If you remember the Movie "Babe"...(the pig not the baseball player)

Farmer Hoggett sits down with his sheep dog and the wonder pig Babe in front of the fire and on the television there plays this heavenly peaceful piece sung by two sopranos..until the lights go out.

Here is the piece. It is by Faure, a french composer of about 120 years ago or so. It is the Cantique de Jean Racine..song of Jean Racine...

Heaven visits us at strange times. It visited Faure for long enough to write this. Words cannot describe. They simply can't. Beauty in its purest form transcends a lot of things and our ability to describe it....well it is far surpassed by mere words.
