DOWNTOWN MESSIAH

Every year a wonderful singer/songwriter/musician, Richard Barone, who Jeff has interviewed, organizes an array of singers and musicians to perform a funky version of Handel's Messiah at the Bottom Line. This year, this night, he also brought the group to the remarkably restored Winter Garden, which was always, as my nephew Sam says, "awesome," but now features a view of the WTC site because of September 11th devastation.

The word peace was sung over and over, and it rose into the improbable palm trees and made the glass roof shudder.
