On the morning of
the first Sunday in Advent,
the sky hidden behind high fog and snow clouds,
a father and child walk on Michaelerplatz past
the passage way leading to Habsburgergasse
in the Michaeler Durchhaus
The church already filled to the last pew
and high mass with a performance
of Antonín Dvořák's Mass in D major will
commence any moment

Your last photo makes me want to be there to listen and watch! Wonderful.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love those vaulted ceilings like in the church. Wow.
ReplyDeleteMerisi, I marvel at the quiet elegance of your first photograph and then try to imagine the beautiful music filling the church you show in the next picture. Isn't this a fine time of the year?
