Music

UPDATE 2/11/26    I was thinking the music over while reading the Word. It occurred to me to write some music to the Psalms. Then I thought that the section of the Libretto that deals with the three churches that are represented by Saul, David & Solomon, could actually use the Psalms of David and even the Song of Solomon or Proverbs.     So, I am directing this to the musician who will commit to writing the music for A&O.
