Ave Maria

I recently stumbled upon an Ave Maria arrangement for cell by Caccini. It is simply beautiful and is probably now my all-time favorite arrangement.

Along with the theme of hymns, O God Beyond All Praising is one of my favorite hymns and although the recording isn't as good as it could be, I love this video of the choir at St. Peter's Basilica in Rome singing it. Their organ is so freaking awesome and it makes me want to visit the Vatican even more. Someday...

Well I was going to expand this post a little with updates about my job but I have to go peel garlic.
