March 30: My life goes on in endless song… “How Can I Keep From Singing?” written by Robert Wadsworth Lowry, adapted by Pete Seeger and sung here by Enya.
Happy Birthday and thanks for the song suggestion to Barbara Bayers, Bedford Junior High choral teacher (and cheerleading advisor!) who has encouraged countless people to sing in harmony with others. I’m forever grateful for her inspiration and support of my efforts to change careers and become a teacher. xoxo

March 28: O strength of Wisdom… “O Virtus Sapientiae” One cannot recognize Women’s History Month with music and not celebrate Hildegard Von Bingen. Here is a 20+ minute video of her songs sung by Vocatrix and another song about her called “Für Hildegard von Bingen” by Devendra Banhardt SPOTIFY WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH PLAYLIST
O strength of Wisdom
who, circling, circled,
enclosing all
in one life-giving path,
three wings you have:
one soars to the heights,
one distills its essence upon the earth,
and the third is everywhere.
Praise to you, as is fitting,
O Wisdom
