motet

  1. Very different and to my untrained eyes maybe just a little disturbing. Probably cause I did not know for sure what I was looking at.

  3. Beautiful--the purity of these voices moving together and against one another in piquent harmony--then combined with the visual beauty of the sculpture--becomes an elegant and utterly lovely expression of motet.

  14. Beautiful music by the renaissance Spanish composer, and the choir sounds lovely. It would have been good to see more of the holy statues. Very mystical.

  15. I agree with Diane AZ - haunting and mysterious.

  16. i am without words ---



    "Who, if I cried out, would hear me among the angels' hierarchies?
    and even if one of them pressed me suddenly against his heart:
    I would be consumed in that overwhelming existence.
    For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror, which we are still just able to endure,
    and we are so awed because it serenely disdains to annihilate us."

  18. I like the highlights if the cheek bone and the wonderful bronse gliter of the color. Beautiful vision - you brought the static into motion.

Your words are only true if I deem them to be so.
