[Magdalen] Rutter's Requiem

[Jim Handsfield]

My whole internet, tv, VoIP phone went out earlier today (tech coming in the morning) so I'm using my cellular connection. 

I'm listening to Requiem by John Rutter which I love and am moved by every time I hear it.  This performance is by the Cambridge Singers with Rutter conducting.  It's about the only piece he has written that wasn't commissioned - he wrote it as a response to his son's murder and I can sense how personal it is.  

I'm also thinking of Marcy and so I'm feeling sad and melancholy.
