Denison Witmer: “For the Beauty of the Earth”
Tag: music
Astral Swans, with Dan Mangan, from the Yellow Bird Project.
I’ll draw three figures on your heart
One of them will be me as a boy
And one of them will be me
One of them will be me, watching you run
Today’s anthem.
We are moonlight, fighting for a future. We are sunlight looking for an answer.
Don’t leave me on the sidelines.
De l’éternel été
Parfaitement faits
L’un pour l’autre
Wishing today for a little Chambacú cool. High temps in metro Phoenix today and tomorrow will be around 115°F/46°C. Cumbia helps.

Ah! mio sogno! Ah! mia vita!
Ah! my dream! Ah! my life!
From the album Renée Fleming – The Beautiful Voice, 1998
“Papagena! Papagena! Papagena! Weibchen! Täubchen!” from Mozart’s The Magic Flute.
This 1965 recording was the one I first heard.
Conducted by Karl Böhm, leading the Berliner Philharmoniker. Baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau is Papageno, and Lisa Otto his Papagena. Their duet begins at 5:29 on this track.
