a comforting sound

senior year of college, my friend in the chemistry department (the only one!) assumed musical directing responsibilities of the women's slavic chorus. of course i went to her concerts. she was very talented, both as a director and a singer.

this is one of my favorite songs in their repertoire -- i can't remember (or tell since the internets aren't arriving at a consensus) whether this is a macedonian or bulgarian tune, but it's lovely regardless! it's also has many more memories attached to it, not least of which is a beautifully moonlit drive in connecticut several years ago.
