Hello everyone. I am in desperate need of some help. I am trying to find music that runs along the lines of this post's subject. First, let me give examples so that, if you wish to hear a sample to hear for yourself, you can:

1. the anime "Macross Plus"
Original Soundtrack, Volume 2
Track 12
"A Sai En"
Performed by the Raiche Courtev sisters

2. in the anime "Gasaraki"
in the scenes where the boy is performing dance-like rituals, there is chanting-type music played

To describe, as best I can, this music is vocal. At times, accompanied by instruments, but not many. There are indeed lyrics and words. I think this type of chanting is used for ceremonial settings, as in the dancing example of Gasaraki.

Beyond that, I have no other information. Please, if anyone can offer some help, I would greatly apprfeciate it.
