10:42a Corpus Christi Carol
www.KaitlinElizabeth.ca
Me singing Corpus Christi Carol:
The lyrics to this song are very poetic and beautiful:
Lully lullay, lully lullay, The faucon hath born my mayke away.
He bare hym up, he bare hym down, He bare hym into an orchard brown.
In that orchard ther was an hall, That was hanged with purpill and pall.
And in that hall ther was a bede, Hit was hanged with gold so rede.
And yn that bed ther lythe a knyght, His wowndes bledyng day and nyght.
By that bedes side kneleth a may, And she wepeth both nyght and day.
And by that bedes side ther stondith a ston, "Corpus Christi" wretyn theron.

I was quite sick in this video. I had a very sore throat. I can tell there were some parts I was really struggling to keep it up haha.
As a bonus, here is a photo of my singing teacher, Brian Powers Smith, and I. He is a former tenor from Opéra de Montréal and has a lifetime of musical experience both performing and teaching under his belt. He is retiring this January after being music director at my church for 47 years, but he will continue to teach privately. I would be nowhere without this man. I am extremely grateful I have had the opportunity to be his student.

Thanks for listening!

Think of a female Leonard Cohen, a splash of Billie Holiday, a splash of Lucinda Williams, with a twist each of Tom Waits, Johnny Cash, and Bessie Smith, and you have an Inky Glass.
"Raw and Unadulterated" says Brian Ball of Women's Radio Music Review
"Inky Glass has a unique sound with an amazing voice that fans of Blues & Folk music will find refreshing. She makes music from the heart and soul that is full of passion and energy." ISAAC DAVIS JR. BGS MBA , JUNIOR'S CAVE ONLINE MAGAZINE (SEP 16, 2009)
As of 1/15/10 you can pour yourself an Inky Glass of MISS FIT; Inky's Debut solo album-featuring 8 of her original to the bones blues!

12:08a Rabbis in opera
Just wondering what opera might have a rabbi among the cast of characters. The only two I can think of are Halevy's La Juive and Mascagni's L'Amico Fritz. Can anyone fill out the list?
