last night's rehearsal

Some of the fugues in the Bach B min Mass are so lacework-intricate, I feel as if I could stare at them for hours, trapped in contemplation--not that you can stare at the sounds of music, of course, but...oh, never mind. Fugues with the intricacy of lacework, though, that part's true. Not just one line with all the frills and furbelows, changing

Oo, Arvo Part! (I only know about him because my son the Philosopher is a bit of a choir geek, too.) That does sound like an exciting program!

Along with Bach, Part is my favorite composer.

Every time you post about the B minor Mass, I have to listen to it again.

Curse you and your playlist influencing ways!
