Inspiring Words by Alice Parker, from the Melodious Accord newsletter, July
2002
"No other art demands so persuasively that we dwell in this moment, right
here, where space crosses time, in order to create something fleeting that
we cannot make alone. Here is a positive addiction -- one that brings
blessings rather than disease, and one that makes us appreciate and value
those with whom and for whom we sing. We are most wonderfully human when we
sing together."
