It's raining, and the woods are thinking of coming back. Once they break from the waning dark, ice, and thick snow, the birdsongs may return as well. May we all get to walk through the forest more often this year.



Thanks John, great find.

In memoriam, maestro.

Simple, beautiful readings of Bach,
