Last night in Vienna

From Marlene

Music is the connection…My favorite song sung by our group is Sing Me to Heaven.

In my heart's sequestered chambers lie truths stripped of poets gloss.
Words alone are vain and vacant and my heart is mute.
In response to aching silence memory summons half-heard voices,
And my soul finds primal eloquence and wraps me in song, wraps me in song.
If you would comfort me, sing me a lullaby.
If you would win my heart, sing me a love song.
If you would mourn me, bring me to G-d, sing me a requiem, sing me to heaven.

This trip will always remain close to my heart, close to my soul, having brought me closer to heaven. Thank you Randall Svane, Dr. King...and my fellow Schola members...
