Thanks for your generosity in sharing the beautiful yarn with your subscribers! I found you about a year ago, and have learned how to keep my edges straight, and my stitches are much neater now. Thank you! Good luck in your downsizing!
This song and Et Misericordia reflect the infinite majesty and mystery of God, Heaven, and Us within Creation... Listening to this Magnificat is like imagining being the Virgin Mary looking into the infinite sky and seeing incomprehensible wonders and blessings. I know Rutter doesn't believe in Christianity, but he could have fooled me. I think God must be working through him anyway
recently i am studying to conduct this work and amazed at the greatness of every details of the composition. among the pieces, esurientes is the most moving part, by means of the messages of the text, soothing atmosphere, harmonic progression, position just before the ending, and in all aspects. thanks God for sending this genius composer to us in our era~!
