Every year, Chanticleer , an all-male a cappella group, sings in front of the Christmas tree in the medieval sculpture court at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I was able to go last Thursday and had the most fun at a concert that I’ve had in a long time, maybe ever. The concert was a mix of western and eastern sacred music, with a flourish of spirituals at the end. Biebl’s “Ave Maria” served as an encore and is below for your viewing pleasure.
While I have you, can I ask you something? I’ll be quick.
Twenty-five thousand people subscribe to First Things. Why can’t that be fifty thousand? Three million people read First Things online like you are right now. Why can’t that be four million?
Let’s stop saying “can’t.” Because it can. And your year-end gift of just $50, $100, or even $250 or more will make it possible.
How much would you give to introduce just one new person to First Things? What about ten people, or even a hundred? That’s the power of your charitable support.
