Looking to our roots

Date: June 27, 2009

The recent deaths of Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett has many people in the world looking backwards to some of their earlier roots - some musical, some not as musical.

In this post, ChoralGirl traces her musical development and features a video of Rene Clausen conducting his "Set me as a seal."

Wow! A standard setting performance of a great American Masterpiece!

Actually, this is Rene Clausen's piece but not him conducting. This is David Cherwien conducting the Minneapolis-based National Lutheran Choir. I sing with this ensemble.

Oops. It looked like RC to me.

Either way, this is how choral music should be rendered.

I think David would take that as a huge compliment:)
