Prologue to the End of Time
Gospel great Goldia Haynes performs Fire.
It seems a bit surreal to end this song about The Book of Revelations with a piano flourish and applause, and it makes me think of the audience reception to pieces like the Quartet for the End of Time. Is it appropriate to clap, really? Did they clap after the premier in Stalag VIII-A in Görlitz, Germany on January 15, 1941?
