Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Although I was a church organist in a Pentecostal Church for 11 years, a founding member of a Christian Rock Band for seven, and a composer of Contemporary Christian Music, I have come to enthusiastically appreciate the venerable old liturgical music. Everything from Palestrina to Bach, from Handel to Rachmaninoff (he set the “Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom to music). (Notice that all branches of Christendom are included!)

I really like Verdi’s Requiem, and Mozart’s too, even though they are probably considered “Concert” works rather than “Sacred Music”.

When I shuffle off this mortal coil, I would love to have the guys get together and perform Verdi’s requiem at my funeral, but I may have to settle for a recording of Susan Boyle singing “Amazing Grace”. LOL.

Oh well...that’s nice too.
