I tried e-mailing a link, but it wouldn't go through.  So I'm just sending
the message to Google "Too Hot to Handel," a gospel, jazz rendition of The
Messiah.



The son of one of my dear since-childhood friends was the guest bass player
(Mike Pope) at this jazz production of Handel's Messiah this past week in
Baltimore with the Baltimore Symphony and with Morgan State University
Choir.  Wish I had known it earlier.  I don't think the sound track is
available yet. Ann, my friend,  called it "still proprietary" which I think
means that.  She was thrilled with how the music and the translation
blended.  Anyway, thought we could add that data to our Messiah conversation
and also watch for its performances in different areas.   Wonder if Louise
Ballard heard it?
