EVERY BLADE OF GRASS A FLOWER

To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.
William Blake -- Auguries of Innocence

And more...

It is also interesting to me to open two windows and play it at the same time as the same tune in you-tube is playing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8qg_0P9L6c
. . . starting at slightly different times of course -- the same tune overlaid on itself.
... Anyway, thanks for sharing this music that helps us feel the sacredness of each tone, each moment; 8:39 PM

About Robert Brother's post.

Only Bobcat would look at a blog post with three videos and proceed to play two of them at the same time...

Miss you,

Miss u 2.

I believe that you misunderstood Bobcat's two-video suggestion. The link he gives at youtube is identical to the 3rd video in my post. I believe that he is suggesting a sort of two window "echo effect" with two playings of the same video with a small delay.

Given the extraordinary minimalist quality of the Arvo Part composition, such an audio overlay might indeed produce an interesting effect. Perhaps, it's worth a try.

hugs,
