Beautiful Lullaby

My sister-in-law Liz, with her angelic voice, sings a beautiful rendition of Hush Little Baby. The "refreshing" lyrics, as Liz appropriately calls them, engage the baby with "natural wonders and beauties" instead of promising material gifts. Download the song here.

Nimrod

While running errands the other day I heard a piece of music that has become my new classical favorite. It was so beautiful that I had to stay in the car in the parking lot for several moments after the piece ended just to reluctantly come back down to earth.
