A Musical Note

You’ll want to check out these musical tidbits:

(1) Watch this YouTube video where shoppers in Macy’s are interrupted by a grand rendition of the Hallelujah Chorus, accompanied by an incredible organ. As you watch the video, you’ll notice the official singers from various Philadelphia choirs wearing a circular pin. Click HERE. With over 5 million views on YouTube, you’ve probably already seen this video.

(2) Two of my wife’s co-teachers at the Music House performed a piano duet at the end of the student recital. They did a great job and had obvious fun while performing: notice how their arms cross as they play. Watch the video HERE.

(3) For the Beauty of the Earth has been running through my mind for weeks now. Not a bad one to have stuck in your thoughts:

For the joy of human love,
brother, sister, parent, child,
friends on earth and friends above,
for all gentle thoughts and mild;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise.

For thy church, that evermore
lifteth holy hands above,
offering up on every shore
her pure sacrifice of love;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise.

For thyself, best Gift Divine,
to the world so freely given,
for that great, great love of thine,
peace on earth, and joy in heaven:
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise.
