Monday Night Culture

Need a break from the insanity of it all?

Biebl's Ave Maria is one of the most sublime a capella choir pieces you'll ever hear. I sang this one year in All-State back in high school, and it stirred my soul forever; I will never forget it. Chalk another one up for Western civ, and for true beauty and majesty inspired by the Christian faith.

There is no video - just put it on, close the eyes and let it take you away for a little less than 8 minutes. You won't regret it - I promise.

1 Franz Biebl's setting has long been one of my "therapy" pieces. It is sublime -- a true blessing to the soul to listen to. Thank you for the link.

2 WOW, while listening to this masterpiece, I clicked on the Mitchum ad and started playing along. Does this make me a bad person or a potential recipient from the National Endowment of the Arts? I'm having conflicting emotions.

3 Thank you for sharing such a majestic piece. I, too, sang at All State and know the difficulty of the pieces these young people tackle.

4 Rusty,
If I don't get the ISBN number for this performance, my wife will KILL me, capice? Who did this, where, and when?

Thanks,
Chris

5 Good Lt,
Sorry about the mis-attribution. I'd still like the who, why, when, and the ISBN number of the recording.
Thanks,
Chris
