Music… Lenten

I prefer the Julie Miller version of this song… it is a lot more raw than the cover that became a hit.

And you cannot pass up the Psalm for today.

And some Handel… I’ve chosen a less common and period performance of Handel. The alto is Hilary Summers.

In this season we should not forget. Not merely the great work of the past, but how the artists of the present have turned horror into beauty. Gorecki used a note on a wall in a German National Socialist prison, in Polish: Mother do not weep… but if this does not make you weep you are not human.

Let us do righteousness, and when confronting, do it with tears.
