Singing in Harmony with Heaven

A Time to be Silent, a Time to Shout

Paul Jernberg Season 1 Episode 13

Under the Pope's strictest orders for silence, the great Egyptian obelisk was being carefully moved to the center of St. Peter's Square. But as the ropes began to fray and monument began to sway, the simple words shouted out by a sailor averted disaster and merited a great reward. We too, in our quest for the renewal of sacred music, need to know when to be silent and when - and what - to shout out.
