How does music prepare us?
This video is about an orchestra preparing to play in
Carnegie Hall in New York City. My favorite part is the singer’s story. As a
child, she stood outside that hall for the first time, wishing she could be in
it. I appreciate her excitement to
have the opportunity to actually perform and sing in the hall.
Advent
Connection: A special part about this season is the music. I remember singing
in the children’s choir for my elementary school trying to remember the words
to “Silent Night”, the first song I ever had to fully remember by heart. I remember having to really pay attention
to the words as I prepared. What are your favorite songs of the Advent and
Christmas season? Which ones bring
you memories of your childhood? Which
lyrics make you pay more attention the message of Christmas and prepare our
hearts for the child King to come?
Amén.
