Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Gather your materials now. With an upcoming move here, I'm a little behind in my post for the April composer.

At the risk of a Baroque composer O.D. I would like to recommend listening to George Frideric Handel for April.

As always, listen to what works of Handel's you can easily find, but here the four recommended works-

1-Water Music
2-Music for Royal Fireworks
3-Easter part of the Messiah
4-any instrument concerto you can find

Sounds great to us -- although Vivaldi's 4 seasons would be a good one too.....

Hey, Sarah, thank you for the suggestions. I loved Water Music as a teen. And we listened to parts of The Messiah in the car yesterday, on our way to surfing lessons.
