History

Embraceable You..Chris Botti's version


We die containing a richness of lovers and tribes, tastes we have swallowed, bodies we have plunged into and swum up as if rivers of wisdom, characters we have climbed into as if trees, fears we have hidden in as if caves.
I wish for all this to be marked on my body when I am dead......We are communal histories,
communal books. We are not owned or monogamous
in our taste or experience... -Michael Ondaatje






In a Sentimental Mood--Duke Ellington
