"If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music.

I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music. I get the most joy in life out of music."

Forty Days (Dave Brubeck)

I found this gem, Dave Brubeck's “Forty Days,” from his Light In The Wilderness oratorio at Night Lights post, Sacred Blue: Jazz Goes to Church in the 1960s. It is performed by the Dave Brubeck Quartet.

Christ is Made the Sure Foundation (Westminster Abbey)

I heard this magnificent hymn sung in church recently and it stayed with me throughout the days ahead. I found this version on YouTube where it was sung at the Ecumenical Celebration at Westminster Abbey, September 17, 2010.
