It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Good points, both of you

Yes, it is ceremonial music for a very solemn ceremony, so of course it's somber and without much drama, other than the ultimate drama of its subject. I think it was meant to make people contemplative and sorrowful. It is certainly valuable music in that respect, but it does make for a loooong listening session even with superb sound.

I was only advising people to be wary. I borrowed a copy from the library (SACD with perfect playing surface--very rare!) and was glad I did. It was difficult to remove from my wish list because bits of it are strikingly beautiful. But ultimately, I wouldn't want to sit through it very often. Perhaps once per year?!

Peace,
Tom E
