Anybody catch that Ronan Tynan was supposed to do "Ave Maria" according to other posts but did "Amazing Grace" instead? That song, haunting however it is performed, was taken to another level, IMO. Combining that with "The Mansions of the Lord" and "We Were Soldiers" theme as the recessional, this has to be the ultimate example of the use of music in a time of grief.
Mr. Tynan did sing Ave Maria. It was at the beginning.
I loved hearing him sing amazing grace..I would love to have his cd..especially with that song on it..
Ronan Tynan did sing Ave Maria at the very beginning. The best I have heard. Later he sang Amazing Grace. Good, although Amazing grace is overused.
