music of the stars

I was just reading Brian Sibley's blog. Today he has a great interview with Barry Humphries who played the Great Goblin in the Hobbit film.

and in the next blogpost he comments on hearing music while visiting Santiago de Compostela


its multiplicity of multi-directional pipes filled the vast building with glorious sounds, I was reminded of Thomas Carlyle who wrote: 

 "Listen, and for organ music thou wilt ever, as of old, hear the Morning Stars sing together."

that part about the morning stars singing together is from Job chapter38.

“Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? Tell me, if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone— while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy?
