El texto, relacionado con la tradición cristiana de las vigilias con candelas, es una emotiva plegaria a la Virgen María. Compositor: Albert J. Alcaraz Pastor Sainte Marie Mère de Dieu gardez moi un coeur d´enfant pur et transparent comme une source. Obtenez moi un coeur simple, que ne savoure pas les tristesses. Doux et humble sans de retour, joyeux de s´effacer dans un autre coeur. Un coeur tourmenté de la gloire de JesuChrist, bléssé de son Amour et dont la plaine guérisse qu´au ciel. Ensemble Voblana- Julio 2015- Convento de Sta Apollonia, Florencia. Director: Oscar Allen 4th Florence International choir Festival  less

Out he walks, six feet tall, twenty two years, ripped jeans, but respectable (it's Saturday after all). He's no threat he's going to cruise the shops. Along she walks with her groceries old, frail, her life hangs behind her like a snail-trail, dirty but still quite natural. Her eyes focus, she sees him: the determined stride and the baseball cap, the torn pants and his Walkman. Fearful, frightened, full of disgust and mistrust, she crosses the street, scowling like a scornful cat that's just been thrown off a lap. I felt ashamed, I felt annoyed What about trust? I just wouldn't react that way. But then, as a youth approached me I had a sudden and crucial thought. I don't want to be smashed up and I don't want to lose these things that I've just bought. So I crossed the street and silently became a product of this century.  less
