I feel like this is possibly the definitive arrangement of "Lift Every Voice and Sing"?

From the "and now for something completely different" Christmas music files - the Missa Carolae by the late English composer James Whitbourn. It's a delightful treatment of Christmas carols set to Mass text. In dulci jubilo as the Hosanna? Oh yes.

I realize I haven’t yet listened to the JS Bach Christmas Oratorio this year. That is corrected now, and I believe I can fit in the first two cantatas before my next meeting.

Also, is it intentional or a coincdence that the hymn tune "All glory laud and honour" sounds a lot like "Belle qui..."? My internet searching is inconclusive.

One of the biggest tragedies in the classical music world is that the French composer Lili Boulanger (1893-1918) was taken from us at age 24.

Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique is an incredible (or should I say fantastique?) piece of music, but it's just so programmaticly weird. (Spoiler alert: Unrequited love leads to an opium bender, meandering toward the scaffold at the protagonist's own hanging. Yeah...weird.)

Back in Phoenix, in the midst of the long summer, I'd listen to the JS Bach Christmas Oratorio. This summer in Saint Paul, with endless heat and acutely smoky skies, an encore is warranted. This is a nice recording:

Mahler 2 is so good. Thank you, KBAQ, for a magnificent end to an Easter soundtrack. “Aufersteh’n, ja aufersteh’n wirst du—Rise again, yes, rise again!” #EJnotes
