Music has always been able to move me in a way that almost nothing else can - in a way that's different from love or prayer or theatre... it grabs me deep at the bottom of my soul.
In times of extreme confusion or frustration, fear or excitement, sorrow or joy - music is the only way that I can seem to fully express myself. It's either that someone before me has already said it better, or that words are not even a sufficient way to express what I'm feeling - so I resort to music, which has always been a great comfort to me.
It's the soft & powerful voice of Dar Williams, the overwhelming & soothing Carmina Burana, the solo & genius piano playing of Bruce Hornsby, the intricate harmonies of Handel.
Oh! It's all so GOOD.
