I spent a few days en route to Rome to give a concert, the only time I've ever sung in Italy. I was just thinking about that trip yesterday, and of how I stumbled into a little dark Baroque church off an alley -- I will have to do some research to remember which it was -- and found a basket there with rosaries for everyone to take. I took one and still have it. I wish I had known about the Pietà then.Pentimentohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17161146891505294679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554498168264477884.post-23505929991180186632010-06-29T21:51:19.974-04:002010-06-29T21:51:19.974-04:00More on Micky White at NYTimes
