps I should expect the rest to be similar, also considering my high praise of their Rameau and Haydn.
Thanks, Jens.
