 Hello, All. I hope this is all right with the Moderator. I do not stand to profit from this. Morten Lauridsen has graciously donated an autograph score excerpt to be auctioned on eBay for the benefit of Knight Memorial Library in an economically-disadvantaged neighborhood of Providence RI. And a local framing shop ("Picture This") has donated an appropriately solemn framing job. How cool is that? The excerpt is (obviously) the first four measures of "O Magnum Mysterium." My favorite version (John Atkinson's recording of Cantus) is not on YT, so here is a not at all shabby second best. ATB, John
