She's been gone just over two years now, and is missed and loved just as deeply now as ever. Shine on, you luminous soul. And thank you for the incalculable beauty you gave us.

Richard Strauss must have heard her in his dreams, and wrote all of his fantastic songs just for her. Nobody else could, and can ever perform, sing and feel those most beautiful songs better than she could. Every time I hear it, I can’t stop both smiling and crying at the same time. It feels like the most fortune to ever been able to witness such Beauty by hearing this.

I am of the belief that singing Strauss was the reason for which Jesseye Norman was born! Ms. Norman is impressive singing MOST of the classical lit., however, Norman singing Strauss? Beyond, BEYOND! Always sheer perfection. And "yes" the violinist is also very much in his element.

I have lived with the memory of this since first hearing it. It is what music making is all about. It is silence as a sound, that perfect stillness lived out through the measured motions of music. This performance is of another place, another time. It is the opening out of Eternity. An incomparably perfect moment exemplifying the breath of life beyond. Incredible!

Every musician here has caught beauty on the wing as it just drifts by like the tail end of some fantastic dream. I'm undone! This surely must be one of the most satisfying moments in music ever.

But HE has become EMMANUEL. God With Us. We could never, as created beings, forever bound in time and space exist where He is, touch Him, stand on the ground before him, so He came down to us in the very form of the creature He created, to dwell among us, His children.
