...entire Tanglewood Festival Chorus, directed by John Oliver; the PALS (Performing Artists at Lincoln School) Children's Choir, directed by Johanna Hill Simpson, and organist James David Christie joined in the Te Deum for a sweeping, magnificent performance. Mr. Christie's skillful organ playing added a lovely tone to the entire work. The children's choir was adorable, and sang with great enthusiasm. Overall, this was an excellent concert, and kudos go to all musicians involved in bringing Berlioz's music to life...
...being in the White House is that it's so hard to get out of it, to know what is going on out there in America and to benefit from unfiltered common sense. And so when his Georgetown University hallmate David Matter complained in September about the way the organ-donor system allocates livers for transplant, with people in one city waiting months while patients elsewhere can expect them in less than two weeks, the Department of Health and Human Services was ordered to take a new look at who should get to the top of the list. Last spring...
...parents' rented car, his family reacted in a stunningly gracious manner. In a move which won them Italy's highest civil honor, the Greens donated their son's heart, liver, kidneys and pancreas for transplant, saving seven lives and securing their place in the affections of this organ donor-poor country.

At that time, I would have empathized with those who advocate surgeon-assisted suicide. Even today...
...left panel depicts a moment of revelation, the epiphany of a young career. The youth crowned like a king gazes through the thick black mullions of a window into a vision outside, of a blind organ-grinder making celestial music for a choir of angels. It is a version of the dream of unmediated childhood vision in the work of William Blake, "the noble English genius," as Beckmann called him, "a superterrestrial patriarch." It also represents the starting point of Beckmann's lifelong quest as a painter, his quest for the self, "the great veiled mystery of the world...
