Sometimes , performances speak for themselves.
So it is with this video of the stunning German pop artist, Helene Fischer, whose voice , when applied to Franz Schubert’s Ave Maria, is a rare tribute by anyone in the entertainment community, to the waning traditions of European Christianity.
Though she is not an operatic singer, her tone and clarity are striking, which helps to make this gorgeous liturgical music more accessable to this public audience.
Such a lovely and talented lady.
