Music to die to

A few posts back we were discussing music that might be appropriate for your final moments. A dear friend who very nearly died* claims he heard the music of Celtic Women while floating over the world.

I always thought I would hear something like this, the Sad Songs from Gorecki's Third Symphony: my favorite music performed at the most terrible place on earth.


*the doctors couldn't believe he even made it to the emergency room, much less survived the whole affair.

Ah, Gorecki. Beautiful. Beauty in the heart of darkness.
