Beautiful. Thanks for sharing, LC. I've been mourning Julia through music, also. Today I'm listening to "Ashrei Hagafrur", a vocal piece I learned in a women's chorus around 2002, right about the time I met you and Julia at MO. The lyrics are by Hannah Senesh, the Hungarian Jewish freedom fighter and holocaust martyr. How fitting that a holocaust song should give comfort.



English translation:

Blessed is the match consumed in kindling flame.
Blessed is the flame that burns in the secret fastness of the heart.
Blessed is the heart with strength to stop its beating for honor's sake.
Blessed is the match consumed in kindling flame.
