Cathedral of rest

"Cathedrals can be places of calm. Here, someone seeks peacefulness and rest, and finds them. Medieval music, then a chorus of penitents (from a Palm Sunday procession in Portugal), the mumbles of a priest’s sermon during mass (in Krakow, Poland), and finally the Blessing Of the Animals (here recorded in St. John the Divine Cathedral in New York City). Our seeker hears neighbors starting to snore, and drifts off into quiet sleep."
