^^ so envious you and Sean got to go to a concert together today.... and that's beautiful music you're listening to!

I'm rushed off my feet here... working 13 hours in 14 today; and no doubt long ones again tomorrow.. so, very little music or posting opportunities, I'm afraid...

hope everyone has a good Easter however!

Your spare time will come soon enough and be all the more sweet for your current efforts.
Save some of your energy for listening to some music later and subsequently posting Jared!

This is a beautiful, gentle work. The soprano singing is really beautiful and very clear toned.

Beethoven: Christ on the Mount of Olives.
you know Fergus, I have never even heard of this piece... is it an Oratorio? Would you say its of a good standard, in terms of Beethoven's output?
