The Artform Of Remembrance

One of the cultural highlights of the year, unquestionably
(as far as we here on the TLB Prime Network, and on S.A.S.A.O.A. more particularly, are concerned!) has got to be this one right here:

If you missed this concert - you missed something tremendous indeed! As reviewed here and on other blogs throughout this network of ours...

The Russian diva sang divinely well on that evening.

She even wrapped up this Basilique Notre Dame marquee concert with her rendition of "O Canada"! Remembering in what country she was - sublime!

What touched this particular audience member here was when she talked in-between two songs - likening the souls of the dead soldiers from World War I and onwards to birds flying through the skies above us - ever present, ever out of reach, all at once. Beautiful. And so true.

Remembrance was never so well-served as on that night, truly.

Bravissimo!
