A Week Of Gratitude – Sound
Here are five sounds that have especially gladdened my heart:
- The BBC World Service in the middle of the night when I can’t sleep. The Beeb has been my radio companion since I was a boy and the World Service has kept me good company in France, Japan and now in the States. I’m totally addicted.
- The throaty roar of a fine sports car. Especially any 12-cylinder Ferrari. No, seriously. I’m a bit of a gear-head. Intoxicating!
- Ocean waves smashing themselves against the beach. Particularly if heard from a bedroom as I’m falling asleep. Nature’s finest tranquilizer.
- Hearty laughter – both from adults and children. The laughter is different, but both kinds fill me with wild joy.
- Spem in Alium – this 40-part Renaissance motet by Thomas Tallis is the most sublime music I’ve ever heard. If the choirs of angels are this good, we’re in for a treat.
Your turn.
1. Ave Maria being sung at Midnight Mass at Christmas.
2. Crows and Blue Jays calling in the fall.
3. The call of a silent sunset echoing deep within one’s heart, “See me, know that I am present.”
4. The voice of another saying, “I love you.”
5. The crackling roar of a camp fire in a quiet night.
