The 2015 video of the Choir of Trinity College Cambridge performing Ēriks Ešenvalds’ “Only In Sleep” for the longest time was my favorite choral performance on the Internet but it’s at least matched now by the sublime new version by VOCES8. Bravo youtu.be/qWaDnTQJ4qQ?...

President Trump accused the Kennedy Center of being woke and anti-American, The Post's Philip Kennicott writes. But he was never invested in reprogramming, and the people he put in charge of it were inexperienced, unqualified and incompetent. wapo.st/4yIBrLG

Philip Kennicott is one of the few Washington Post columnists still worth reading after the Bezos destruction of the Post. His columns about the Kennedy Center and NSO fiasco is the stuff of tragedy. As a native Washingtonian, everything about this breaks my heart wapo.st/4xIhnZr

Closing the Kennedy Center may be the best of bad options
Renovations are welcome. But after two years, the Kennedy Center may end up right back where it started: in a self-imposed quagmire.

Fifty-seven years ago tonight, Apollo 11 left a silicon disc in the Sea of Tranquility carrying messages from 73 nations. Paul VI’s contribution was Psalm 8: “What is man that you are mindful of him?” To honor the anniversary last July, Pope Leo XIV prayed that psalm with Buzz Aldrin — over Zoom.
