TEXT
Dormi, Jesu! Mater ridet,
Quae tam dulcem somnum videt,
Dormi, Jesu! blandule!
Si non dormis, Mater plorat,
Inter fila cantans orat
Blande, veni, somnule.
Sleep, sweet babe! my cares beguiling:
Mother sits beside thee smiling;
Sleep, my darling, tenderly!
If thou sleep not, mother mourneth,
Singing as her wheel she turneth:
Come, soft slumber, balmily!

Today I have learned that Phil Spector has died. I apply this song to him. He was the inventor of 'the wall of sound'.

[@so_phster]

Do you by any chance have any other videos from this concert? I’m asking as a former Wells chorister who sang in this concert, and would desperately love to see more footage!

[@ChorGesang]

Just have a look on the official channel: www.youtube.com/@wellscathedral1405

[@so_phster]

@ I’ve seen all those. Do you have any from this specific concert?

[@ChorGesang]

@ Yes for sure, but we are not able to share or publish the concert. Sorry!
