Sephardic "Abinu Malkenu"

Unpopular opinion: that was the last good piece of music in human history.

Here's another favorite of mine: a rendition of the popular 'Dance of Zalongo', detailing the mass suicide of various Greek women and children during a local insurrection in the region of Epirus against the Turks:

And lastly, the Nightingale Kratima. It's apparently a piece of secular Byzantine music from the 10th or 11th century:

Why is he playing that instrument with his feet?

Allmusic awarded the album with 3½ stars and its review by Richard S. Ginell states: "Recorded in a heavily reverberant Austrian monastery, the voices sometimes develop in overwhelming waves, and Garbarek rides their crest, his soprano saxophone soaring in the monastery acoustic, or he underscores the voices almost unobtrusively, echoing the voices, finding ample room to move around the modal harmonies yet applying his sound sparingly." Marius Gabriel remarked that Officium is "what Coltrane hears in heaven."
