Blackbird is probably one of the most beautiful song ever written, composed by Paul McCartney, featured on the Beatles’ White Album in 1968.
Here is a live version by the extraordinary Jacob Collier, a young British prodigy: multi-instrumentalist, singer, performer, composer, arranger, producer, he brilliantly demonstrates how a true artist and his audience can experience together a real moment of musical communion.

Laudate Dominum is a Christmas carol that starts with the psalm 130, De profundis, which is sung for the second vespers of Christmas, and expresses the cry of the Christ, descended on earth, to his Father. It is followed by a tenor aria with some lyrics from the Gospel of Luke (2, 10), when the angel comes to announce the birth of Jesus. It is finally concluded by a very long fugue on the Psalm 117, Laudate Dominum Omnes Gentes, used as an antiphon during the Christmas liturgical time.
