I am going to be right up there, first in line, to be a witness to the start of something special. I want everyone to look up at the stars and see what I see. Up there is the essence of the universal sending energy and promise to all of us down here. If we could catch the hope and dreams that from those lights emanate, our lives would be fundamentally changed. How do you gather the ineffable? That’s so easy. Just open your hearts and like magic it pours in. We do it all the time but we are usually asleep when the celestial transaction takes place. Now is the time to wake up to the great moment and to make some cogent observations.
Every engagement with the infinite is the first time because every breath is new, each look is a fresh glance from eyes of never before been here views. This is because you are never the same time after time. You are a new you every single time the heavens are perceived anew. I want our music to be imbued with this dynamic. We are going to perform Haydn's MASS IN TIME OF WAR for the first time. Beyond the good audience in the seats, there will be witnesses from on high, those stars of celestial denizens that will be smiling down on us. I want them to say to themselves, "Now, this is a song sung by a communion of lives that reaches far into the infinite. Good for them.".
