Ecce Cor Meum, Latin for Behold My Heart, reached no 2 in the classical album charts in the US and won Best Album at the Classical Brits.
Ecce Cor Meum - an Oratorio in four movements and scored for choir and orchestra - was Paul McCartney's fourth classical album and was released in September 2006. The album was more than eight years in the making and its origins follow in the historic tradition of composers that have been commissioned to write music for the world-renowned Magdalen College, Oxford. Paul was specially invited by Anthony Smith (President of Magdalen College 1998 – 2005) to compose a piece to commemorate the opening of a new concert hall at the college. Following Linda's death in 1998, however, the performance was delayed, eventually premiering in 2001, with a studio recording taking place in 2006. Each of its four movements begins with unaccompanied voices, and the text combines both English and to a lesser degree, Latin.
