[@jenniferhiemstra5228]

I clearly need listen to more Dan Forrest...I'm not overly familiar with his stuff, but I haven't heard anything I DONT like from him yet, this a delightful treat for my ears 🥰🥰🥰

Great voices

Is this based on the story of Ruth, on what she said to her mother-in-law?

[@Middlesex1957]

Yes. It is an incredible story of "love makes a family" . This choral setting is stunningly beautiful. The story itself challenges peoples' outrageously distorted priorities that elevate authoritarianism and it's absolutist rule worshipping instead of embracing love, devotion, compassion, co operation and collaboration. A wise person once claimed that, "The laws are made to serve people. People aren't made to serve laws." In another of his biographies a different author claimed he took it back. Sigh. Crappy writing. That's okay - better examples abound.

B1♭? Can a choir even sing that low? 😮

[@josu1961]

Yes haha, that took me off guard since I'm a bass and I've never gone so low in my life hahah

[@afonsodeportugal]

@@josu1961I guess Mr. Forrest must have some really freakish singers in his choir! And I don't mean freakish in a bad way! 😅

[@josu1961]
