My hope plan for the coming year is to return to weekly blogging.
For now, to add to the celebratory nature of the season, and bid a fond an eagerly anticipated farewell to 2022, I give you this a cappella rendition of Franz Schubert’s Ave Maria.

This is a fabulous version and singing in a stairwell is a great idea! I hope you had a fabulous Christmas and I look forward to your posts in 2023. xo

Thanks, Darlene. They have quite a few recordings done in a stairwell; the acoustics are really great, I thought. Happy holidays to you and yours.
