Just finished rewatching Selma. I needed a reminder today of what our nation has been, and more importantly, what it can be, when people of integrity and courage speak up, and stand up for what is right.

Can we all agree that Louise Alder is currently the best soprano there is for Haendel?

The music for the ceremonies at the Capitol in honor of President Carter has been beautifully chosen and performed. From the US Naval Academy Glee Club singing the Naval Hymn, to the brass ensemble playing Mon coeur s’ouevre a ta voix, it has all been of the highest caliber.

I love the Naval Hymn. “Oh hear us when we cry to thee for those in peril on the sea.”

Watching as President Jimmy Carter is eulogized in the Capitol rotunda. What a model for whom we should all strive to be.
