Italian opera...

...is making me almost cry this morning. Andrea Bocelli's version of Nessun Dorma is almost heart stopping. (you can find it online if you like, or you probably have a copy of it) But, then,  turn the volume up as loud as you can, step outside where the air is so crisp and smells so fresh it stings your eyes with wonder, and listen with your eyes closed...

In wonder of music and the gift of hearing and notes and melodies today.
 A dream would be, to sit in the center of something like this during Beethoven's piano concerto no 5 "Emperor"- II...
