Burke,

Were you as delighted as I to see our own Cassie Franklin listed among the singers on the soundtrack?

For those who don't know, we've watched Cassie grow up at Sacred Harp singings. She has the same kind of vocal power that one thinks of when Hazel Dickens' or Ginny Hawker's name comes up. And since she's only in her early twenties, well, I expect this to be a huge break for her...

I'm also looking forward to seeing how they use Idumea [47b]- again, the potential is huge...theater goers will hear it in essentially the hollow [more or less] square.   T
