Spooky Tooth: Ceremony
Spooky Tooth: Ceremony
I love sacred music. I got the Mozart 225 box set when it came out and I realized yesterday that I know his operas, symphonies, concertos and sonatas intimately, but I’ve never focused on his sacred music. I’m all over it lately.

Stravinsky: Mass and Symphony of Psalms
Yesterday and today I created playlists of a dozen or so different recordings of each work (two playlists) and have been listening on random play mode to them. I like listening in the way in order to quickly hear various performances, as opposed to listening to the entire work repeatedly.
But I love both works and hearing the movements bouncing around is fun for a change.
I have about a dozen Missa and just picked up on this one because it includes Waltraud Meier. Awesome! This may become my favorite Missa. I have ordered the CD.
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12

Es ist eine Stimme eines Predigers in der Wüste.

Glorious opening choruses and hymns. The arias are very good, too, not quite the JS standard, though.
