In "Monteverdi and the Marvellous: Poetry, Sound and Representation," @RoseenGiles of Duke Music examines how the composer skillfully used the musical language of his time to evoke "meraviglia" - a desirable but elusive quality in artistic achievement: https://t.co/jZ8IB55yvu

I performed the most beautiful wedding yesterday but we had a visitor and it was WILD 🧵 :

Right after the congregational question we honored / remembered the groom’s father. At that moment a squawking bird swooped in and sat in an empty chair toward the front. A lady screamed!

The last Christian country in the Middle East is about to be obliterated. The ethnic cleansing of Christians from the lands of their birth is not far from completion.

Not only will the West do nothing, we are likely not even to notice.

Is your home looking bare and empty after taking down the Christmas tree?

Hang up your hoods and robes for academic decoration all year round 👍

He cut a large wedge of red cheese, arranging it on a platter with some salad, button mushrooms, and a farl of warm crispy bread.

[Redwall Feasts Bot @RedwallFeasts]

The hare was on his fourth bowl of autumn salad with herb cheese and rye bread. Between salads he had demolished a number of blueberry tarts, a carrot 'n' turnip pasty with gravy, and a huge portion of fruit and almond trifle topped with meadowcream.
