In our year-end festivals of sacred
music, we touch a human ritual whose origins are lost in time.
For millennia, we've gathered in churches and sanctuaries to sing, worship, listen and renew our spirits. On this transmission of Hearts of Space, a year's end celebration of the treble voice, the massed chorus and the sublime world of sacred sound, on a program called HYMNS and PSALMS.
Music is by LIBERA, STATE OF GRACE, GIORGIA FUMANTI, HAYLEY WESTENRA, LUMINOUS WORLD ORCHESTRA, KEVIN KELLER, ARVO PART, and ALFRED SCHNITTKE.

A comment from a spacefan who has been with you "from the very beginning".
Now that we are entering the tenth century it might be time to start thinking about program number 1000
It would be great if some spacefan out there had a recording of "FIRST FLIGHT", program number one, as originally aired with Anna Turner, that they could upload to HOS for transmission
Here's hoping
