Palestrina wrote some of the best music in the Western Tradition. After hearing his work, my favorite instrument has changed to the human voice. This man must have had a vision of beatitude or something. Never have I ever heard such fabulous music, such pure, marvelous music. Listen to it! We sing it in Chorus at St. John's.
Sicut Cervus desiderat ad fontes aquarum, ita desiderat anima mea ad te, Deus.
As the deer panteth for the water, so my soul longeth for Thee, O Lord.
