Last night I missed Bach's St John Passion on the radio.
It has, IIRC, a wonderful and fearful fugue with the words
'Let his death be on us and on our children and on our childrens' children'
although curiously, when I earlier tried to find those words in John I could not.I went to a music festival instead, by the end of which I was feeling really dreadful and, as the night went on, more drunk.
I need reliable (and therefore hard) drugs if I am to to enjoy such events.Some nights ago I was listening to Messiah and the clouds across the moon formed mauve bars, and the flecked clouds above and the sea below reflected the moonlight.
It wasn't bad, with Handel in the background.
Peace to everyone.
