Thank you for that lesson, which, of course led me to look up Fessenden. Fascinating man.
I love all of the learning opportunities I get courtesy of so many smart FReepers.

Love all you opera lovers who sound like you are or were on East Coast.
My mother, born 1913 grew up in Morenci, Arizona. Her father born in Italy, wound up the Victrola every morning and played opera to wake up the kids for school. In the boonies.
This is my favorite Christmas song. Thank you for sharing this beautiful version.
Here is another one that I like, not quite as powerful but it’s in English :). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDmTqaQnlBU
