Can’t figure out who’s conducting who here but the results are impressive.
The problem with this form of religious music is putting one’s mind in a space that matches it. Not easy for un-believers like me.
Maybe the trick is to do just what the Bishop advised the actress to do “Just lie back and enjoy it"

Few if any of you will get to the end of this I suspect. It's about as heavy as classical music gets.
Myself, I've never been able to decide if the central message is misogynistic of a warning all men are essentially at core violent. Maybe both?
However, if any of you are brave or silly enough to take it on here is the libretto :- http://www.powell-pressburger.org/Reviews/64_Bluebeard/Words.html
