DOMENICA MUSICALE - BUON COMPLEANNO, MAESTRO

I would like to add my congratulations to those of a nation in wishing the composer Ennio Morricone a belated happy 90th birthday for yesterday. He appeared with the director Giuseppe Tornatore, who is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the release of Nuovo Cinema Paradiso, on tonight's Che Tempo Che Fa and there was not a dry eye in the house - nor, I suspect, in the living rooms of Italy - when this tribute was sung:

Thank you for the music, Maestro.

DONA NOBIS PACEM

In a world that seems more sadly divided than ever, this is more important than ever:

Thank you again to the wonderful Mimi Lenox for all that you do.
