Have fun with today’s CG puzzle.
Today is a very special “Marvelous Monday” for me. I am at a week-long 🎶Music🎶 festival/workshop. And I want you all to participate in an experiment. Listen to the following two-minute sound file, all the way through, with your eyes closed, and tell me what it makes you feel deep down in your soul. Be serious with your answers, (well everyone except Magnum44 who is exempt from that rule for obvious reasons 😉). I will share your answers with my group this evening. You can private message your answer if that will be more comfortable for you.

Well, Apple, to be honest, listening to Gabriel’s Oboe, instilled really nothing special in me other, than it is a gentle song that describes gentle, unassuming people like you, who have big hearts and big smiles when they get up and when they go to bed....
So, I went ahead and looked it up and found out that it’s a piece written by Ennio Morricone for the movie The Mission, which I’ve never seen.
Jeremy Irons plays Father Gabriel.
Here’s the scene.

When you watch it, then you really the soothing effect the piece has.
.....the soothing effect the piece has, and also from listening to it the second time, you actually pick up the haunting and soulful melody.
Now, you got me wanting to listen to it again, and watch the movie.
I will add too, that I think the tune, will ignite emotions differently with age. In your later years, like I’m in, it’s tranquillity, calm, Christ-like, without conflict that we want.
I think Trump should play this before his rallies, and for sure before addressing the media.
Your 2 minute music score makes me want to go for a walk in the woods.
Well, I thought of Monk walking the beach with Trudy’s daughter, whom he had just recently met. Sundance played the Monk series today, and I had just watched the last 2 episodes.
